I don't think Slater will ever start again at LT for the Chargers unless Alt is hurt. I think Alt is going to contend for 1st team All Pro LT this season. It is Alt's natural position, and the more important position for Herbert. Slater will likely miss much of offseason/camp/preseason, implying...

FWIW I read an article recently that said you can ask Jersey Mike's to put one of their cold subs on the grill to warn/toast it. The article said it is franchise-dependent as to whether they will do it, and noted they probably would be less likely if very busy at the time. I haven't tried this...

The sub chains here in Virginia Beach are Subway, Jimmy Johns, Firehouse, Zero's, and Jersey Mike's. IMO Jersey Mike's is better than those others. There are some other good local places for sandwiches that I prefer, but they are not necessarily convenient. Our family gets takeout from Jersey...

He had zero drops yesterday. He only made 1 of 3 contested catches, but failing to make a contested catch does not equate to a drop.

My team: 1.12 Bengals, Cincinnati, TMQB, CIN - Drafted as TMQB5. Finished last season as TMQB6 in total points but TMQB2 in ppg. Betting on the playoffs, which should mean a top 5 overall scorer in this format. 2.5 Kelce, Travis, TE, KC - Drafted as TE5. Despite the generally held view that he...

Their best non-OL run blocker is TE Fisk, and he is probably a better run blocker than Pipkins, the starting RT. Fisk was inactive yesterday. They need to find a way to make him active going forward.

Your post here is either showing you didn't actually read his scouting reports or you are misrepresenting them. Most/all of those posting in this thread know better. Per PFF, 39 of his 48 rushing yards were yards after contact. On his rushing attempts, on average he encountered contact from...

Things non-Chargers fans may not realize about Herbert: This is only the 2nd time in 6 seasons that he has had the same OC 2 seasons in a row. So only the 2nd time he didn't have to learn a new offense. He has played through a lot of injuries over the past few seasons. Right now, he is...

It seemed pretty clear from the replays that Chris Jones was supposed to rush outside and contain but he instead turned inside. Jones blew it.

Did he really? His 2025 cap hit is #21 among RBs, and there are a number of quality RBs (e.g., Gibbs, Hall, Hampton) on rookie contracts with lower cap hits. I would say the market was lukewarm for Harris. IMO the Chargers did not plan to draft Hampton. The draft was essentially a worst case...

No one should have drafted him to start week 1 unless they did so knowingly to stack up every other position.

Take it for what it's worth. I honestly don't believe it matters who starts. It matters who gets snaps and who gets touches. And I expect that to be Hampton this week.

I posted this to put it on the record given others with differing opinions like yourself. OC Roman doesn't throw a lot to the RBs. To answer your question on that I could see 30 receptions for Hampton, who was known as a good receiving RB in college, and 15-20 for Harris. Some reasons for my...
