**Wildcard Saturday - Chargers at Texans**(+3, 44.5) 4:30 on CBS (3 Viewers)

[Donnybrook]

LAC need to sell out to stop the run. They are killing the clock.

 

[Schmeabs]

Interesting to note, the Chargers should have been up 8-0 waiting for a punt after the non-call on the safety.

The INT overturn was sus too

Yeah, agreed.

 

[Todem]

Not bad for a middle school WR

He looks like he is in middle school you do know that right?

LOL!!!

 

[travdogg]

Herbert is straight up garbage.

This may be one of the dumbest takes I have ever seen.

You see what’s around him? Lol.

Easy to say when he is having a bad game……with literally no pass protection and a middle school kid as his best WR.

I get your point, but man, you are underselling McConkey. He's a top-20 NFL WR. He's pretty much the same size as guys like Antonio Brown, Stefon Diggs, or Garrett Wilson.

I like him…..a lot….but he needs a big physical guy on the other side.

I agree, they could use a better #2. I just think McConkey is absolutely fine as a #1.

 

[General Malaise]

Chargers just need a turnover.....c'mon script writers.

I would card him for buying cigarettes.

Use a timeout here if you stop 'em, Coach

He does need an NFL off season though. He is really small muscle mass wise. He has to build up some more muscle to survive long term. I can see him being highly injury prone staying like this physically. Not talking height….talking muscle mass and strength.

[Todem]

Someone has to teach CJ how to slide….like badly.

 

[Osaurus]

Refs are looking for skid marks

It’s been a lesson in how not to slide tonight.

 

[Steeler]

I hate instant replay. I slows the game down too much.

 

[Schmeabs]

ball game right here

Yeah, I imagine the 185 he's been at this year, will be 195 eventually. Just like with Diggs.

 

[Jayded]

Let em have it H Town. Boo this man. Boo him

 

[ignatiusjreilly]

LOL, check out the Chargers holder making a business decision on the blocked-XP return

They need to check Herberts' shorts.

Bring in Tee Higgins and it’s 1a & 1b.

But a reliable big bodied WR would be a boon to this offense.

 

[Man In The Box]

Mixon with the big boy stiffy.

 

[Zeppelin]

That's really pathetic.

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Two things have added so much to the enjoyment level of watching sports.

One is the shot tracker in golf.

The other is football players pointing which direction they're headed after every play.

I really don't know what I did before these things.

Edit: Thanks Joe Mixon!

I keep hearing that, but I think its highly unlikely. They can't outbid New England, and if its not fully about the money, Higgins will stay in Cincy.

If they bring in a vet, I think it'd be someone more along the lines of Amari Cooper. Maybe Davante Adams if he doesn't cost too much?

 

[BLOCKED_PUNT]

I hate instant replay. I slows the game down too much.

agreed but they need that ad revenue

 

[Jayded]

Well we have dominated round one in two straight years. Awaiting the typical oopsie next round

 

[ignatiusjreilly]

LOL, check out the Chargers holder making a business decision on the blocked-XP return

That's really pathetic.

Alternative is that he didn't realize the play was still live. Which would actually be worse. If I'm Jim Harbaugh, I'm very concerned that neither my kicker nor my punter seem to know the rules around blocked kicks

 

[travdogg]

Being that they'll likely draw KC, I'm not sure anything else should be expected.

Oh it’s not gonna happen. I’m just saying what I’d do if I’m the Chargers GM.

Back up the brinks truck. It’s exactly what they need.

 

[JoeJoe88]

Johnston sucks

 

[Man In The Box]

Stingley is pretty good.

 

[travdogg]

As much as he's just an average WR, sure feels like the chargers could have really used Josh palmer today.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Whoopsies

 

[Todem]

Johnston sucks

Agree on that.

Bigtime.

 

[Osaurus]

More picks tonight than in the regular season? Crazy

 

[crushedspirit]

Chargers need a legit X WR and a play maker at RB

 

[Donnybrook]

I think they need a DT. Houston just ran it down their throat when everybody knew they were going to run.

Add that to the list

 

[travdogg]

Sucks how it ended, but I think Chargers fans have to be happy about the massive turnaround they had this season, in what was supposed to be a rebuilding year. Defense was among the NFL's best, and they added a star in McConkey. No reason to think this isn't a team to take another step forward next year.

 

[The_Man]

Gotta wonder if the fire situation at home didn’t have at least some impact on what a terrible effort LA just turned in

Guess we’ll see with the Rams tomorrow. But that was not a team ready for a playoff game. Herber throws 3 picks all season then throws 4 tonight

 

[travdogg]

I think they'll make some kind of splash at RB. They want to be a run 1st team, and that's tough without a better RB. Could be a 1st/2nd round pick, could be a FA or trade, but I doubt it'll be the former Raven duo again.

It’s a decent year in the draft. A lot of slightly older backs, but some good ones. I could see them drafting one.

That's possible, though the Rams have 2 extra days, and have a "been there before" that the Chargers didn't.

lol, no.

That’s just silly.

Surprising performance today. These home dogs are always dangerous in the playoffs but Houston had just looked on the wrong path for a while.

Comee on lets be serious, do you think Herbert can lead them to the promise land.. That dude and Lawrence are two guys who really do nothing and people just gush over it.

I love Omarion Hampton (they don't pick high enough for Jeanty), but I certainly see Harbaugh/Roman not wanting to spend a #1 or even #2 on a RB, and signing someone like Najee Harris, and thinking he'll be much better with better blocking.
