The Chargers were one of the worst teams in football last season. However, Phillip Rivers still had a good season, finishing 2nd in completion percentage and 8th in DYAR.

If he can get some consistency around him this year, the Chargers offense should be dramatically improved, and it’s hard to see how the defense could be any worse, especially with Joey Bosa is on the roster.

If you believe that the Chargers are to be dismissed, then you did not learn from the Walking Dead: 2014 AFC Divisional Playoff edition. I won’t believe the Chargers are gone until I get visual confirmation that Rivers is six feet under.
