Well this was not the start we expected in the slightest. Chargers start the season off on a losing streak and we are scratching our heads trying to understand why. Who do we blame? Can we blame everyone?

That was a rough game last week, but we’ve moved past it and we’re on to Raider week. Injuries are a bit concerning but we have a Craig Experience to remind you all hope is not lost and the Chargers have made a few moves to try to help. Will it be enough?
