Threat Level Midnight: the Hitchens problem is getting worse.

How closely did you watch the first series from the Chargers game?

First snap, Hitchens is right where he needs to be and squares up Ekeler, they collide for what could have been a 1- or 2-yard gain but instead Ekeler just bounces off Hitchens and gains about 9 yards on first down.

Next snap, same issue. Hitchens can't seal the deal.

Couple snaps later, a screen to that one RB Kelly in the flat, who is completely uncovered because Hitchens doesn't see him and is actually running deeper into coverage, away from the dude with the ball. Kelly eats up so much space so fast that Hitchens can't even get to him despite the fact it's his side of the field.

We're all used to Hitchens not playing very well, but this is reaching a critical mass, particularly because we don't really have a valid replacement for him going forward.

He wasn't playing this poorly in 2019 or 2018. This is a new level of suck.

I somewhat agree.

LB and OL I completely agree.

CB I see a need to continue to build depth, but feel pretty good really with Ward, Fenton, and Sneed. That's a very young and talented trio. I mean you need to keep adding to it, but they've kind of struck gold three years in a row there.

I think Niang will end up being a good player.

I think Gay will be a good one.

But yeah, you need to start restocking the OL and the LB corps is the weak spot on the entire team really.

I haven't watched the coaches film yet, and I didn't spend a lot of time during the game actually focusing on him, but from what I could see he had some good plays and some not-so-good plays. A couple times he really seemed kind of lost, but when he could just read-react to the play in front of him he looked good. He's going to keep progressing, IMO.

Might not see as much of him next week though. Just a guess.

Hammock was watching some Gay film the other day. I'm sure he could post some gifs.

He looked pretty much like you would expect. He's fast but raw. He missed a couple of assignments but overall didn't stick out like a sore thumb.
