That's thing about Telesco. How many drafts has he knocked out of the park now? Hell, I'm not even talking about stupid media guys crowning the Chargers' asses too soon. I'll admit to looking at their draft classes each year and going, "Dang... they really did a good job!"

How many ****ing drafts does it take to hit a home run on before you stop being a meddling .500 clown ass team every year? Where is the issue?

We're gonna blame the head coach for every one of those missed playoffs seasons?

Never seen Herbie throw a game like Mahomes did Sunday.

At the moment, Herbert is waiting to step out of that shadow.

Chargers fans are already saying that Herbert has broken them of where they were in the past, but I'm waiting to see that on field. I think Herbert and Young Sheldon are likely to be stout regular season foes, but at the moment they just feel a lot like the prime Rivers Chargers to me. Massive expectations going into the season, but can't make that translate into consistent dominance.

They better hope they're right in trusting Tom Telesco at GM. He is entering his 10th season and has 2(?) playoff wins to show for it. He has 10 draft picks, a whole lot of cap space and Herbert's rookie contract going into next season. He has a prime chance to load up, fix the team's issues 2019 KC style, and become an elite force for the next 3 seasons. This is Telesco's time to deliver. But if he squanders this chance, that would be the ultimate Chargers thing ever.

Obviously Mahomes

But Herbert has a better gm setting up his team imo

My question still stands.

When are we going to start blaming Telesco?

How do you ace every offseason and it still comes down to this? Could it be that you actually DIDN'T ace every offseason and draft? Could it be that the players you pick just aren't that good?

How was this even a question?
