If you don't fix the offensive line and establish a running game, it doesn't matter who your quarterback is.

Fair enough...

49 sacks in the last two seasons... That's a really bad offensive line.

At least he can afford to retire.

I don't watch much of the Chargers and most of the time it us the line... Some times it's the QB, for instance if anyone but Ben played in Pit. They would have twice the sacks... He just doesn't go down. Some fall like a bag of cats.

True but when you're going to throw deep 90% of the time, you have to have a reliable RT. As our roster got thin, Norv isn't smart enough to change up anything. He can't establish a running game to save his life.

I love our new coaching staff! Look what McCoy did with Delome, Orton, and Teabow. Whisenhunt was an amazing offensive coordinator in Pittsburgh and really revived Warner's career in Arizona.

Though we are still dangerously thin at a lot of key spots, we have the right guys in charge!

Meachem has his moments. The forced fumble the recovery for a TD in the Washington game will always stand out. Him missing his entire rookie season stands out too.

I believe in K-Stills!

The only moment I recall him having with the Chargers was that touchdown catch in New Orleans.

Maybe he could have been good if used properly BUT he's not Vincent Jackson.
