THE SOURCES OUT LOOK ON CHARGERS SEASON 2013 SEASON...
Based on the last fur preseason games. Its clear the Chargers are a completely different team.. Offensively, defensively.... and mentally. This team has a new attitude with new players.. Sure Under Norv Turner ,, they were never blown out during preseason games,., But what did he do in the regular season.. especially the last 3 years.. losing records and no playoffs.. This years team is younger , faster and also less experienced and will make many mistakes,. youthful mistakes. But its clear what the Management wants and even us fans.. We know Rivers is on his last legs, as well as gates, hardwick , floyd.. the familiar faces we have appreciated and cheer on. Ryan Mathews.. he always Looks great in practise and preseason games. But its the regular season fumbles and missed blocks and missed games that has disappointed all of us and to be honest don't expect him to be there at the end.. Lets face it,, trends don't lie.. the chargers just haven't played consistent football until the end of the year,.. and based on playing the raiders , and chiefs late in the year ,.always bring late season wins.. The chargers have a very tough schedule starting off with the super bowl contending and well balanced Texans.. They have the most balanced team on the afc AND IF THEY STAY injury free could possibly challenge the PATRIOTS, RAVENS AND BRONCOS in the playoffs.. The Bolts will be tested early and often against this team.. Usually defenses play well , but I see a aerial show and high scoring affair.. and the winner could be the last team with the ball with 2 minutes to go... Both teams have a solid run game,, Texans a bit more consistent and outstanding pass catchers, the chargers have gates and Floyd, and someone else has to step up.. I expect a tough grind it out year for the bolts,, this year.. If they can win or steal wins at home,, they can be 9-7, 10-6 record,, meaning they have to win 6-7 games at home,. something they haven't done in 3 years,, that's means on the road,, they can be 4-4 and have a 10-6 - 11-5 playoff contending record,, But based on their tough schedule ,, they have to play well and win early and often.. We as fans don't want them to go 0-4 and then start winning like the past few years,, Its not the way to make the playoffs,, But based on what I have seen, I see a more concentrated, focused and well disciplined team that will play well this year.. But fans,, don't expect too much.. Just keep in mind we have a rookie Coach,, a rookie GM so to speak and many rookie players,, and based on past experiences . that's not a formula for winning a football championship right now..?? Maybe in a few years, but not right now.. A sound defense take years to develop and a offense needs time together.. and because of injuries to lineman and receivers.. floyd, royal.. brown, we haven't seen much chemistry or cohesion.. This team is a work in progress and growing pains will occur especially against quality teams like the Broncos, ravens , texans, and bengals,, just a few of the teams we will face and battle .. I don't expect a high flying , high scoring team.. But we will see a well coached , steady team that will make plays and keep the ball on their side ..The defense needs to make turnovers and quick outs for this team to excell.. Come Monday night,,, we will find out early if that happens.. But I see both teams letting loose and setting the tone.. The players are ready to explode and on Monday night.. or the chargers WHITE OUT.. all white uniforms,, we are going to see if this season turns out to be a fun and joyous activity.. The fans need to realize. this a new team with alot of new faces,, and because of that.. growing pains will happen...mistakes and errors and youthful miscalculations will make you wonder if this team will ever win?? Like a child entering puberty.. this team will gives us things to be happy about and will disappoint on other occasions.. But football , like life.. it doesn't matter if everything is lined up and done properly.. shit happens.. like the patriots losing twice to the giants in the Superbowl.. ADRIAN PETERSON.. remarkable season.. after a career threatening injury.. or in charger land,, a running back that looks the part,, muscles , speed , tattoos,, but doenst play the part.. He spends more time on the sideline than the Charger girls.,, Its gonna be a fun year,, but just remember the facts., New Players, coaches and systems,,, will need to gel .. in order for this team to excell.. Thank goodness the bolts play in the AFC WORST division, Both the chiefs and raiders cant decide who is the qb and both teams have defensive issues.. But the Chargers, despite their issues will provide some fun.. but don't expect too much because ,, based on trends and experience.. theirs too many variables against them.. History says rookie coaches and GMS don't win Superbowl's,, its a start,,, but dont expect miracles fans.. Enjoy the team.. because its our home team.. But also be realistic.. Injuries, inconsistent play and Rivers making Bone headed picks will hurt this team.. Its not Rivers fault,, Its his mind,, saying I have been sacked over 100 times in the past 3 years and it hurts.. Hence,, throwing passes quickly to avoid a sack or hard hit.. He's human.. the body and mind can only take so much.. But who knows, perhaps the offensive line will gel and become the 2006 offensive line that set records with LT.. oh. what a missed opportunity that year was.. But then again,. thats why we play the games.. Stranger things have happened,, The Saints , The Rams , the Buccaneers,, have won superbowls when others thought they didn't have a chance.. Hell Trent dilfer of the ravens got a ring?? Well it helps to have one of the most dominating defenses in the NFL ,,since the Monsters of the midway... Bears.. Its not going to be a easy schedule or a easy road for the chargers.. But isn't that the chargers vibe for so many years,.. Just recall their Superbowl year,. they were 1-4 and looked horrible before Bobby Ross and Stan Humphries and company got it together and made the run to the big game. the only problem,.. the Great SF 49ERS,, was there too,. and blew that team away,, kind of like last weeks game.. oh.. by the way. I predict the Niners will win this years Superbowl.. defeating the Houston Texans.. in one of the highest scoring games ever.. But thats next years show case,, for now.. Take each game,, a week at a time,, and The Bolts are going to find out early if they can compete with a Superbowl contender.. I say ,, if all the starters stay healthy and no turnovers. We have a chance,, and with the home crowd on a Monday night , could be that extra push the bolts need to start off the season on a great note.. But remember THE NFL SEASON IS A MARATHON AND NOT A SPRINT.. 4 preseason games and 16 regular season games and another 3 or so playoff games ,.. and we will have a SUPERBOWL CHAMPION.. next week starts the marathon and every team atleast for now have the same record and same enthusiasm and hope,, that the fans every year say" This is the year!".. and for that lucky team at the end,, This is the year will hold true,, I cant wait until the season starts. because its gonna be a fun year..
