There is more data to prove that Dean Spanos is more of a bad owner than there is data to support that Tepper is worse.  Spanos has known to be a terrible owner for decades. 

That's an awfully ballsy stance on David Tepper, but OK. Guess we'll see how it ages.

Not quite aware of who he may have ties to from a HC perspective. Person confirmed Wilks would go after Brian Johnson to be his OC, maybe Manuel is his pick for DC?

Staff will have a list for the HC to choose from if they don't have their own guy.  For example, Ben Johnson is 36 years old and while he's been in the NFL since 2012, he doesn't have a strong list of DC options he has ties too.  He worked with Vance Joseph for one season, but looks like Joseph could be staying in Arizona.  So front office would likely give him (or anyone ie Steichen, Wilks, etc) a list of candidates they like.

I figured he would keep Holcomb on as DC... This sounds like an indicator they may be shying away from Wilks

No it isn't.  Spanos is legit a horrible horrible horrible owner BEYOND just football.

Maybe, maybe Tepper gets there one day.  But you can't match the Spanos' terribleness in 5 years.

I mean the Spanos family has owned the Chargers for nearly 20 years and the franchise has 5 total playoff wins in that timeframe with Rivers and Herbert as franchise QBs. The Tepper era hasn't gotten off to a roaring start, to say the least, but let's see how the next 5-10 years play out.

I feel like my statements are pretty risk averse. If you read through those... you will understand why your statement about Tepper being a worse owner than the Spanos family will have no merit.

Wilks isn’t getting the job. Accept it. 

I am very pleased with how we’re handling this process. Do not give into the pressure of hiring a mediocre coach that will keep us exactly where we have been our entire existence. Talking to potential coordinators of your new coach is incredibly forward thinking. Give me Shane or Ben and let’s finally try something different for once.

      Mnf uniform combo White uni. Black helmet & socks

      By strato · Posted

      I think those silver helmets look great. The logo is fairly primitive looking but I understand why it is used.  The dayglo type blue top/bottom, I think looks like a cartoon. IOW not good. White on white is a classic look, no issue. Black on black I can take but prefer black pants with a blue top. Or white pants with the blue top.  That is about as much fashion content as I am comfortable posting. Maybe go to E or Bravo for this stuff.

      Remember when the NFC South was the toughest division (circa 2002-2006 when every NFC Championship game featured one of the four of us?)

      How many Qbs can you name better than Bryce Young?

      By strato · Posted

      You are a fair point argument guy, but I disagree that Bryce got us out of that Miami hole. You know who Rico Dowdle is, right?  Just a small quibble.    IMO when I look at him and see his output in a typical game I imagine what he did that a replacement level guy wouldn’t or couldn’t have done.  And I have trouble seeing much difference.  So assuming they can’t replace him with someone’s backup, not everybody’s but there are guys sitting, assuming they can’t replace him for probably less money would potentially be an erroneous assumption.    But based more on his relationship with the team and the guys making the decisions, the question of will they? I tend to see them sticking with him.  I never wanted him at all. But after all the misery of the Bryce era so far, I don’t have a problem with waiting until the season is complete to decide. Bring it on, I can take it.  So I am not ranting that he needs to go, although I have certainly done that and can’t say he has changed my mind to this point.  He still could.  We’ll see.
