He must have known Jimmy would wimp out of the SB

he was injured dude he wasnt even ready in the offseason for his physical

Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers injured his knee in his team's 2008 AFC divisional playoff victory over the Colts, but he would go on to play the next weekend against the Patriots for the AFC championship.

Rivers and the Chargers would lose that game, but the quarterback's determination was more than admirable as he completed 19 of his 37 pass attempts for 211 yards.

Rivers ended up having surgery just three days after the loss to repair his torn ACL.

Ironically, that same exact mindset lead to him having 75 kids too! #YOLO

jimmy G did the same with his throwing shoulder in 2021 and it hurt his offseason value

because our fan base only watches our OL every play and highlights of other teams where there is good blocking on most of them

not saying we have an elite OL but I don't think we are bottom tier either

It's impossible to have every single unit be good to elite. It cost way too much money to have both a good defensive and offensive line, especially when you have a bunch of money tied up in other skill positions. If our line performs similar to last season with more continuity and only replacing our RT, then I believe they end up middle of the pack again, which is more than enough to help us win a title.

The problematic issue is our depth, but I trust that our front office will figure this out. We also have all our draft picks, so it wouldn't shock me if the offensive line gets an upgrade if we need it. Kyle and John won't watch this season go down the drain because of poor OLine play. I just don't think there is a rush right now to address an issue that we don't even know if it's really a weakness yet. Remember how some felt about Banks at the start of last season? He changed how people thought about him pretty quickly and Colton could do the same. If not, we'll acquire someone else to start at RT.

I trust our front office and coaches.

Statistically they were better than middle of the pack. They were top 10 actually. But they just didn't pass the "eye test" of the fan base.

That's fantastic.
I felt better about the line last year than I have in a long time, not sure if it was Deebo, CMC etc or improvement as a unit.

IMHO, it was a bit of all of the above. Foerster talks about how intense and detailed this system is and how long it takes to learn. This is why Kyle typically brings in veterans who already know his system vs. going young top talent and developing them. Banks had a red shirt year. Burford platooning with Brunskill. Brendel already knew Foerster's system for years. They needed time on the field to grow.

Throw is quick-release QB's, short-area winning YAC monsters and CMC as the best outlet ever and that all plays off each other.

With 4 out 5 guys on the line having a year together in the system should mean improvement. Maybe we jump up a couple of rankings and reach top 5 this season.

Too bad we didn't just sign him to back up Brock just before the playoffs just in case.

our OL this year (when healthy) will be the best OL we've had since Harbaugh was here.
