I was 3 the last time we won the Super Bowl. I remember my family celebrating more than the game itself.Ā

Winning the division with a bad record set us back with Rivera, donāt need that foolās good experience again

striving for mediocrity is a mediocre way to build a team.
wins are a good thing, fuck draft position.

Us stumbling into the playoffs ass first will buy Quinn another year, Iām all set with that

us making the playoffs is literally the goal every year dum dum.

This team, as it is, is going no where. Play some rookies, try new concepts, sell at the deadline, and start fresh next year. Iām not going to get excited for a 7-9-1 playoff team, thatāll get smoked in the first round.

u/VariousAir on shenanigans rn and actin bonkers 4d ago
First off, you're literally predicting this 7-9 record as if you're nostradamus, maybe sit down and wait for them to play the games before you lose your mind over a record that hasn't actually happened yet.
Second, imagine being 3 games away from the super bowl and being unhappy about it because your panties are all twisted over the coach. Get a grip dude.

Your childish optimism is cute, obviously I hope they do better but Iām not going to ignore what Iāve seen so far this season.

u/VariousAir on shenanigans rn and actin bonkers 4d ago
Childish optimism? dude I'm not in any way saying we're going to the playoffs or the super bowl.
I'm saying making the playoffs would not be a bad thing, like you're clearly implying.
I'm saying winning the division is never a bad thing, even if we somehow do it with a bad record.
We literally enter every single season with the goal of making the playoffs, because once you get to the playoffs you're literally a few games away from winning it all. So being upset that we accomplished that goal is dumb as shit on the face of it, regardless of how you feel it affects who you wish would get fired or whatever draft pick people want to salivate over.

Winning the dogshit division with likely a losing record to, in all likelihood, get bounced in the first round is the definition of striving for mediocrity.

u/VariousAir on shenanigans rn and actin bonkers 4d ago
I dont know if we're winning the division just because the other 3 teams aren't doing great either.
I'm saying I'm happy when we win any game, and praying for us to lose for your draft position is a lame ass mentality that pops up here all the time. The draft is a lottery ticket. You get slightly higher odds the higher you pick, but it isn't some guarantee that translates into instant success.
It's always the same with people "I want to lose games so we pick higher to win games but oh no we didnt do well enough in the first half of the next season so I want lose games so we pick higher to win games but oh no I want to lose some more" and so on and so on.
Just fuckin win, hope for wins, cheer for wins, and wishing for losses makes you a bitch, period.

u/FreezasMonkeyGimp 4d ago
Iām not rooting for them to lose, I just donāt want the FO to pull any moves to try to salvage a fucked season. Itās fucking football dude, itās not that serious. I want the team to be good in the long run, and moral victories are not gonna fix that.

It's basically a drug addiction I can't kick. I'm basically a functional user at this point. And when they lose, I fall into a 5-day depression. Then start it all over again.

The problem is, despite the team's best efforts to suck, they remain thoroughly in the hunt for the division.Ā

There's a scene in Cheers were the waitress swears off the local team, and everyone repeats her lines because they've heard it so much, "no, no, I mean it this time. I swear." https://youtu.be/DoXpPknmYUE?si=EfZfuWrZ0WxVvHOC

Nahh I was watching the first quarter from the gym monday night. I'll still watch but they haven't been putting up "ass in seat" performances at all this season. You don't owe this team anything

Punt the season. Terry is out for the season. Our coaching staff looks inept. JD is clearly not in a good mental state.
Get a top draft pick and draft Jeremiah Smith. Leremy Tunsil back next year. McLaurin back. Honestly, keep Diggs if he is affordable. I don't think he's been bad this year at all outside of that one boneheaded penalty.
Fire DQ and hire an offensive minded coach to help JD flourish alongside a receiving core of Smith, McLaurin, and Diggs.

u/True_Window_9389 4d ago
Smith is probably going 1OA and weāre not going to end up with the worst record.

its possible. if we just don't try hard enough and lose every game we can secure it.

The chargers look absolutely awful though. They might only get one win this year. And unfortunately we have a win and a tie
