Once again, nobody on the Chargers offense played well.
Bad decisions. Terrible play calls. 4,281 penalties on the offensive line. Way too much pressure up the middle.
McDaniel not good. Herbert not good. The line not good. Skill players not good.
Ladd McConkey is literally the only bright spot on this offense through three games, and even he has been beat up.
But what drives me insane about these Quentin Johnston drops is the timing. They are seemingly always at the most egregious moments.
Today’s drop immediately reminded me of the Packers drop in 2023. Fourth quarter. Down four. Five minutes left. Third and long. This drop brings up 4th and forever instead of a fresh set of downs.
Drops from a first round WR are bad enough. But when they repeatedly come at the worst possible moments in games, the damage is crippling.
Chargers that need to step up:
Quentin Johnston
Tarheeb Still
Cam Hart
Donte Jackson
Derwin James
Daiyan Henley
Cole Strange
Del’Shawn Phillips
Akheem Mesidor
Chris O’Leary
Mike McDaniel
JK Scott
Jim Harbaugh
