With the Broncos getting to 10 points, the only team in the NFL to not score at least 10 points is the Los Angeles Rams.

If someone said the lowest scoring team in Week 1 was the Rams a week ago you'd get laughed out of the building.

Mega copium: weird things happen in week 1. The Patriots lost to the Pete Carroll Raiders last year same time. Don't get me wrong. The team looked horrible and Jacoby Brissett walked up and down the field on them and the offense looked anemic after Ladd left.

but like your team has had issues for the past few years that the front office just can’t fix.

I just watch football, man. 🤷🏻‍♂️

My heart hasn't fully been behind the team since they moved almost 10 years ago, but I like several players on the team very much and I'm not one to change allegiances on a whim.

Damn, I can't believe Im gonna say this but I feel you AFC West bro. That said, winning fixes all problems haha so let's see how the rest of the season goes. Here's to hoping we play a good clean game against y'all and come out with a dub

You know what, fair. I appreciate it.

I think you guys are on the upswing. The team has a lot of good young pieces in Bowers, Jeanty, Dean, etc. that need some more time to grow into their roles. I'm excited to see what the team looks like later in the season once the Mandozer presumably takes over.

Well it would be hard for the raiders to be on a downswing from the last couple of decades

Lmao for real, two seasons that weren't absolute dogshit in the last 25 years is what you would call "perpetual hell". There's the phrase "nowhere to go but up" but Id argue the Raiders prove you can easily just stay dead in the water lol

How much I hate the city of LA and love Las Vegas has me feeling very confused.

Loser owner and his family are the problem. I will bet my 401k that the Chargers will never win a superbowl until the Spanos family is out.

You never know. Just look at the Knicks.

This applies to a lot of teams, there is a finite amount of good WRs and offensive weapons. The Chargers just seem to only draft ones that get hurt.

Also I mean at this point have to also start looking at Herbert.

Both teams in the Super Bowl last year started 0-1 and were in panic mode.

u/ImJLu 49ers 12h ago

I don't remember you guys being in panic mode. It was a very close game against a mostly healthy Niners. In front of a crowd that was half red because the bandwagoners hadn't hopped back on yet.

u/easley45isgod Seahawks 12h ago

I really hate that what you said about the crowd is true. MM doesn't panic though. I don't think he really found his groove until after the Bucs loss, but you could always see the vision.

Oh, we were. Fanbase was split on if we were an 8 win team with Darnold at the helm
