Chargers @ Jaguars Playoff Game Thread (i.e. NOT a Bills thread;-)

I will say this.  If there’s one coach who could pull out all the stops and come up with a super creative game plan to outfox Reid, that would be Pederson

He’s not doing that to Mahomes KC is headed to the AFC title game…again…whether or not the Bills meet them for part 3 we will see

I give Doug Pederson at least some chance to beat the Chiefs.  Staley could never do it.

The Jaguars have the type of offense that can cause fits for the Chiefs. Engram is a huge X-factor. Meanwhile the Jags D has Josh Allen which means they have a chance.

Somehow I find it weirdly exhilarating to watch this epic Chargers collapse. After how they screwed San Diego they deserve it. 
And no way Mahomes or Allen are scoring 3 points in the second half of a game like this. Herbert, you are not in their class. 

 

Mahomes scored 3 points in the second half of the AFCCG last year.....

 

Edit: Now that I think about it, Mahomes scored 3 points in the 2nd half of a super bowl too.....(9 points total no TDs)

So if we take care of business tomorrow, it’ll either be Jags or Bengals coming to OP in the divisional round.

Anyone know what the live bet ML was on jags when it was 27-0?  Should’ve put something on it considering Staley’s teams always choke.

Lawrence is in THAT conversation now. What a gutsy performance.

Not quite.  That comeback that Lawrence engineered was fantastic and he played great showing a lot of grit.  But he did throw 4 INT's in the first half.  You just can't forget that.  I would say that Lawrence is CLOSE to being in that conversation but he's not there yet.

I don’t like it either. If the opposing team wants to ice the kicker without a warm-up snap, the coach can’t wait that long to call the timeout. 
 

When has it become a “rule” that the kicking team can’t snap the ball when TO is being called to ice? 

I saw the same thing in a recent game, coach calls a TO to ice the kicker, ref runs out in front of the holder to make sure the "practice" kick can't get off.  Have never seen that in prior years.  Not sure it matters much really.

I agree with all of you.  Staley really should be fired.

 

The guy makes the playoffs and actually EARNS being fired.  No one should question it if they send him packing.  What an idiot.

He really did squander a super talented team.

I took the Chargers minus 1.5. Thanks.

 

I had the Chargers -2.5, but Draft Kings gave me a 25 dollar free bet so I put it on the Jags to win. All I needed was the the Chargers to not win by 2 or 1. These teams lol.

Exactly!! And that what separates him from being on Josh Allen level. Hebert is built like Tarzan but too often plays like Jane. The question is that on Herbert or is that coaching

On the 4 yard line.. why aren’t you running your stud RB 3 times to get the TD? Why are you even throwing it? Eat time off the clock and score a TD on the ground!  That’s coaching.. trust me I’ve seen a lot of bad O coaching that there was Patricia bad!

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

When did Bosa absolutely go off the deep end? I have never seen a player like that come totally unhinged. 

[Ta111]

How do you lose a game when you get 5 turnovers? An amazing collapse by the Chargers.

Staley shouldn’t get on the plane.  

He might not be allowed.

Right I’m thinking of that Nov game that KC squeaked out. No win just played them tough.

[78thealltimegreat]

Lawrence can make a case for being in that top 5 or 6 qb range now. I don’t want to hear about Herbert anymore dude just flat out doesn’t show up in big games. He did this several times during the regular season and last year.

Chargers' fans on their forum are having a meltdown. They want Staley and Lombardi fired. They are blaming Bosa for the loss.

I'd love a link to that

Missed everything. What happened?

 

Lawrence was Peterman in the first half. 4 INT, Jags down 27-0

 

Truly epic Charger meltdown.

 

Jags won.

Agree. It seems silly and inconsequential.

My ears are rehearing DuuuValllll echoing through the halls of the Jags stadium.
