Chargers Daily LinksLos Angeles Chargers Daily Links: Is Anthony Lynn one of the NFL’s top coaches?New Womens Austin Ekeler Jersey ,32commentsYour daily dose of Los Angeles Chargers news & notes from around the web.PDTNFL Head Coach Rankings (2019) - Mike TagliereThere’s not much sexy about Lynn, but he gets the job done. Since taking over as the head coach of the Chargers, he’s led them to a 21-11 record, one of the better marks in the NFL. He has an abundance of talent on the roster, but as we’ve seen with other coaches, that doesn’t always equal success. He may not be someone who takes his players to the next level like Sean McVay, but he gets more than enough out of them. They should be considered a top-three contender in the AFC.Teammates who could both be fantasy WR1s in 2019 - Daniel KelleyNow that Allen has stayed healthy for two straight years, he is also on a two-year run with WR1 finishes. Williams finished as the No. 31 receiver last year with only 64 targets — he and Tyler Lockett (65) were the only receivers to finish inside the top 45 with fewer than 70 targets. That came courtesy a league-leading 15.6% touchdown percentage that is likely to regress in 2019. On the other hand, Tyrell Williams’ departure in free agency opens up some work for Mike Williams, which could offset that regression and potentially boost him up another way.Who’s the ‘most dangerous new weapon’ for the Chargers? - Gavino BorquezHis skillset at the free safety position should easily translate to the next level but he does have the ability to be moved around a bit. He played cornerback early on in college and his smooth movement in his hips and feet reflect that. Because of that, Adderley may be asked to play a little bit as a slot corner in defensive coordinator Gus Bradley’s defense.Los Angeles Chargers poised for best special teams unit in years - Tyler SchoonThe team knows what it has in Badgley, but what about the punters? Long has a CFL career average of 48.8 yards per punt, and Newsome 44.44 yards Joey Bosa Jersey , including a game against Vanderbilt with an outstanding 59.6 yard average. The Chargers can only win here; both are likely upgrades over Donnie Jones, a curious decision last year only further questioned by lackluster punts.The Return of Artavis Scott - Hayley Elwood“It’s such a blessing just being able to come out here with my brothers,” Scott said of being back on the field. “Watching another season, again, and not being able to be out there, I’m just thankful to be out here running around and getting back to being my old self.”Social Media Information:BFTB Facebook Page: Click here to like our pageBFTB Twitter: Follow @BFTB_ChargersThe Lightning Round Twitter: Follow @Lightning_RoundThe Lightning Round Facebook: Click here to like our pageBFTB Manager: Richard Wade: Follow @RichardWade If you can’t beat them, join them."WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections San Diego Chargers Daily LinksSan Diego Chargers NewsSan Diego Chargers OffseasonSan Diego Chargers HistorySan Diego Chargers HumorBFTB EditorialsHow the Rams Super Bowl helps the ChargersNew,46commentsIf you can’t beat them, join them.PSTShareTweetShareShareHow the Rams Super Bowl helps the ChargersSame but DifferentFlashback to the Spring of 2017, and the Rams and Chargers find themselves in comically similar situations. Both franchises had recently returned to the city of Los Angeles, a city they each had called home at another point in their respective history’s. Both teams had just hired first time head coaches, coming off seasons where neither won more than five games. Both squads solved their problem at left tackle, locking up Andrew Whitworth and Russell Okung. Both teams franchise tagged defensive bookends in Trumaine Johnson and Melvin Ingram. Both even had starting first-round running backs from the same draft class that still can’t outperform their backups.It appeared that the city of Los Angeles had acquired two teams moving in the right direction http://www.thechargerslockerroom.com/authentic-derwin-james-jersey , but still full of as many questions as answers. The “Fight for LA” felt more like a media-driven facade that would take years to come to fruition than a premier battle of league heavyweights. Sure, the first joint practice concluded with actual fighting: but all signs pointed to this race being more of a marathon than a sprint. Welp.Flash forward to the present day, and while the tortoise has made up significant ground, the hare is crossing the finish line. After starting their career 3-6, the Chargers under Anthony Lynn have impressively won 19 of their last 25 games. The only problem is the Rams under Sean Mcvay have gone 26-9, with 2 playoff wins and a Coach of the year award already to his name. The hare hasn’t stopped sprinting since the starting gun sounded. And that’s okay, because the Rams success does not hinder the Chargers, nor should it be viewed as negative.The City of LAThe Rams playing in the Super Bowl is huge for the city of Los Angeles and its interest in football. LA is a different beast of a market to break into. A city that has nine other professional sports teams to cheer for has never really needed a football team, let alone two. Per ESPN, the 2017 and 2018 Rams had the 31st ranked home attendance by capacity. While the Chargers data is largely skewed due to playing in a 20,000-seat soccer stadium, they by far had the lowest home attendance by number of people in those years. The mocking of the Chargers home stadium situation is just; however, the Rams aren’t even keeping up with the Cleveland Browns in terms of attendance. Rams Success is Chargers SuccessNot only are the Rams setting a benchmark for the Chargers to strive for Womens Antonio Gates Jersey , their success amplifies the current rivalry of the two teams. In fact, one could even argue the Rams being bad as an even worse scenario.LA is a city of entertainment, bright lights, and story lines. The people of Los Angeles need a Yankees vs Red Sox style rivalry in their own backyard to get excited about football. In an interview with NBC Sports, Melvin Gordon stated that he “needed the Rams to lose.” Instead of rooting for the Rams to fail, realize that The Chargers are in the news on Super Bowl weekend because of the Rams. The media cares about what the third best running back on the Chargers has to say on Super Bowl weekend, and that is easily the most important takeaway from all of this.If the Rams win Super Bowl 53, the Chargers will have their work cut out for them in claiming an LA fan-base, but at least there will be a fan base to claim.
