Let's talk about the Chargers

[Hammock Parties]

#Chargers Justin Herbert - High ankle re-aggravation. Walking w/full weight = no fracture. Lean towards playing Wk 4. MRI Mon

#Chargers Joey Bosa - Lean towards missing Wk 4. Re-aggravation often worse than initial injury

#Chargers Rashawn Slater - Pec for OL = heavily involved in blocking. High risk of missing Wk 4

#Chargers Joe Alt - Ankle. O-line often able to play the next wk but severity varies. Prob MRI pending

#NFL Injury Updates:#Lions Sam LaPorta - Video suggests low ankle. X-ray + returning = no fracture. Lean towards playing Wk 4. Practice = key#Chargers Justin Herbert - High ankle re-aggravation. Walking w/full weight = no fracture. Lean towards playing Wk 4. MRI Mon

I just hope the Chiefs don't play down to backup competition. Chiefs kinda notorious for doing this, plus they're already not playing well on offense. A win is a win,, buy we to deliver a good buttkickin to up the spirits.

I'd figured Direckshun would eventually pop in and reveal that was a shit post, but no. He was just that aggressively wrong on every aspect. It's fascinating in a way.

Has he ever been right? Looked like a typical post from him...clueless

Seems like this never plays out as hoped. I fully expect Herbert to play and play relatively well.

Or the backup QB will play out of his mind. The Chiefs are the Super Bowl for every opponent.

If we were really rolling, I could see us stumbling a bit here. Definitely looking past them.

With some of our struggles (particularly on offense), the team should be plenty motivated the get things right this week.

They won't play him with backup OTs.

Teams do stupid things to try to beat the Chiefs.

That's not a recipe to beat KC though.

2 backup tackles with a hobbled immobile QB? They have a better chance with Heinicke.

I’d sit Herbert for sure.

I hope he plays though, because you know Spags will start kicking Jones out more to find the weak OT. Karlaftis will dominate the other.

Wharton ****ing whooped Lindstrom a few times. He’ll have a big day against whoever fills in when Pipkins moves to OT.

Yes there is actually. 8.5 is a Wongable spread, which means you can tease it by 6 points with another game with a qualifying spread to get yourself a WONG TEASER. Wong teasers are when both legs of your teaser cross over both the 3 and the 7. Any other type of teaser is a generally bad bet but not these.

So you play Chiefs -2.5 with another game with a spread of 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 (teasing the dog) or 7.5, 8.0 or 8.5 (teasing the favorite).

At -110 these bets are long term profitable and you can disregard all handicapping, just blindly using the point spread as your only reference point. Not so much at -120 which seems to be the new teaser line everywhere but as far as bad bets go, it's less bad than about anything else.

If there are 3 wongable games, you end up with 4 wongs (team A&B, team A&C, team B&C, and the 3-legger of AB&C. If there are 4 or more wongable games, big money gets thrown down indeed. Wongs left and right! Wongs as far as the eye can see!
