Not sure why the would fire the RB's coach? Honestly the RB's this guy had to work with were not all that great. Bradshaw was our best and we know he got hurt, again. Richardson was a dud from the day he stepped onto the field here. The other guys have seemed to do well considering they were cast offs or undated FA

I wonder what this means for our OL coach, Joe Gilbert, and possibly Hal Hunter

I kind of feel for those guys. Without being sure who is "pulling the strings" on personnel it's hard for me to criticize those guys. The AQ Shipley fiasco, the massive injuries that have taken place the last two years, rookie linemen etc. Don Thomas has been a huge loss and we've gotten nothing out of him. Circumstances haven't been really good with that group personnel wise.

Scapegoat for Richardson's struggles?

Uh not just richardsons struggles, when was out last 100 yard runner? The others have had a few good runs sprinkled in games but nothing comforting enough. It's still in the oline and that scheme imo.

Can't wait to see news that the defensive coordinator have parted ways now.

The RB coach probably went in at his year end review and said look, I can't help anyone succeed here with this oline and the running scheme your asking these guy to play with in. Either change your oline scheme/coach or let me out.

The playoff offensive line was solid so kill that excuse

The problem was Boom holding onto the ball, and the coaches abandoning the run

yes we were better but we weren't great. Lots of room to improve and you are thinking 2 games out of 19 warrants an all is solved response?

Not saying it solved it all, but the "it's the offensive line" excuse is getting old

Even when it was the bad offensive line, Boom still outshined Trent

The problem was the coaches waiting 50yrs to admit Trent is the worst RB to ever put a football in his hand

      Can you expend on this, why do you think that?

      No, but I would love that! Is that true? Where did you hear that? I don't think that will happen. I heard that trading Herbert would result in a huge dead cap hit for the Chargers, that would make it nearly impossible to keep or sign other players.
