Like Homer J. Simpson, I am ecstatic that the regular season is finally here. After making final roster cuts and picking up three decent players off the waiver wire, the San Diego Chargers are ready to go for Week 1.
Why should I be excited about a team that finished 4-12 last season, you ask? Well, this is not your ordinary 4-12 team. This team has talent. This team is young. This team is underrated going into 2016.
And aside from injuries to wide receiver Stevie Johnson (meniscus) and running back Branden Oliver (Achilles), both of whom are lost for the season, the Chargers are relatively healthy.
