The Chargers' woes in the run game has not been a lack of Jamaal Williams, but a weak inside linebacking corps. There's hope though, as Denzel Perryman is showing us he has the skills to turn into the run-stuffer the Chargers have needed.
For a couple of years now, I've tried to preach that the main issue in the run game isn't the fact that the Chargers no longer have Jamaal Williams at nose tackle, it's the fact that they have below average inside linebackers that do not know how to play the position. My proclamations had fallen on deaf ears until the team decided to bench a certain someone for their second round pick, Denzel Perryman.
