Previously, I graded the Chargers’ current offense heading into 2018, now that we’ve passed free agency and the draft. You can check that out over here. But this week, it’s time to move on to the defense. The defense improved greatly in 2017, becoming the 3rd-ranked team defense in the league, behind only the Minnesota Vikings and Jacksonville Jaguars. However, there’s still some areas that could use improvement.
Defensive Line
For me, the D-Line is a dangerous group with potential that still needs to improve in a few areas. Looking at the ends, you have Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram terrorizing quarterbacks and O-Lines (crazy to think just a few years ago, Ingram was a linebacker).
