Being a Chargers fan since Philip Rivers first suited up during the 2006 season, it’s tough imagining what life after Phil looks like. Chargers stalwarts such as Eric Weddle, Mike Scifres, and Nick Hardwick have moved on, and it won’t be long until Rivers and Antonio Gates join the others in figuring out life after the lightning bolts.
It’s a bleak thought. Telesco toils in signing the player he described as “our guy” over and over, shooting down our confidence in the Spanos family during this drawn-out period of stadium limbo. Will fans even care about the team if they move to Los Angeles?
