Expectations were high as the season approached. As injuries mounted in the preseason it should have been clear. Dean Spanos‘ Los Angeles Chargers will always find a way to disappoint.
The Chargers finished the 2018 season with a 12-4 record and were expected by many to compete for the Lombardi Trophy in 2019. They just needed to get healthy and possibly deeper at linebacker and they absolutely had to fix the offensive line. Simple stuff, so it would seem.
What do the Chargers do? Sign an aging linebacker in Thomas Davis and draft Sioux Falls offensive lineman Trey Pipkins in the third round of the NFL Draft.
