Five out of sixteen games are already in the books this NFL season, and the Chargers are only one game away from matching last year’s loss total in what appeared to be the most forgiving stretch of the schedule. After a 12-4 finish and second round exit last year, the Chargers retained the vast majority of players who made the team successful while addressing two of the largest needs in the first two rounds of the draft with Jerry Tillery and Nasir Adderley, leading many to assume the success would be built on, or at least repeated as far as the regular season is concerned.
