There is no escaping the residue that hangs over the Chargers. You just can't sweep aside blowing a 27-point lead in a playoff game, the third-worst meltdown in NFL postseason history.
The 31-30 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars displayed a lack of killer instinct and it led to the departure of offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi and the addition of Kellen Moore to run the offense.
Moore surely is voting for the Chargers to use the No. 21 overall pick on a receiver and there are certainly reasons why picking one in the first two rounds would be a good choice.
