I was determined not to buy into any Chargers hype this season because I thought the roster wasn’t nearly as strong as many others. Any injuries, so often an issue for Los Angeles, would likely derail multiple parts of the outfit. So far this season, I feel pretty good about that train of thought. A win over the Chicago Bears is not going to move me off that prediction but, if you squint at it, I do think the Week 8 result does paint a path forward for the Chargers offense.
Austin Ekeler and Keenan Allen combined for 18 targets and 15 receptions against the Bears.
