The Chargers situation is dire and if they are going to turn things around Los Angeles will J.C. Jackson, Asante Samuel Jr. and Michael Davis to step up to get it done. It has also has been a tough start for young guards Zion Johnson and Jamaree Salyer who are learning on the job but have to be better going forward. Dan and David discuss which players must improve and if the Chargers could relinquish the play calling duties from Brandon Staley. Would Derrick Ansley be the better option if the defense continues to struggle? The guys also get into how Austin Ekeler showed the Chargers what they are missing without him, but he still feels unlikely to re-sign in 2024. Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!

Zion Johnson joined Zach to discuss his reaction to Justin Herbert's record setting contract and his expectations for this season. 

The Los Angeles Chargers are again poised to make a run, but the pairing of Justin Herbert and Kellen Moore has to click. Brian Baldinger of NFL Network joins the show and says the Chargers needed to make a change at offensive coordinator and discusses why he thinks it's a must win season for Brandon Staley. As a former offensive lineman Baldinger breaks down the importance of the Chargers getting Rashawn Slater back and how lucky the team is to have all-pro center Corey Linsley manning the middle. With a lot of moving parts on the line, Baldy also tells Dan and David how switching sides may help Zion Johnson and gives a great Lawrence Taylor story.

Many terrible offensive lines plagued the Los Angeles Chargers in years past but there's reason to believe the line could be a major strength in 2023. One huge factor in the improvement of the line will be the return of all-pro left tackle Rashawn Slater protecting Justin Herbert's blindside. Corey Linsley had some injury issues in 2022 and his health is crucial if the Chargers line wants to reach their potential. Dan and David discuss their confidence in the group and why the transitions of Zion Johnson and Jamaree Salyer should improve the interior. The Chargers will also rely on Trey Pipkins to man right tackle after re-singing him, and the good news is, he was quietly very good last season already.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!eBay MotorsFor parts that fit, head to eBay Motors and look for the green check.

The Chargers got major contributions from many of their rookies in 2022, and some of their selections look like absolute steals. Dan and David re-grade every pick from last year's draft class with Zion Johnson and Jamaree Salyer still looking great in retrospect. Salyer and fellow Day 3 pick Ja'Sir Taylor were both playing meaningful by the end of the season and look like insane value. The hardest players to re-grade after year one were Isaiah Spiller and JT Woods with such a small sample size. It would be very difficult to give them great grades after underwhelming results, but it's too soon to say if they can make a leap in year 2. Both of the Chargers 7th round picks from last year Deane Leonard and Zander Horvath even found ways to make contributions, but it's unclear what their role will be in 2023.

All-Time Chargers legend Shawne Merriman is excited for the 2023 season and loves that Los Angeles brought in Kellen Moore to pair with Justin Herbert. Merriman shares his thoughts on Brandon Staley and tells a great story about how he got the nick name "Lights Out". The 2006 Chargers team was one of the best in team history and Shawne tells why he would pick Jamal Williams to add to the 2023 roster if he could. Dan and David also break down Tom Telesco sharing that Zion Johnson will be moving to left guard. The Chargers line is as solid as it's been in a long time, but will need to find chemistry after the shuffling of positions.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Built BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.

Los Angeles Chargers General Manager Tom Telesco may have tipped his hand a bit on free agents Drue Tranquill and Nasir Adderley. Many changes are on the horizon and Justin Herbert will have input on maybe the biggest upcoming change, the new offensive coordinator. Will Herbert speak up about what he wants? One thing he definitely wants back is star receiver Keenan Allen, who Telesco implied isn't going anywhere. The Chargers GM also opened up on his thoughts of the 2022 rookie class. There were some highs like Jamaree Salyer and Zion Johnson, but he said he needs to see big offseason for JT Woods and Isaiah Spiller.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!LinkedInLinkedIn Jobs helps you find the candidates you want to talk to, faster. Post your job for free atLinkedIn.com/LOCKEDONNFLBuilt BarBuilt Bar is a protein bar that tastes like a candy bar.
