You show your ignorance with comments like that.
I made it clear that speed without an O line is worthless if you want to get the ball downfield.Our O line was a mess when Moss was here but thats not the case now.
Now address the part about our O line being a sieve when we only gave up 38 sacks last year and added 2 O linemen.
Blitzing the hell out of us?
If your corners are all that, and our O line is a sieve like you claim, why do you need to blitz? The Chargers employ the zone blitz and anybody who knows what that is knows that an agressive ZB that shows no respect for the run, will get burned time and time again with the run. The ZB drops O linemen into coverage and leaves huge holes to run through. If you knew your team, and the game as well as you claim to, you would know all this.
This is ultra basic stuff that you dont comprehend. Some in here dont know the game well enough to comprehend my posts so they say dumb things like that.
Good team dont blitz very often. If you have to blitz, then you arent all youre telling me that you are.
So now I have 2 football know nothings to deal with huh?
Im toying with you and if you knew how ignorant you sound, you would be embarrased.
You would have to know the game to feel embarrassed though.

newsflash you arent the only person on this site that played football, most everyone here played some kind of organized football at any level so stop acting like you are the only person in the world that has ever picked up a football. nobody brought up the speed issue until you did, you said the Raiders never had speed at WR but you seem to forget that Randy Moss is one of the fastest recievers ever. you also forget that sacks isnt the whole story in determining how good an offensive line is, you forget that putting pressue on the QB usually means you get a knockdown, batted balls, etc. just because the Raiders gave up less sacks than the previous year doesnt mean that they instantly became one of the best o-lines in the league, it just means they marginally improved. the very same rejects that sucked under Art Shell just sucked less under Lane Kiffen. and in case you didnt know when teams run a 3-4 defense the ONLY way you can get pressure is to blitz. you better go look at some stats before you open your mouth. last time i checked the Chargers were among the league leaders in sacks. the only team in the league that can generate pressure without blitizing is the Giants because of that amazing front 4. early in the season Cottrel used the zone blitz by dropping Merriman, Phillips, etc. into zone coverage and we started out 1-3, when he finally figured out how to blitz like Wade Phillips did last year the defense started getting pressure and started to force teams to give up the ball. and in case you didnt know you need good corners to constantly bring pressure, all the good blitizing teams have good man to man corners which is necessary especially in a 3-4.
