Ozu posted:Ross said that the Chargers improved at literally every single position this year so I don't know what. On paper, they did. QB didn't change obviously RB going from Mathews to Gordon was supposed to be an upgrade WR, going from Eddie Royal to Stevie Johnson was an upgrade TE didn't change, but Green has stepped up. OL, bringing in Joe Barksdale and Orlando Franklin were supposed to be upgrades from Jeromy Clary and Chad Rinehart. DL didn't change LB, getting Melvin Ingram and Jerry Attouchu were supposed to be upgrades from the corpses of Jarrett Johnson and Dwight Freeny. CB, getting Verrett back was supposed to be an upgrade over Richard Marshall, and it has been. Safety didn't change. Kicker was a downgrade. This team is weird

Half of the playoff teams in 2012 had been .500 or worse through Week 6. Happens to at least one or two teams on a very regular basis. The NFL is good

I’ve heard, coincidentally, that Harbaugh got wind of that management sentiment and he and Tomsula barely spoke in the last several weeks of Harbaugh’s’ tenure here.

fsif posted:Where were we at Week 7 last year? Was Philip Rivers still an MVP candidate? Jets Steelers Uhhh.... Uhhh.... Anyone Minnesota....? Falcons Seahawks Yeah except for the AFCS and AFCW I could see current division winners falling off., each are individually favored right now but all 8 holding on is such a low percentage bet. The Colts are terrible but who will beat them H2H in that division, and the Broncos have such a massive lead and great defense that stumbling to 10-6 would almost certainly be enough.

Big Ol Marsh Pussy posted:the "hasn't played anyone with a winning record!!!!" argument is the loving stupidest thing you can say. it's been 6 weeks!!!! the loss to the team that supposedly hasn't played anyone is a large reason of why they dont have a winning record!!!!!!!!!! andy dalton!!!!!! if the seahawks guy is doing some "yeah well the seahawks arent actually that good" then double gently caress you!!!! Haha I wasn't making a serious criticism just thought it was funny. Packers fan was saying we hadn't beaten anybody good when neither had they. Back to actual foosball talk. Goddamn are the Seahawks bipolar as hell. It's not even game to game but quarter to quarter. Like people joke about the Seafrauds but at times they look like dominant and then it's lie they get tired and forget they are playing a game. Frustrating as hell to watch. I guess that's a text book case of mediocre with potential of being good.

All of the Seahawks losses except for the one in Green Bay were by less than one score and they've also played three undefeated teams. Their schedule still looks a bit tricky going forward, but they'll probably still be playoff bound.

Most teams would be tripping over their dicks offensively with our group of linemen.
