Chargers Rumors: Three Break out Candidates for 2017
By Jason Reed
The Los Angeles Chargers are looking to flip a new page next season. According to these Chargers Rumors, who are three players that could break out?
The AFC West has flipped itself upside down, and now the Los Angeles Chargers see themselves as the bottom of the pack. Several years ago, the division was dominated by the Chargers and the Broncos for a pretty long while. Now, the Raiders and the Chiefs hold that honor and the Chargers find themselves in football purgatory. According to these Chargers Rumors, which break out players can help Los Angeles’ cause?
Personally, I wish I could go back to the Ladainian Tomlinson, prime Phillip Rivers days. I will never forget when the Chargers went an outstanding 14-2, only to lose in the playoffs on a missed game tying field goal.
But, that is 11 years in the past, and while my seven-year old self was fairly disappointing it does not compare to the disappointment of the last few seasons.
Having made one postseason on a miracle since the turn of the decade, the Chargers seemingly have gone back to their losing ways that plagued the late 90’s and early 2000’s. However, that does not mean we cannot draw positives from this Chargers teams.
While they might not be playoff material, especially with an aging Phillip Rivers, there will be bright spots on the team. We already saw the explosive rookie season of Joey Bosa; despite the contract disputes at least the team is doing something right.
Therefore, with that being said, which three players can we consider as break out candidates for the 2017-18 NFL season?
