Chargers Number One Yet Again

July 18, 2007

Espn.com has released its daily top 10 list and today it’s linebackers.  For those who are unfamiliar, this system takes into account the opinions of a few men over at ESPN.com’s “insider” division, who when rank each team 1-32 at all the positions.  The top 10 picks are then made available to the general public for free in an effort to entice readers to get an ESPN.com Insider account (which you should get, by the way, because it’s awesome, especially if you play fantasy leagues in any sport).  The San Diego Chargers ranked number one on the list.

The Chargers rank so high on every one of these lists, it’s amazing that almost no one is picking them as a Super Bowl Contender.  Everyone still has a really horrible taste in their mouths from last year’s first round playoff exit.  However, the simple fact of the matter is the Chargers didn’t do anything to really address their glaring need at wide receiver, which is where they were ripped apart last year in the playoffs.   For all the re-signing the Chargers have done lately, they may still find themselves one piece away from a title.
