What Experts Are Saying About Bolts' Head Coach Opportunity

... If the Chargers can re-sign free agent Melvin Ingram , they really won't have any weaknesses on defense outside of safety. This unit should remain good.”. On the other hand, before the search began, CBS sports noted that the offensive side of the ball is a reason why the Bolts are a coveted landing spot. “This would be an incredible job in the short term. Rivers is still a top-caliber quarterback. Though he leads the league in picks, he's been forced to try to do too much with his injured supporting cast. In addition to Rivers, the Chargers' roster features a young, blossoming tight end in Hunter Henry , an absolute workhorse in Melvin Gordon , and a legit No. 1 receiver in Keenan Allen , who should return from injury.". Last week former Super Bowl winning head coach and current NFL Network analyst Brian Billick explained that when coaches make their decision, the quarterback situation is always top of mind.  ...

European Carmakers Hope To Catch Tesla With Faster E-car Chargers

... new fast chargers will cost about 200,000 euros ($210,000) each. U. S. market leader Charge Point upped the ante last week by announcing stations of up to 400 k W that will be available from July. Navigant Research analyst Lisa Jerram said the number of players in the nascent market to build ultra-fast charging stations makes it difficult to call out a winner yet. "Development is underway on these chargers so there isn't a leader at this point," she said. So far, makers of charging stations are focused mainly on getting exposure and market share by installing as many as possible. But sooner or later, investors are going to want to see profits, which means that cost will come to matter more. That holds true even for Tesla, which is starting to adjust its business model as the industry grows up. Tesla cars ordered up until this week have come with free electricity from its charging stations. But owners who order their cars after Jan. 15 will ...

Chargers Reportedly Set To Move From San Diego To Los Angeles

... to a franchise-rookie-record 1,313 yards. As good as Howard's season was – culminating with being named to the NFL Pro Bowl , replacing Arizona's David Johnson – it is only the beginning. "He's nowhere near what he's going to be in this league," said Drayton, now associate head coach and run game coordinator with the University of Texas. "Nowhere.". Howard said Wednesday that Drayton had told him during this season that Howard has a chance to be one of the best backs in the league for a long time. The reasons are both physical and emotional, Drayton told __link__. Howard was a healthy scratch in the opener at Houston, the only player in uniform besides backup quarterback Brian Hoyer not to see a single snap in the game. Howard said it discouraged him at first, but also motivated him, and that was what ...

Raiders Impress Nfl With Vegas Plans; Chargers To Decide On L.a. By Tuesday

... “But I think I’ll let him make that announcement when he’s ready.”. How the Raiders’ decision ultimately plays into the Chargers’ next move is the fascinating flip-side to a situation that seems acutely intertwined. Both the Chargers and Raiders were approved for Los Angeles options a year ago when NFL owners chose the Rams’ relocation bid to Los Angeles and their $2.6 billion stadium plan in Inglewood over the Chargers’ and Raiders’ joint plan in Carson. The Chargers got initial rights to the option, and decided to hold them through 2016 while pursuing a downtown San Diego stadium initiative. That bid was rejected last November by San Diego voters, forcing the Chargers to again take a serious look at Los Angeles. But time is running out on the year-long agreement, and while the NFL extended the deadline by two days to avoid overshadowing Sunday’s playoff games, the Chargers have ...

She scored six points in the run and finished the first half with 15 points. Senior guard Erin Johnson also made a 3-pointer in the opening quarter. "We just executed the offense," Illini West coach Grant Surprenant said. "When (Liberty) went to a zone, we just worked it inside-out. We had our feet set and ready to shoot.". That got Liberty (10-10) in trouble. "You could see their confidence go up when they got the first couple shots to go down," Liberty coach John Leapley said. "They had a lot of confidence in their shot.". Meanwhile, the Eagles struggled to find their offense. Liberty shot just 20 percent from the floor and went 1 of 7 from 3-point range. Freshman Taryn Roe was held to just one field goal that came with 7:31 remaining in the ...

Playoffs May Factor Into Chargers' Hc Hire

... interview figures to follow later this week, presuming he is not hired elsewhere first. The Chargers anticipate less coaching turnover this offseason than what they experienced after Mike Mc Coy was hired in 2013. So, they may be more amenable toward waiting on the postseason picture to develop if either Patricia or Toub is coveted as Mc Coy’s successor. If Spanos’ top choice is one of the other five candidates, there is less reason to wait. The Broncos, Rams, 49 ers and Bills also still have vacancies. On Monday afternoon, the Jaguars finalized interim coach Doug Marrone as their long-term replacement to Gus Bradley. Marrone was not known to be under consideration in San Diego. It is unclear what effect, if any, the Chargers’ Jan. 15 deadline to exercise their option to relocate to Los Angeles will have on their hiring’s timing. Caption San Diego Chargers are history.

With The 7th Pick, The San Diego Chargers Select

... Theatre. Mandatory Credit: Kamil Krzaczynski-USA TODAY Sports. The San Diego Chargers finished the season with a 5-11 record and will pick seventh in the upcoming NFL Draft. Prior to late April a lot will be answered concerning the team’s location and future leadership. The latter will obviously have an impact on who is selected when the Chargers are on the clock, but the needs are obvious. Following a season in which the team suffered multiple late game collapses some offensive improvements are needed to aid a developing defense. San Diego could benefit from an upgrade at tackle or depth at wide receiver and quarterback. However, with a high pick the new head coach could elect to choose the best player available, a common trend among top picks. Who remains on the board when the Chargers select will also play a role in determining who shakes hands with the commissioner and dons the Chargers cap in round one. Following is a list of a few potential picks San Diego could make when the time arrives. Corey Davis , ...

Vance Joseph Interviews With Broncos; Chargers Up Next

... Tuesday, and as he’s done after other interviews, Broncos executive vice president John Elway tweeted about it. “[Joseph] has great leadership qualities and a strong vision of what it takes to win,” Elway wrote. The Broncos previously interviewed Falcons offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan and Chiefs special teams coach Dave Toub. Joseph is next scheduled to interview with the Chargers, who also interviewed Toub last weekend. The Chargers are searching for a new coach while facing a Jan. 15 deadline on whether they’ll move to Los Angeles.
