LA Chargers, Team Vibes and Players to Target and Avoid

Footballguys Staff's LA Chargers, Team Vibes and Players to Target and Avoid Footballguys Staff Published 07/14/2023

As we race toward August, Footballguys.com will look at one team per day with our quick-hitting Team Vibes and Players to Target and Avoid, where we check out the overall mood of each team's offense and let you know the players we are in on (because they are great values at the cost it takes to acquire them) and who we're out on (because they are too expensive and won't give you a good return on that investment).

Chargers, Team Vibes

  • Good - 17
  • Neutral - 0
  • Bad - 0

Staffers with Good Vibes

  • Jason Wood: Kellen Moore will unlock the offense's potential, turning it from very good to elite. And the defense can't get worse, can it?
  • Ben Cummins: Kellen Moore will elevate superstar Justin Herbert to new heights.
  • Maurile Tremblay: There's optimism that the play-calling will improve with the switch in offensive coordinators and that injuries won't be as damaging as last year.
  • Jeff Haseley: The Chargers are on the verge of big things driven by new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore.
  • Hutchinson Brown: I am so ready to see Kellen Moore bring Justin Herbert back to that elite tier!!
  • Phil Alexander: Beat it, Joe Lombardi.
  • Andy Hicks: Should be a strong unit. Does Justin Herbert finally become an elite passer or just aspire to be one?
  • Dan Hindery: Injuries to Justin Herbert, key offensive linemen, and receivers derailed the Chargers last season. Better health should lead to one of the league's best offenses.
  • Jeff Tefertiller: Justin Herbert plus Kellen Moore should be a potent combination
  • Alfredo Brown: Kellen Moore's offense should highlight Justin Herbert's strengths.
  • Christian Williams: Kellen Moore is a great addition to an offense that felt stale in 2022.
  • Jeff Bell: Elite pieces at all levels get a more aggressive coaching scheme.
  • Daniel Harms: Bye Bye Joe Lombardi. Welcome in Kellen Moore, to pair with the elite pieces in LA.
  • Sam Wagman: Enter Kellen Moore as the new OC, which should get this offense vertical very quickly.
  • Dave Kluge: Justin Herbert's rib injury last year, coupled with injuries to his best weapons, showed us the fantasy floor. Kellen Moore, a healthy offense, and the addition of Quentin Johnston could show us the potential ceiling.
  • Joey Wright: The AFC is daunting, but the Chargers have the talent to compete with the best the conference has to offer.
  • Ryan Weisse: Excellent fantasy assets everywhere and a new offensive coordinator with a fantasy-friendly scheme.
