bucksavage1 Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I didn’t think we would hire him but Mark was going towards the experienced GM after hiring 3 in a row 1st time GMs. I don’t hate the hire but certainly unexpected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldManWillis Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Eh, seems underwhelming, but if he can consistently draft talented players then we might be on to something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickButera Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Wonder what his choice at QB is and how much that factored into him getting the job. Saw a random piece of info somewhere that Champ was good with AOC and Davis didn't like that. Not even sure how much truth was in it, but it makes sense. Would make me like Telesco a bit more if he has a grand plan for getting a QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpaulthe1st Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 I’m cautiously optimistic. A little concerned that we presumably need to turn over our entire scouting department yet again in a pivotal offseason but it’s undeniable that he constructed a really good roster over the past 10 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chargers had talent but ALWAYS underperformed. Isn't that more of a coaching issue though? Talent is GM, execution and performance is coaching? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuine question here....Keenan Allen never got an extension? Edited January 23 by RaisinBran *Keenan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

big_palooka Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 2 hours ago, Darbsk said: Maybe the injuries had something to do with coaching too, just poor management all round of the talent. Maybe I’m clutching at straws here, but if we have a guy who can identify talent in Telesco and a coach who can get guys bought in, working hard to improve and over achieving we may be onto something………. Feels boom or bust. But yeah, the guy who's built talented but underachieving rosters paired with the guy who can motivate and coach up players seems like good match. But when does anything ever go as planned with this team. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
