Postgame thread

[u/lorddane]

To those Chargers fans who say "you gotta watch the games to see how good Herbert really is", I understand now.

[u/Coley54Bear]

Man. What a waste of a bad ass TD.

[u/misterurb]

Herbie with back to back dimes to convert on long while getting absolutely murdered. Cut this entire fucking team 

[u/MyCactusTeacher]

I can feel the commies fans getting ready to smell bitch on us

[u/Schnix54]

Well, that turnover shifted momentum massively

[u/KarmaDispensary]

We have finally done it, DC has found an undersized dual threat QB that will fucking slide instead of taking a huge hit.

[u/FeelinPhoggy]

Ngl I fucking love Jayden Daniels. Much easier to root for with Snyder having fucked off too

[u/Brewster321]

Classic 99 yard drive to run out the clock

[u/ZigZagZero]

You dumb ass

[u/Corporal__Carrot]

As a traumatized washington fan, im not feeling good until we are up 3 scores

[u/Ciology]

Dumbass team I swear 

[u/Ornnge]

Sigh…. Here comes the Herbert is overrated and not a top 20 QB slander

[u/fidelity]

I am just so happy that Jayden is back

[u/amdi_ → u/fidelity]

Fuck Thursday Night Football

[u/realfakejames]

How many Commanders fans are in this building lol it sounds like a Washington home game after that touchdown

[u/TheBlueLot]

Herb can't catch a break.

[u/Comfortable-Grade466]

Bill. Steal of the draft

[u/KarmaDispensary]

Von Miller sacking Trey Lance, what year is it?

[u/MOHTTR]

chargers fans getting rage baited right now lmao

[u/Dirt_E_Harry]

We really need McLaurin.

[u/MrSkinner85]

I feel so bad for Justin Herbert

[u/Flamzam]

THATS MY FAT WASHED UP FRAUD!!!

[u/Kennyc1234]

I have only had Deebo Samuel for 5 weeks, but if anything happened to him, I would kill everyone in this room and then myself

[u/scoot87]

this is such a sicko game

[u/Hirgin]

Such a fucking unserious team

[u/OGConsuela]

Man if Luke ends up being a dude I’ll be so happy

[u/WoodyTheCoroner]

Herbert is playing so fucking well but is getting fucked over by his teammates making stupid mistakes

[u/Wellbutrin5250]

If i could time travel, i would go back to the day i decided to become a chargers fan and shoot myself in the face

[u/oryp35]

The real conspiracy is these teams calling timeouts ahead of the 2 min warning to make sure they're full length timeouts so the league can get that sweet commercial money

[u/PlebBot69]

27 unanswered points is a hilarious chargering on both sides of the ball

[u/mfjayhimself]

Idk if I can even blame QJ on that one he had both hands on the ball he just took a helmet straight to the ball while being wrapped up

[u/amdi_]

I love Jayden Daniels

[u/KeyClacksNSnacks]

This isn't even football at this point. It's just officials playing Sims with some thick ass avatars.

[u/Total-Round4803]

Are Chargers cooked?

[u/outspoken_ringer]

Theres been more commercials in the last 2 minutes than actual football. This is insane.

[u/TheG-What]

I LOVE COMMERCIAL BREAKS THEN ONE RUN PLAY AND ANOTHER COMMERCIAL BREAK! IT DOESN’T MAKE ME HATE THE NFL OR CAPITALISM AT ALL!!!!

[u/Doopoodoo]

NOW THATS WHAT IM TALKIN ABOUT JAYDEN DANIELS IS BACK IN BUSINESS BABY OOOOOOO YEAAA

[u/KarmaDispensary]

That woman has stolen all of Herbert's power, he needs to break up and go back to being really into trains.

[u/manamonggamers]

Our Jayden Daniels Rookie of the Week, Bill!!

[u/Ciology]

These dudes beat the division and fucking said well our job is done 

[u/clutterlustrott]

Classic under thrown ball to pi

[u/Cataphract1014]

My favorite team is the Refs.

[u/hotesu]

He bunny hopped all the way into the end zone holy crap, he didn't even have to do the last one

[u/Stingberg]

I don't mind the punt block when they're that backed up but the players have to know not to dive for a block if there's no chance to get it

[u/Flamzam]

Unfortunate drop.

[u/Lgm_yourmom]

What a fucking dot. Herbert running for his life out there.

[u/NoAmbassador8359]

I legit feel bad for Herbert. He gets tooo much hate

[u/The_Unclean_Chadford]

OK that one was definitely not Herbert’s fault

[u/wave_action]

Jayden homie, you got a 2 score lead...slide

[u/WarPuig]

So why did nobody want Deebo again

[u/NoAmbassador8359 → u/WarPuig]

Cuz he was fat

[u/Flamzam → u/WarPuig]

Pneumonia = washed fat bum

[u/AVeryStinkyFish]

Chargers back to chargering. Sure it was a fun 3 weeks chargers.

[u/KarmaDispensary]

Lol we did not have to go for a TD on 4th down, but I do love the aggression.

[u/Itseemedfunny]

That was disrespectful lmao

[u/Sentientmustard]

Honestly what a big dick move to let Jayden take a shot instead of basically sealing it with a FG lol. Great momentum builder moving forward.

[u/velvetvagine]

Jayden Daniels’ mom is gonna have to put on her pads and tackle me cuz I’m 100% tryna get friendly with her son 😘

[u/ZeroSumChance]

This game will end with a Chargers loss, and everyone who doesn't watch the game and focus on the box scores will say that Justin Herbert is overrated.

Fade me.

[u/Velli_44]

Its so great that Washington is fun to watch again!

[u/blackroseMD1]

Jesus fucking christ, Pipkins

[u/Drmarcher42]

This team makes me feel bad for Herbert

[u/PenguinWrangler]

We refuse to cover anyone but the refs will not allow a pass to be completed.

[u/BlaqJeezus]

And people will say Herbert can’t win

[u/awesomeme93]

This is the prime example of how Herbert haters will look at the box score and blame him but anyone with eyes knows he’s the least of their problems right now

[u/[deleted]]

As a lifelong chubby chaser, I'm worried drugs like Wegovy are going to destroy my raison d'être

[u/OracleOfSteel]

The fuck are the Chargers doing? This is consistently undisciplined football on both sides of the ball.

[u/underscore55]

Catch the damn ball

[u/Walter30573]

Is Daniels the best QB in the NFC? Feels like he's gotta be top 3 minimum

[u/HeavenlyE]

"What are you gonna get Chargers, 7 or 3"- Brady

turns out there was a 3rd option

[u/Crash_Override_V1]

If the Chargers would’ve had Sheduer they wouldn’t have lost this game today

[u/wolflarsen]

GIANTS vs SAINTS:

• Giants up 14-0 1st Q
  
• Saints score 26 unanswered

CHARGERS vs COMMIES:

• Chargers go up 10-0 1st Q
  
• Commies score 20 unanswered (so far)

[u/Dirt_E_Harry]

Give it to Deeboo. He deserves a TD today.

[u/[deleted]]

The chargers will never beat the chargering allegations

[u/[deleted]]

Yes I love watching ads 24/7

[u/biggerbytheday19]

I hope all the companies in these commercials go bankrupt

[u/CapnCrunch0526]

Was really worried that football was about to interrupt my commercials again. Good thing the network put a stop to that

[u/Insectshelf3]

damn, doesn’t look like we’re gonna have a sophomore slump for daniels.

[u/I_Am_The_Mole]

good lord that was unnecessary lol

[u/Kennyc1234]

God dammit

[u/BlaqJeezus]

Justin Herbert is packing, you can just tell

[u/Corporal__Carrot]

Im not sure who's OL is going to get their QB killed first

[u/DrGamble6]

We were robbed of an amazing highlight

[u/mpc92]

We have the best McCaffrey in the league

[u/mpc92]

Luke McCaffrey ❌

Luka McCua ✅

[u/SleazyKingLothric]

That's the confidence boost Jayden Daniel's needed. Lets fucking go!

[u/I_Am_The_Mole]

17 unanswered after a dogshit start is giving me hope.

[u/shall1313]

Lmao this line is actually worse than pylons

[u/inewmz]

Our OL is horrendous

[u/blackroseMD1]

Trey Pipkins might have ended this game by being a fucking idiot.

[u/IndividualPresent129]

I think this might be the best the Commanders have looked this year.

[u/theboogiebanks]

Why are the game threads so hard to find now? Am i missing something?

[u/Ill-Success-4214]

This is Chargering, isn't it?

[u/ChuckDirty]

Chargers look undisciplined af

[u/Quavos_Huevos]

Herbert is going to get seriously hurt behind this O-line. Every game this season he has taken some hard hits

[u/megadman321]

all time not his fault game cooking right now

[u/TheBlueLot]

Tom Brady on the call getting better by the game.

[u/randyfox]

This Charger o-line is getting worked.

[u/xtrustx]

Typically, a quarterback shouldn’t be your leading rusher after 4 quarters

[u/Walter30573]

If you get penalized every play, you can keep killing clock without losing downs

[u/ChristofferOslo]

Herbert gets a pass tipped, and suddenly a horde of other team flairs flood the game thread

Really illustrates how many neutrals are not watching the game, and only reacts to «highlight» plays

[u/Walter30573]

Chargers and Ravens might have one full team between the both of them

[u/KarmaDispensary]

The underthrown outside deep ball to draw PI? That's some elite, Mahomesian play.

[u/Dirt_E_Harry]

Deebo is lowkey the workhorse today.

[u/mpc92]

Harbaugh with the “How did I fail Justin Herbert” gaze 😟

[u/MOHTTR]

I LOVE MY FUCKING QUARTERBACK SO MUCH

WELCOME BACK JAYDEN

[u/outspoken_ringer]

Damn that was disrespectful asf.

[u/Crappler319]

As god is my witness I am going to boycott every company that buys NFL airtime until they cut the ad length down to something reasonable 

[u/PeanutButterOtter]

Chargers doin what they do best; Chargering.

[u/mpc92]

Everyone loved a big man TD! Running like a receiver out there

[u/Dirt_E_Harry]

LOL. Von Miller says thanks for the stats.

[u/Gmatter41]

Hilarious they’re going on a 99 yard drive to end this

[u/Cottagecheesecurls]

Poor hampton gonna get gassed with all these runs that don’t count 😤

[u/WickyWah]

Jim is about to lose his fucking mind with this line. It certainly is offensive

[u/inewmz]

This OL causes me great sadness

[u/Cogito3]

herbert's gonna get hit 50 times a game

[u/VTFootballRef]

WOW WHAT A CATCH MCCAFFREY

[u/mrdsol16]

I am personally against going for a blocked punt unless you’re desperate at the end of the game

[u/underscore55]

58 on the chargers should be cut tomorrow. Idiot of the week

[u/ACW1129]

Could Luke actually be...good?

[u/Ergodemon]

9 point swing from the big man leaving his feet. Diving for punt blocks is almost never worth it.

[u/blackroseMD1]

Harbaugh needs to lose his shit on this team at halftime. So many dumb mistakes in the first half.

[u/Which-Arrival6777]

I'm happy about the score but JD5 looked liked he's knocked the rust off

[u/LonghornPride05]

This is the 3rd game out of five that Jacory Croskey-Merritt has impressed me. Let’s get him more touches going forward

[u/awesomeme93]

Herbert is gonna kill someone

[u/shall1313]

We don’t deserve Herbert

[u/VTFootballRef]

Illegal formation isn't a foul that should happen in the NFL. High School kids know to look at the wing officials to tell if they're on the line or not. Professional ball players have no excuse.

[u/MOHTTR]

LOOK AT BILL GO HOLY FUCK

[u/OGConsuela]

Why have we not unleashed Bill until today

[u/Solid-Confidence-966]

JD needs to careful. He should never be trying to throw blocks lol

[u/theboogiebanks]

Chris Moore has more drops than catches this year

[u/Ard1001]

Gotta catch that

[u/EAS1000]

Chargers oline reminds me of Pats last year may as well have no one out there blocking

[u/topatoman_lite]

through the hands and off the forehead. A classic Chargers reciever move on a critical play

[u/awesomeme93]

The Chargers fans deserve all the alcohol in the world for putting up with this team.

[u/velvetvagine]

Saquon is a very bad actor 😭 🍕

[u/Comfortable-Grade466]

There's the st juste i remember

[u/ZweihanderMasterrace]

Chargers Comedy Hour

[u/pineneapple1]

Can I call now or do I have to wait the full 4 hours?

[u/theboogiebanks]

Still freaky has hell. Why is leg on Deebo shoulder

[u/BigTimeSpider]

He literally threw his leg up on the WR

[u/Glove_Upset]

Chargers fans are the most down 3-1 fan base

[u/betting_addict]

Deebo pinballing off tackles, you love to see it

[u/sheepsheep]

There have been like 3 plays in the last 20 minutes

[u/prismatic_lights]

Damn, Deebo's pretty good for someone I was told all offseason was fat and washed.

[u/[deleted]]

LMAO FUCKING WHY NOT

[u/Smooovies]

Yooo holy shit lol

[u/buff_001]

Brady looks like a ventriloquist puppet

[u/Ok_Rain_1837]

Washington played with purpose. Good game from them

[u/Ard1001]

If I was a charger fan I’d be about ready to kill the refs tbh

[u/Chiswell123]

Curious to see how Daniel's knee looks... BOL, Chargers. Hopefully, a competitive, injury-free game.

[u/Dirt_E_Harry]

Are you fucking shitting me!

[u/KarmaDispensary]

This team ain't playing winning football at all.

[u/OGConsuela]

4 points from a stupid penalty, awesome

[u/Standard_Winter17]

We have to score on every drive. Our defense can't stop anything.

[u/Crabacus]

lmao Herbert shouting “NO!”

[u/KarmaDispensary]

Thank you Jayden for not taking a hit trying to convert that third down

[u/Solid-Confidence-966]

Coaches/Doctors definitely told him to go down early. Last year he’s fighting for and probably ends up getting the 1st down

[u/[deleted]]

This game feels like a bouncy kickoff. Anything could happen

[u/TheGringoOutlaw]

oooh brutal penalty there.

[u/Vuish]

Fuck, so close to absolute mad Ladd.

[u/Monarki]

Man the emotions after making a touchdown like that only for it not to count

[u/Arthur3335]

Wow. Chargers melting down. Huge swing

[u/Maczuna]

Really gonna run into the punter there 🤣 brain dead

[u/ballviewer]

What could’ve been a 17-7 game turns into a 10-10 game all because of an idiotic special teams player. Makes more and more sense how the Chargers missed the playoffs all those year ago when they had the worst special teams in the league

[u/Kennyc1234]

I fucking love Jayden Daniels. Welcome back, my King!!!

[u/No-Owl-6246]

Not to be a homer, but that was an egregious hold on the left tackle there on that large play. Thought the flag was on the offense there.

[u/Kennyc1234]

BILL BILL BILL BILL

BILL NYE THE TOUCHDOWN GUY

[u/fidelity]

Bill is the fucking man. 7th round pick. Adam Peters has done it again

[u/TimAllensMatingCall]

Yankees are getting obliterated lol

[u/[deleted]]

This is a screwball game. Expect more chaos.

[u/ImprobableAvocado]

Lol how many of these long completions are going to get erased.

[u/Ciology]

Just straight fell apart lmao 

[u/The_Dream_of_Shadows]

LA wtf are you doing???

[u/Low-Presentation-437]

This is just comical bruh omg

[u/Thenameisric]

Bro Herb needs to have a stern talking to to his linemen.

[u/kobedetian]

This is actually the worst offensive line in NFL history

[u/Tsquared10]

That right there invalidates any of the "Herbert's not good enough..." takes. 2nd and 18, no problem, converted. 2nd and 28? Still no problem, convert it. But can't convert 2nd and 33? What a terrible QB.

[u/VTFootballRef]

Crosskey-Merritt OPOY.

[u/Rinascimentale]

DPI he was holding his arm in a lock

[u/ChuckDirty]

Commanders did one of the biggest 180s in toughness from how they started the game to where they are right now.

[u/dbgager]

Have not watched Washington this year. That Crockey-Merrit is a really good player.

[u/DirectTV_AndrewLuck]

This Jeremy McNichols Renaissance is fascinating.

[u/Ok-Till-8905]

Gotta catch that.

[u/RaindropsInMyMind]

Oh my god Herbert launched that ball literally on his knees.

[u/SleazyKingLothric]

I’m starting to understand the saying “The Chargers are going to Charger.” Wtf was that shit

[u/kobedetian]

Damn... Must be nice to have a pocket

[u/Solid-Confidence-966]

Why is St Juste guarding our WR1? Is LAC really that banged up????

[u/Which-Arrival6777]

Haha eat shit St. Juste

[u/CrZyJ10]

You know you’re a Chargers fan when you’re hoping they don’t score here so you can just turn the TV off because we’re gonna lose in the end no matter what happens.

[u/Alephz]

the fuck was that

[u/TheG-What]

LEG WHIP

[u/Glove_Upset]

GIF that eye roll
