The brunt of the responsibility falls mainly on the shoulders of head coach Sean McVay and quarterback Matthew S...

  • Chargers face the Steelers after losing to Minnesota last Sunday

    Bill Seals, Sports Reporter|Nov 18, 2021

    The late, great Ohio State head coach Woody Hayes once said, "Three things can happen when you pass the ball, and two of them are bad."
