The Pass Rush Possibilities of the Chargers

how do you see them using this guy then? Think he will be an all out Suggs type pass rusher? Or is this guy going to be lining up everywhere?

You guys have prob seen it but here's the sports science video on Melvin Ingram

Everywhere, IMO. His strength is his versatility, so if we just drop him at OLB and leave him there, it would seem to be a waste.

Likely he'd be eased in the rotation primarily as an OLB on either side. I don't expect them to let him loose all out yet. I'm waiting till week 4 to find out. Norv usually breaks our schedule up in quarters to determine changes effecting rotation.

I would like to see this D-line get after the QB on some nickel package:

English/Phillips Reyes Ingram Barnes

Lol, I'm really liking our front 7 hopefully we can stay healthy for the most part so Pagano can be creative and put these guys in position to get after the QB. If you see our first two picks are very athletic and I’m pretty sure they will be in on Nickel situations. I guarantee we will see more sacks this year.

I think you're pretty safe on that bet. We've seen that things can go wrong a lot of different ways. The Chargers have been putting a lot of thought (and money) into shoring up our defense. It's time for things to go right. We should get strong plays from all ares on D.
Several guys who are not new have improvements in personal health and in the players around them.
Why not now?

Yeah it seems like every year I have the same optimism and then the injury bug gets us . We have the talent on this team but we need to see these young guns put it all together and contribute like they were brought in to do. Floyd, Phillips, Mathews, and the O-line need to stay healthy. I'm hoping that this is the year that we are firing on all cylinders, because if we are we will be tough to beat!
