It’s the middle of the offseason, and a snap in anger is months away from being taken. This, my friends, is when the Chargers excel. In the realm of preseason prognostications and pundits’ picks, the Chargers are a popular choice. SI’s Peter King recently issued his first power rankings for 2010-2011, and the Bolts were the top team in the AFC and second only to the Packers in the NFL.
Are the early expectations warranted for a 13-3 team returning 20 starters? Or should a team filled with playoff disappointments be ranked lower until they prove themselves more worthy? And what effect (if any) do these early bouquets have on the mindset of the players?
Enjoying the sunshine on the practice field after another Chargers offseason coaching session, 619 Sports’ Chris and Craig talk about power rankings, practices, and their thoughts on the latest Chargers news. Listen to the latest podcast from 619Sports.Net after the jump:
