San Diego Chargers Rating – 82
A rating of 82 might not be a total reach but when you look around at what the San Diego Chargers actually have, it definitely seems high. Phillip Rivers is an elite QB, probably one of the best active QBs right now to have never played in a Super Bowl. However, there are no WRs or TEs currently on staff that had more than 1000 receiving yards last year (Keenan Allen is somehow rated at an 86). Antonio Gates hasn’t been a dominant TE since 2009 and he’s only getting older. Their running game is nonexistent. Danny Woodhead isn’t enough.
The Chargers have a strong secondary on defense but are they really on par with the Kansas City Chiefs that are also rated at 82? A Kansas City Chiefs team with legimtimate star playmakers such as Jamaal Charles, Jeremy Maclin, Justin Houston, Sean Smith and Tamba Hali? Nope. The Chargers should not be rated the same as the Chiefs, the Chargers are definitely overrated.
