<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"><!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p><em><em>The Chargers walked into Allegiant Stadium on MNF Football and waltzed away with an early 2-0 lead in the AFC West standings beating the home team Raiders 20-9 in a comfortable victory. The win was a whole team effort, but Coach Harbaugh singled out praise for Derwin James in his press conference, labelling him the ‘best safety he’s even seen in the history of the National Football League” after his stellar performance. Bolts fans know that Pete Carroll will be looking for his revenge later in the season, but for now #TDUCrew revel in the moment and enjoy this Raiderssssss Week Victory Pod. Don’t miss it!</em></em></p>

Earlier in the week, the joyous return of Keenan Allen to the Powder Blues on a 1yr deal was swiftly soured by news that franchise LT Rashawn Slater had suffered a serious knee injury at practice which scans confirmed will end his 2025 season prematurely. Yet there were no signs of the team slowing down on the field as the “next men up” performed admirably leading the Bolts to a 2-0 Preseason record. We discuss what it all means for the season this week on TDU. Don’t miss it!</em></em></p>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well fans, the first real football event has started for the 2025 season as the Chargers kicked off training camp last week. We can use this thread to discuss anything training camp related (or not) like player reports, injuries, position battles etc. The biggest blow to the team so far out of camp was the retiring of Mike Williams. I wish all the best to #81, he will be missed. It would have been great to see one last ride with Herbert to see what he could have done, but this just leaves the door open for others to step into an opportunity. From the limited clips I have seen, it looks like QJ has made some plays, Tre Harris has also looked smooth in some 1v1 drills and KLS has caught a few bombs from Herb. It will be interesting to see how the coaching staff handles the HOF game. I don't expect to see any of the big time vets like Herb, Mack, Derwin, Ladd, Slater, Alt, Henley etc. out there, but I wonder if they give the starting IOL a series or two to see how they do in their new roles? Should be interesting to see who gets some playing time. And lastly for this post, is anyone else getting concerned about this Slater deal? I am not sure what the holdup is? Every day they wait the price goes up and he is now sort of sitting in and not participating in field activities in camp. I'm not panicked, yet, but it definitely bears watching as we get deeper into camp. I know I will breathe a sigh of relief when I finally see the contract agreement come through in my notifications. Ok people, fire away with anything on your mind. Football is back!!!!</p>]]></content:encoded>

We kicked things off today with a Training Camp Preview followed by an NFC East Breakdown: that Tiffany division boasting last year’s Super Bowl winner and another final four team. Are the Eagles really that good? Can lightning strike twice for Jayden Daniels and Kliff Kingsbury? Will Big Blue lay another Big Poo and has the Dallas Star lost its shine?
