Good Afternoon Stormcloud!

The Los Angeles Chargers can secure their place in the playoffs with a win over the New England Patriots on a rare Saturday game in Foxborough. Jim Harbaugh's band of merry men can celebrate the festive season by gifting fans with the first post season action since 2022 and launch the campaign for the first playoff win since the 2018 season.

The Patriots season has been over for some time now as they sit at 3-12, as it stands this would give them the second overall pick in the draft next spring and whilst rookie head coach Jerod Mayo could try and push for a late season morale boosting win, this doesn't seem to be in their best interests considering they now have their quarterback for the future which means their clock is running on making the most of his rookie contract.

The official game day status of both teams

The injury report (above) and corresponding roster moves (in this link) make this a bit more difficult for the Bolts. It seems as if Gus Edwards and J.K. Dobbins are switching places between the starting role and the sideline as Gus has been ruled out but according to reports Dobbins, who has been out since Week 12, is ready to suit up.

The elevation of two safeties, including new signing Eddie Jackson, could spell trouble for the status of Elijah Molden's health. Although he has been declared as active he could be on a snap limit.

Sound off in the comments, StormCloud... how are you feeling about this game?!

All right. Finally able to catch a game live again. Does anybody know how and where you can get the Chargers own audio feed? These TV commentators don't look or sound like they are it.

That's the problem with running out NFL Network games because they don't run the announcers full-season.

If you're out of the LA market, the chargers app is probably the way to do it.

Tried to do his but unfortunately the audio is ahead of my TV feed

I hate it when the ball hits me in both hands.

Sloppy start. Exactly not how I hoped they would come out of the gates

The throw to Ladd was a little high, though. The QJ miss was inexcusable.

Nope, clear drop from Ladd.

I would think Ladd would call that a drop as well

Well Maye is now out with a concussion.

He's not build like a LB

Just got home to see Maye walking off. What have I missed? Our slow O?

drop from QJ on 1/10 and a drop from Ladd on 3/4.

Maye scrambled from pressure on 3rd down and took a shot to the head. He should be done for the day but the NFL doesn't take concussions that seriously with how quickly players come back from them so its possible they "clear" him.

Seems like they knew it was 4-down territory to get half the yards. (in hindsight now that they converted)

Well there was clearly no hesitation to go for it which is why I think that.

I wouldn't hesitate vs the 3-12 Patriots in their territory either.
