Yeah, we know Bill Parcells said “You are what your record says you are.”

But which to teams do you feel are not what their record says they are?

Better than record: Cardinals only because Kyler Murray is back

Worse than record: Steelers whose luck will run out any week now. Right guys? Any week now.

    I think we’ve had a lead in 8 out of our 9 games with under 4 minutes to play this season.

    We’re 4-5.

      Chargers are really better than their record but they are also really worst than their record.

        Reigning, defending, undisputed offseason Champs for what, 10 years running?

        Until you guys KO’d them taking the title and are running with it (so far)

        Most of these stereotypes of teams are really only true for a few years and then the narrative will change, but the Chargers have been playing this way for decades. Truly is a spectacle.

          I spent twenty years rooting for the Dolts in San Diego and it was always the same story. My personal favorite was when they had the number 1 offense and defense and still missed the playoffs. Now L.A. fans get to deal with that bullshit and probably will deal with it while that goon Spanos owns the team.

        And, the Vikings totally Chargered their game versus the Chargers, which was interesting to see another team Chargering against the Chargers.

        It’s wild how no matter how much of a shitshow our team is we almost always somehow end up slightly better than the Chargers. I always expect us to be like 5-12 while they’re 12-5 but here we are.

      Okay, but be honest. Parts of your coaching staff belong at 4-5.

      Also, were we the first team to not let you have the lead under 4 minutes (or at all)? Damn.

      I’m generally indifferent on the Chargers, but I am a Herbert fan and I’ve watched quite a few of his games since he’s come into the league. The dude should absolutely have been in the playoffs in every season of his career. The way the Chargers lose games is absolutely inexplicable. Staley is a disaster.

        This sounds really familiar to the Phillip Rivers era…Good QB that just can’t get a winning team around him

      How has Kellen Moore been for you guys? Serious non-trolling question. Just wondering if he got a hot start then cooled down.

      I think the Chargers are the most talented team overall in the AFC, but your coach is an idiot

      As a Lions fan I feel your pain. I get it. You’ll be ok, you guys have talent you just need the right staff to fully utilize it.

      I saw a stat today that was win probability added by opponents dropping interceptions, dropping their own passes, missing field goals, and fumble recoveries (either team). By that combined the metric the chargers were the luckiest team in the league
