Is Gettleman and Rivera trying to recreate the 2009 Chargers?

In 2009 Ron Rivera was Defensive Coordinator for a Chargers Team that went 13-3 with the 4th ranked offence in the league (With Rob Chudzinski as Assistant HC). 3 guys combined for 3100 yards. Vincent Jackson (1167YDs/9TDs), Antonio Gates (1157YDs/8TDs) and Malcom Floyd (776YDs/1TD) in a Air Coryell offence with an aging LaDanian Tomlinson producing only 700 yards and change Philip Rivers really took ownership of the team.
Those 3 guys are all tall height/weight/speed guys with big hands who create a lot of mismatches for opposing teams 1on1 because they still have to respect the Run Game
 
VJax: 6ft5/240/4.46 - Kelvin Benjamin 6ft5/240/4.61
Floyd: 6ft5/225/4.44 - Funchess 6ft4/235/4.48
Gates: 6ft4/260 - Olsen 6ft5/250
 
The Offensive Line for the Chargers that year? Marcus McNeil - Kris Dielman - Nick Hardwick - Louis Vasquez ® - Jerome Clary.. not exactly a star studded cast there either 
 
With Cams big arm and tendency to throw high this might just be a coincidence, but Rivera has seen a young QB come in to his own with big bodied, big handed recievers that gives him confidence to sling it
 
Thoughts?

That offensive line is 500x better than what the Panthers have right now.

 

Just saying...their fans found out they were after some of those guys were brought in as no names and late rounders.

Too early to tell what we will be. The only guy struggling at the end of the year was Bell. I hope that either Oher or Martin can handle the left side. After all a rookie hopefully will sit for a while and learn. It works for us with Remmers last year. I think with a year experience for Turner he will be a force this year. I am already 500x more optimistic about this years line than last year. I think we will get our OT in the 5th.

    • Why Ramsey? Is Horn already hurt or something??  Hes talking about the FSU kicker missing everything, is my guess. 
    • Lol ANYONE on the ice with Orlov got worse ratings because of i5.
    • I was taught by my role models, never give whores coke. Never.  This pink stuff is what Diddy made famous years ago and I'm sure it will get released during his case. Best I know in the current 2025, you are insane/playing with death taking any of coke, pink coke, or any designer drug. You 100% must use a drug testing method. Or watch someone do half the bag in front of you. Fent ruined the fun.  Glad I never developed addiction on dragons or white lady..... Im one of those rare weirdos that just doesn't have a addictive personality. Few times Ive gone from 2 fifths a day, stop the day after for years. But Ive never tired unnatural hardcore drugs. For some reason of fate, I always seemed to be projected from using it. Now Im too old for all that poo and the drug game is at the worst point in some time.  Plus I come to realize weed is boring, hate away but its the truth.  I had one guy that I trusted to get drugs, too smart for what he was. He told me three drugs I should never try are 70% and up meth, tren, and crack. He used a chemist until........ and said that pure meth was like nothing else and no side effects minus staying up if you took too much. Said the 92% pure meth was the worst(cause it was the best and nothing compared), then tren was terrible sleep/health problems/insane rage/ it just fugs with your thinking and mind patterns. Crack was one time when he was young and dumb, never did it again. Great guy, I was too lucky to have him around.
