Leading the NFL in sacks now seems attainable for the Chargers after the signing of Bud Dupree because they now have the best quartet of edge rushers in the league. Giving Jesse Minter such a deep group will allow him to get even more creative with his pressures and make Los Angeles a terror for opposing quarterbacks. Your hosts Dan and David Buy and Sell the biggest Chargers storylines and overreactions including if Joey Bosa could be the NFL sack king in 2024. The guys also get into their expectations for Joshua Palmer, who could emerge as the team's wide receiver one in a very inexperienced room. Rookie receiver Brenden Rice also could have a role in the Los Angeles wide receiving corps, but the hosts are sure they are willing to buy in on him being a starter. Locked On Chargers fan of the year Atheer also calls in and is buying Jim Harbaugh bringing winning it all in the next two years.

Joe Hortiz inherited a terrible situation when taking over as Chargers GM with a top heavy, aging roster with a bad cap situation and many obvious holes. The new man in charge found value in the draft and free agency while building a team that will be competitive in 2024 and fit the identity that Jim Harbaugh wants. Dan and David grade the general manager’s offseason so far and discuss what the fiercest training camp battle looks like right now. Joe Alt, Trey Pipkins, and Jamaree Salyer will fight it out for the starting right guard and tackle positions while four linebackers try and show which two should start in week one. The guys also get into D Line coach Mike Elston’s comments on Jesse Minter calling him the best game day coordinator he has ever worked with.

Alex Leatherwood has had a tumultuous start to his career, and the Chargers are the latest team to see if they can turn it around. The former first-round pick is likely to compete for a reserve role along the offensive line if he can outplay some of the Chargers lesser experienced depth pieces. Dan and David breakdown the latest signing and discuss reports of tight end Hayden Hurst lighting up OTAs. The former Panther is getting off to a hot start with Justin Herbert, as he tries to prove he can be an impact player on offense. The guys also get into Quentin Johnston's up and down day and ST Coordinator Ryan Ficken trying to exploit the new kickoff rule. Another interesting nugget out of practice was LB Troy Dye starting over Daiyan Henley, and the former Duck's comments on Herbert's growth since college.

Bradley Bozeman plays the exact kind of football that Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman want and he joins the show to discuss what he brings to the Chargers offensive line. After a turbulent time in Carolina, Bozeman thinks he is in a great position to succeed and show the team he should stick around and retire as a Charger. Dan and David talk with the main man in the middle about reuniting with OC Greg Roman and what he like most about the Chargers new offensive scheme. Bozeman also discusses his belief that the running game turned around, and the command that Justin Herbert shows in the huddle. The new starting center also has the unique experience of getting coached by Jim and John Harbaugh as well as winning two national championships with Nick Saban and says all three have one important thing in common. Bozeman also discusses his charity and fighting food insecurity in communities of need.

When Derwin James is right he is one of the most exciting players in the NFL, but he is coming off of maybe his worst season in 2023. James will get a fresh start with Jesse Minter and safety coach Chris O'Leary, and with a more simplified role they could help him recapture the all-pro version Chargers fan fell in love with. Dan and David Buy and Sell the biggest Chargers storylines and overreaction, like the Los Angeles season being a failure if they finish sub .500 in 2024. Fair or not, any season with Justin Herbert not in the playoffs is a failure, especially with Jim Harbaugh in town. The guys also get into why they believe the Chargers will be much better in crunch time this year, with a coaching staff that knows how to finish games.

The Chargers are going to look incredibly different in 2024, but Jim Harbaugh over Brandon Staley is where the team is going to get their biggest improvement. New DC Jesse Minter is another elite addition for Los Angeles, giving them a chance to finally turnaround what has been a bad defense. Dan and David take an overarching look at the offseason so far including the biggest question; did the Chargers actually improve on offense and defense? It's hard to argue that an offense can be more talented after losing an elite player like Keenan Allen, but it should be deeper and more balanced. It's also important to remember the team rarely had Mike Williams in 2023, and had the worst version of Austin Ekeler. The Chargers defense definitely improved, even without splashy additions, because the players they lose were often liabilities last year.

Jim Harbaugh has been a master at creating winning programs and turning disastrous situations around quickly in the past. The schedule is out and there is a road map for this team to start the year 3-0, and if they can take care of the bad teams, getting to 10+ wins in 2024. Dan and David take a look at every game on the upcoming schedule and decide if the Chargers will win or lose in very early fashion. It will be important for Los Angeles to get fat on some of the easier games early in the year because there is a true gauntlet at the end. The biggest questions will be if they can sweep the Broncos and the Raiders and find a way to steal a game away from the Champion Kansas City Chiefs.

The Chargers should have went all the way in 2006 with arguably the most talented team in franchise history, but they had an epic collapse against the Patriots. Philip Rivers was in his first year starting and it wasn't his fault they lost the game, but Justin Herbert with that supporting cast could have won a Super Bowl. Dan and David play Buy or Sell with the biggest Chargers storylines and overreactions including if the team has interest in star receiver Tee Higgins. The disgruntled Bengals receiver might be a great fit, but there's very little chance the Chargers trade for him and pay him what he wants. The guys also discuss Brenden Rice expectations in year one, and how many UDFA's could make the initial 53-man roster. New LB Coach NaVorro Bowman spoke to the media and had interesting comments, including letting out that one starting spot is Daiyan Henley's to lose.
