The Ugly
The run defense and the tackling more generally
Marlon Mack rushed for roughly 800 yards today. Well, fine, it was actually 174 yards on 25 carries. He scored a touchdown and a 2-point conversion. He basically did whatever he wanted for most of the game. The terrible tackling wasn’t limited to the run game with
Adrian Phillips completely whiffing on a tackle that allowed
T.Y. Hilton to score a late touchdown that let the Colts tie the game and force overtime.
Trent Scott
With Russell Okung sidelined for the first several weeks of the season, Scott is the Chargers left tackle and it is not fun to watch. Scott was the worst player on the field for most if not all of the game. He repeatedly let rushers run right by him with barely a hand laid on them. He got
Philip Rivers hit repeatedly including one blindside hit that forced a fumble.
