Chargers gambled on what-ifs, and it didn’t work

The Chargers figured a few what-if scenarios would play out in their favor this season. Some of them include:

  • What if Trevor Williams returns healthy?
  • What if Jerry Tillery can become the answer to Tom Brady and the New England Patriots?
  • What if the team’s lack of health on defense was just a one-year fluke?
  • What if Trent Scott can hold his own while Russell Okung recovers?
  • What if Melvin Gordon’s return sparks the team, and the offense picks up right where it left off in 2018?

Here are the answers to each question, in order: They didn’t, he didn’t, he isn’t (for now), it wasn’t, he can’t, and boy did it not.
