Chargers’ top positional needs going into the offseason: Offensive line

Here is the final part of my four-part series, which already included kicker, defensive tackle and linebacker.

And this is where I tell you how bad the Chargers’ offensive line was. How much better the team could have been if the line did its job. That it’s been a reoccurring problem and will never get fixed. These are statements that have been embedded in my head when it comes to the O-line.

But that wasn’t the case in 2017.

The Chargers had one of the best pass-blocking units. They finished with the lowest sack total in the league with just 18 sacks allowed; they allowed a combined 113 sacks from 2014-16.
