With Ken Whisenhunt back as offensive coordinator for the San Diego Chargers, a new commitment to the running game will be on full display. With Hunter Henry and DEREK Watt now added to the mix, we can expect to see the team line up in run-heavy offensive formations much more often.
But with a talented trio of receivers, Whisenhunt won’t abandon three-wide receiver sets. When Whisenhunt was in San Diego in 2013, Charger running backs churned out 1,873 yards on the ground. Still, the offense had three players—Allen, Antonio Gates and Danny Woodhead—who each caught over 70 passes.
