00:00And Adam Schefter tweet yesterday, Chargers announced Justin Herbert was diagnosed with
00:09an injury to the plantar fascia in his right foot.
00:12Per the team, quote, doctors have recommended approximately two weeks in a boot, followed
00:16by a graduated return to play protocol.
00:19So just starting there, you're getting ready for your season.
00:23It's a new regime, Joe Lisi.
00:25Boy, this is bad news, because if your quarterback is not going to run that new offense over
00:29the next couple of weeks and expected just to be parachuting in in September to play,
00:34this isn't a good start for Harbaugh here.
00:36No, it's not.
00:37And I've had that injury and we talked about it.
00:40It is very painful, could linger throughout the regular season.
00:44I'm shocked, guys, that this team has a price better than the Cleveland Browns, a team that
00:49made the playoffs with the first year head coach, Jim Harbaugh, excuse me, get him confused
00:55with his brother, that won a national championship with Michigan.
00:59Now they're plus one or two or right there, almost even money to make the playoffs is
01:03mind boggling to me.
01:04I don't even think they're the second best team in the AFC West.
01:08Jim Harbaugh is going to weed out the players that fit his roster and don't fit his roster.
01:13He's going to bring back physicality to the offense and defense lines.
01:17And that's not a one year fix.
01:19That's a two or three year fix.
01:20And now that Keenan Allen and Mike Williams are no longer on that roster and Austin Eckler,
01:26I think there's going to be growing pains in year one.
01:28So again, I'm selling the Chargers along with the Bears.
01:31I don't think they make the playoffs this year.
01:33I think Jim Harbaugh is the right coach, but this is a huge blow to the offense, having
01:39Justin Herbert out of preseason right now.
01:43It's not even close.
01:44I mean, new, you got Greg Roman, right?
01:47Your new OC, you got the new coach Harbaugh.
01:50You have an entire new wide receiving core, right?
01:53And now all of a sudden you're gone.
01:55Nowhere to be found.
01:56Don't just say, Joe, that he spends the next two weeks in a boot, which means he won't
02:00be out of the boot and won't be able to gradually start practicing until at least August 15th
02:06or 16th.
02:07Their final camp practice is August 22nd.
02:09The season opens September 8th.
02:11If there's any setbacks, how in the hell is he going to be ready for game one in the season?
02:16You better brush up on Easton Stick's knowledge, I guess here.
02:20Yeah.
02:21Easton Stick was a train wreck last year.
02:23I mean, absolutely.
02:24Look at that game against Las Vegas where they got blown out.
02:28He was absolutely atrocious.
02:30So again, this isn't North Dakota State.
02:32You know, you're not playing inside the dome, you're playing now with Jim Harbaugh that
02:37is expected to win at least nine or 10 games.
02:40Again, I think Justin Herbert will play potentially week one, week two, maybe if they keep him
02:46out, but it doesn't matter.
02:47It's still that they have such a high win total and such high expectations.
02:52In year number one, what a complete new offensive defensive scheme.
02:56And this team had one of the worst defense under Brandon Staley.
03:01Remember him?
03:02Coach of the Year?
03:03He's gone.
03:04It's unbelievable in terms of the expectations that we put on the LA Chargers and all they
03:09do is fail.
03:10I'm sorry, guys, selling Harbaugh on year number one.
