The Chargers are now officially 0-8 on the season. They’re still the only winless team in the NFL.
Tomorrow is the trade deadline and they only have a little more than 24 hours to get something, anything, to help build for a better future. We all heard every last bit of buzz from the team over the weekend about how they’re not going to sell off any of their good players because they hate the way that could look to the locker room.

Buddy, 0-8 already looks pretty dang bad to every single player in that room. There’s multiple ways to keep morale high in a moment of crisis like this, but I would ultimately always go with the one that shows the players that people higher up are leaning into the idea of actively making the coming seasons brighter as opposed to doing nothing and hoping for change to occur.
This morning, let’s just talk about where you all stand in regards to trading.
Do you agree with what Jim Harbaugh and Joe Hortiz are doing? Do you think it’s the wrong mindset to have? What is the best path forward, in your opinion, if you were one of those players in the locker room? Would you want to keep players and still hope for the best? Are you just there to play football and leave?
Let us know all of your thoughts below!
