Los Angeles Chargers NewsAP All-Pro Team features 3 Los Angeles ChargersNew Drue Tranquill Jersey Color Rush ,13commentsThe defense is known for Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram. But a trio of defensive backs are the ones to get recognized this year. PSTProof that the Chargers are one of the up and coming defense’s in the league was proven today as three players from that side of the ball were named to the Associated Press All—Pro team today.Rookie Safety Derwin James, Defensive Back Desmond King and Special Teamer Adrian Phillips were named to the team. The All-Pro team is selected by a national panel of AP media members who decide the top player for every position regardless of which conference they play in. James, who led the team with 105 tackles to go with 3 interceptions and 3.5 sacks, had an impactful year playing multiple positions. He is among four rookies to make the team. Colts teammates Quentin Nelson and Darius Leonard made the team as Guard and Linebacker respectively. Seahawks Punter Michael Dickson also made it.Chargers Cornerback Desmond King was selected as Defensive Back. The Bears’ Kyle Fuller and Patriots Stephon Gilmore were selected as the Cornerbacks. King solidified his standing as one of the leagues top slot corners this year grading as the second best corner according to Pro Football Focus. King finished with 47 tackles and 3 interceptions in the regular season. Chargers Adrian Philips may be the glue of this team’s defense, but he’s also the glue to a special teams unit that hasn'tgiven up as many big plays as season’s past. His 11 special teams tackles was one from tying with the league lead of 12. The only other AFC West team to have players on the All-Pro team were the Kansas City Chiefs. All four of their representatives were on the offensive side of the ball. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Flex Tyreek Hill, Tight End Travis Kelce and Right Tackle Mitchell Schwartz were selected. The only unanimous choice was Los Angeles Rams Defensive Tackle Aaron Donald. Other notable names to make the team were Rams Running Back Todd Gurley and Texans Defensive End J.J Watt. The Chargers hadn’t lost a game during the 2018 season away from L.A. until today, but today’s loss isn’t deterring their head coach.Anthony Lynn, whose work has been underrated in two seasons with the Chargers, acknowledged that things didn’t go well on Sunday for his team. But Lynn sees the positive.“I’ve learned that no one game doesn’t define who we are and our football season Mens Drue Tranquill Jersey , for sure,” Lynn told reporters after Sunday’s 41-28 loss to the Patriots. “And those men, they fought hard all year and there were some difficult situations that we fought back and won. And today we just couldn’t get that done. . . . I liked the way they came out and competed in the second half. And you know, I’m not sure if you can take away anything from this one game today. You know, we got our butt’s kicked today. But we can learn a lot from this year and this season from one another. It’s not a comfortable moment for us, for sure, but I think in these times we can learn a lot about ourselves. And we can grow and be a better person, better teammate, better coach.”The butt kicking came throughout the first half, one that saw the Patriots move the ball at will Cheap Drue Tranquill Jersey , with the Chargers unable to answer beyond their first drive of the game.“We couldn’t get a stop defensively and when we got on the field offensively, we got to stay on the field,” Lynn said. “You know, I think we had 20 plays in the first half and that’s just not enough plays to get into a rhythm. And I thought that hurt us. We couldn’t run the football, we got behind by three scores, kind of took our running game away from us, a little bit. And so, whenever we aren’t balanced on offense, then you know, we tend to struggle to stay on the football field.”The Chargers thrived more than struggled in 2018 Youth Kellen Winslow Jerseys , the second of three years with home games played in an undersized stadium that delivers no real home-field advantage. Come 2019, the Chargers could be in position to not only get back to the postseason but punch through to the AFC title game for the first time in 12 years, and maybe to the Super Bowl for the first time in 25.However it turns out, they have the right coach in Anthony Lynn, and the fact that his two coordinators received no sniffs for head-coaching jobs means that there will be continuity, with Ken Whisenhunt running the offense and Gus Bradley running the defense. Given the talent they have on both sides of the ball, the best could be yet to come for a Chargers team that deserves a greater following in its home market, and beyond.
