Podcast: Locked On Chargers - Daily Podcast On The Los Angeles Chargers
Published On: Tue Nov 11 2025
Description: Los Angeles Chargers rookie sensation Oronde Gadsden II dodges major injury with quad bruise diagnosis. Can the 7-3 Chargers make a legitimate playoff run despite offensive line chaos? Daniel Wade and David Droegemeier break down the critical injury updates for Gadsden and running back Omarion Hampton, analyzing how their returns impact Justin Herbert's struggling protection. The hosts tackle whether Kimani Vidal keeps his starting role, if Greg Roman deserves more credit for managing roster deficiencies, and whether the Chargers defense has evolved into an elite unit capable of intimidating AFC contenders like the Bills and Chiefs. Key discussions include the offensive line's playoff viability without both starting tackles, the defense's impressive three-game stretch and DaShawn Hand's underrated pass rush contributions alongside Khalil Mack. Tune in for expert analysis on whether the Los Angeles Chargers' defensive resurgence and improved weapons can overcome their offensive line disadvantages in January.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!BetterhelpThis episode is sponsored by Betterhelp.
