Chargers Defense Struggling To Generate Turnovers
4 years agoThe Los Angeles Chargers Defense is currently tied for 27th in the NFL in takeaways -- four interceptions, four forced fumbles (three recovered). "If the ball is thrown at you, you have to make plays," Pro Bowl defensive end Joey Bosa said, via Fernando Ramirez of Sports Illustrated. "I am not pointing fingers, but, if you want to win and be a great team, you got to call it out and you got to tell it how it is." The team's secondary has allowed 18 touchdown passes and has picked off just three passes. They are one of two teams (Washington the other) to allow at least eight 40-plus yard completions this year. Despite the lackluster results from the Bolts defense in 2020, they will be an elite defensive play in Week 11 against the winless Jets and aging quarterback Joe Flacco.
