Live game blog: Packers at L.A. Chargers

Join Tom Silverstein for updates, analysis and discussion Sunday as the Green Bay Packers visit the Los Angeles Chargers.

3rd & 7 37yd

Tom, I know Burks has the bad pectoral, but didn’t see any time on the field, where’s the upside now, with this 3rd round pick? Or future?

by Collarbone12 11/3/2019 9:13:19 PM
I don't know. I'm wondering. They seem to like the dime package with three safeties, which uses just Blake Martinez. If Burks were practicing well, I can't imagine they wouldn't use him, so they must feel he's not ready.

Madison Wisconsin - where about 85% of the snow has melted, exposing all the leaves that need to be raked. Tom, anything known about how long Tonyan will be out? Do you think they will play Sternberger on STs only or will he get snaps with the offense?

by MJ 11/3/2019 9:14:22 PM
I thought Tonyan would be up this game, but I guess they're going to wait another week or so. I would say Sternberger will only see a handful of snaps on offense unless he surprises everyone and catches some balls. But don't look for him to play much.

So does anyone in LA care about football. Seems like a big mistake to have 2 teams there neither team seems to draw well

by flpackerfan 11/3/2019 9:15:09 PM
Yeah, sure does. The Chargers are going to have to really get good for anyone to care.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:15:30 PM
During presser’s MLF seems thoughtful, pleasant, and very genuine. What are your impressions of him?

by Dirty Martini 11/3/2019 9:15:35 PM
So far so good. He's had a charmed start to the season and so we haven't seen him in the worst circumstances. But I've liked what I've seen so far.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:16:12 PM
What was the purpose of putting 2 teams in LA? Window dressing for Sponsors?

by JP Port A 11/3/2019 9:16:16 PM
TV advertising. Making the networks pay big for having LA access.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:16:42 PM
Tom I know its next but how do the packers defend mccaffrey.

by GriffyX 11/3/2019 9:16:49 PM
Hope he's hurt?

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:16:56 PM
Charger game are 9th home game for teams that travel.

by DaQuan 11/3/2019 9:16:59 PM
I lived in LA in the 80s, when they had the Rams and the Raiders. Unless you're constantly going deep in the playoffs, LA isn't really a good NFL city.

SoCal is a bunch of fair weathered fans when it comes to sports

by Bongo 11/3/2019 9:17:05 PM
Tom, according to your preseason prediction, this game starts a 9 game loss streak for the Pack. What's your revised prediction for the Pack's season record, or are you holding fast to the 7-9 prediction?

by MJ 11/3/2019 9:17:12 PM
I'm not going to bail on myself this early in the season!

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:17:30 PM
Hi Tom from Rick in Victoria Texas

by Sponge01 11/3/2019 9:17:32 PM
What is the KR, Tremon's, position? CB? Safety? And can he play it decently?

by MikeB 11/3/2019 9:17:36 PM
He's a cornerback although I believe KC experimented with him on offense a little bit.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:17:52 PM
Tom, do the Bolts try and put a spy on Jones much like they do on AR when hes in scranble mode?

by Bamabadger65 11/3/2019 9:17:56 PM
No. That's not really possible. But they can double him when he splits out wide.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:18:15 PM
Big game for MVS today?

by JD 11/3/2019 9:18:19 PM
I don't know.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:18:24 PM
Can we pressure LAC QB today what are odds?

by SerbPackerBG 11/3/2019 9:18:27 PM
LA has been better pass blocking than run blocking, but they're going to want to establish the run more after firing OC Ken Whisenhunt.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:19:06 PM
National anthem, hang on.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:19:18 PM
Play ball!

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:20:45 PM
Is Martinez with the club hand today?

by SerbPackerBG 11/3/2019 9:21:30 PM
No, looks more like a wrist guard.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:21:37 PM
Hello from Minneapolis Tom! Vikings lost. Yay!!!

by BobinMN 11/3/2019 9:21:43 PM
Tom, what a great week on the site. Your podcasts with Jim were outstanding, Ryan Wood wrote a couple great pieces - on the Smiths coming to town and on the throw to Kumerow last week - and the Xs and Os and 5 Questions were great. So were the articles. Love learning about the game and franchise with the ink- and byte-stained wretches on the crew

by Dan V. 11/3/2019 9:21:54 PM
who did you pick in this one? Worrried about a let down.

by Mikewho? 11/3/2019 9:22:02 PM
Took the Packers.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:22:05 PM
This game is about fundamentals....blocking and tackling....the Bolts front line will be "blocked around" and they will struggle to tackle as our linemen get to the second level.

by Bongo 11/3/2019 9:22:09 PM
How much does Adsms play

by Bob 11/3/2019 9:22:11 PM
I would guess 25-30 snaps.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:22:16 PM
Tom is surface there grass or turf?

by JG 11/3/2019 9:22:18 PM
Grass.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:22:20 PM
Tom who do think is returning punts today for packers

by GriffyX 11/3/2019 9:22:26 PM
I think it will be Tramon Smith.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:22:35 PM
What's the percentage of packers fans in the stands

by flpackerfan 11/3/2019 9:22:38 PM
Right now, it's looking like about 70-75%.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:22:52 PM
Casey Hayward one of the captains for the Chargers.

by Tom Silverstein 11/3/2019 9:23:06 PM
Packers call heads. It's heads. Packers defer and will kick.
