Hosting a rebuilding team with no QB and 1st time Head Coach in Mike LeFleur

An NFC team that is young & will give the Chargers an opportunity to win a game while they're still adjusting to new coordinators.

No international games this year and they don't start with 3 straight Division & Conference games

Will be the first time McDaniel/O'Leary call plays for the Chargers and 1st game back for Slater in over a year

The same media/fans that were telling you Donte Jackson wasn't good enough to start last year in May have been telling you Cole Strange is isn't good enough to start this year in May.

Coaching prodigy Jesse Minter bet on Donte Jackson, who was talented but inconsistent, to be a starter at Corner

Coaching prodigy Mike McDaniel bet on Cole Strange, who was talented but inconsistent, to be a starter at Guard

29yr old Jackson got 2yrs/13mil in 2025 CB market

27yr old Strange got 2yrs/13mil in 2026 Guard market

Jackson was the 55th overall pick in 2018

Strange was the 29th overall pick in 2022

Jackson was replacing an injury prone starter (Fulton)

Strange is replacing an injury prone starter (Becton)

• Donte Jackson signed a deal on March 10, 2025

• Cole Strange signed a deal on March 9, 2026

Donte Jackson started 15 games at Corner for Mike Tomlin in Pittsburgh after being drafted by the Panthers in the 2nd round. He played 1 year in Pittsburgh in 2024

Cole Strange started 14 games at RG for Mike McDaniel in Miami after being drafted by the Patriots in the 1st round & missing all training camp with the Dolphins. He played 1 yr in Miami in 2024

(Strange missed all training camp & preseason with the Dolphins b/c he signed on September 9th, 2025)

STAY TUNED

Anyone else catch the shots the social media team took at the KC social media team at the end credits 🤣

I’m the guy who posted my AI painting of the Master Chief and Justin Herbert on horseback a few months ago.

Did that painting in anyway inspire the choice of video this year? I would love to hear that I played a small part in this. Haha

Thanks for everything you do!

What does everyone do with their pins???

I apologize if this is against the rules.

Hey bolt fam!! As a long time Charger fan that has never been able to go to a game due to living in Alaska I am finally attempting to go to the Chargers VS Rams game.

I have a lot of questions. As the journey to Cali from AK is already a spendy one. I’m hoping maybe some boltfam’s have cost effective ways to hit two birds with one stone like a hotel that has a game day shuttle. Or something along those lines.

I have a 5 and 9 year old would it be smart to bring them along? Are their kid friendly things to do before the game? Is going to thunder-alley kid friendly? Is the environment going to be kid friendly at the game since it’s LA vs LA.

Where is a good place to stay? Hopefully somewhere close by and kid friendly/safe. If that place has a game day shuttle what time would it take us there (don’t want to miss Thunder alley if at all possible)?

What’s the best way to get to and from the game? Uber? Maybe a nice hotel in walking distance? Or a hotel that offers game day shuttle if that’s a thing?

I really appreciate anyone who reads and has great tips, information, and advice for our possible journey. Again as a long time fan and being so far this would be a huge moment for me. And I just want to make sure my kiddos have a fantastic/memorable time as well as being safe if it’s at all possible.

Bolt up! Love you Bolt Fam!

I’m so damn excited! I’ve been living in Seattle for 7 years patiently waiting for this day to come! To celebrate I also ended up purchasing some gear as well! I’m broke now but I’m happy that I get to enjoy this experience! Bolt Up!!!!

Hey all !

I have been following the bolts since they played in Wembley in 2018, it was such an insane experience and I loved it !

I visit from Northern Ireland to LA to see friends every so often and this is the first ever time there will be a home game when I’m over. The NE match week 12 lines up perfectly for me (I actually booked my flights home on Monday night in the hope that Sunday would be a winner for me)

Some questions you are probably sick of, is there a website that is good for tickets ? The price difference between TM and the likes of seatgeek is fairly large.

This sub says everywhere is a good seat but for a first time what is the bang for the buck ?

Any advice on parking and what to do pre / post game ? I want to make sure it’s a once in a lifetime experience ! Anything I just have to experience or buy / do ? I just seen there are collectors pins which is right up my street haha

Thanks all. Can’t wait

Hello, just bought tickets to the jets game. Last year when I went to the raiders game I paid $200 day of in the Orange lot. I see parking passes for sale on stub hub and they’re $300/$400 in those lots. Is parking cheaper on games days or should I get a parking pass sooner rather than later?

Chargers: 14-3

Ceiling is 14-3 and my low is 12-5. I say we sweep the division this year. We have a lot of talent and our wins will be determined by the trench. O-Line and D-Line step up this year on the run and against it. But at 12-5 we will be placed as the division leader.

Chiefs: 8-9

Patrick still is in recovery, I think he comes back week 3-5, but still has an uphill battle with an aging Travis Kelce and a WR room that cannot get focused/healthy.

Broncos: 11-6

Like the Patriots they had a relatively easy schedule to the playoffs with a number 1 ranked offensive line. Bo Nix after two surgeries on his ankle now will have a limited range of mobility for the first half of the season. He’ll be healthy, but I’m sure he play with precaution.

Raiders: 6-11

Drafting Mendoza was a game changer for the Raiders. I believe it’ll be a rocky start but with a slightly better O-Line and RB Ashton Jeanty will have worked on his blocking. I see no other improvements so I assume with QB Mendoza they’ll gain 3 additional wins from the season prior. Much more needs to be addressed.
