Spoiler, hunter or contender? My #GMCPlaybook question for @SBNation: what role will your team play? http://t.co/jBTDuZIm7O
— Marshall Faulk (@marshallfaulk) November 4, 2014
Usually, I think these questions from Marshall Faulk are too easy. This week, I think he's given me a question that's almost impossible to answer.
Could the San Diego Chargers win-out and find themselves a contender to get into the playoffs? Yes.
Could they miss the playoffs while still beating a playoff contender or two along the way? Absolutely.
I think this is the time of year and the type of situation where a head coach is really tested. The best ones can turn their team around and push them towards a playoff runs. The worst ones will see their team collapse.
Mike McCoy isn't perfect, but I think he does a heck of a job as a head coach. If I'm betting on anything, I'm betting on him figuring it out and finding a way back into the playoffs like he did last season. I vote contender.
What do you think?
