Twitter reacts to Chargers’ loss to Cardinals in preseason opener

The Chargers came up short to the Cardinals by the score of 17-13. Even though it was a loss, it’s still only preseason action so the win-loss column doesn’t matter.

Nonetheless, Chargers and football fans alike still had their opinion on the first game of 2019. They went to social media to voice exactly what they thought from the preseason opener.

Here’s a sampling of how Twitter reacted:

Offensive tackles continue to be a problem for this team. Fortunately, the backup QBs can run.

The #Chargers know their actual starter isn't a runner, right?

1st preseason game observations:
Easton Stick>Cardale Jones

Easton Stick is a bigger weapon on the ground than Kyler Murray. That’s what this game showed, how could you argue?

2018: Geno, Cardale
2019: Tyrod, Stick

Weird position to have this be the case, but damn did they improve those two spots

Chargers take the L 13-17 vs the cardinals. Lots of good things seen today: Tyrrod Taylor showed he’s a great option 2 for QB, Stick also showed he can bounce back under pressure. Justin Jackson showed why he is a contender for RB1 with a TD. Defense gaining more depth. ⚡️

O line still scares me but we might have something in Easton Stick 🤔…run game looked great I dig the Ekeler/Jackson combo.

Takeaways from #LACvsAZ

We are gonna be okay if @Melvingordon25 continues the holdout #EastonStick is the future QB of the @Chargers once Phil calls it quits

So glad I got to stream the game and see Easton Stick. That man has wheels

— Chargers 0-0 (@jayblack____) August 9, 2019

I felt that the Chargers defense overall could have played better look for improvement throughout the rest of this preseason
