Camp takeaways: Chargers’ offense is a mystery for now, but starts from ground up

LA Times  

One thing for sure about the Chargers’ offensive identity: quarterback Justin Herbert will be behind it. The Chargers are searching for an offensive identity early in camp, and offensive coordinator Greg Roman said that will develop in the weeks to come. “That will dictate where we really put our focus.” Coach Jim Harbaugh has made it clear that the team will rely heavily on the run game. Newly acquired Gus Edwards and J.K. Dobbins, both former backs with the Baltimore Ravens, lead the way, replacing long-tenured back Austin Ekeler. Dobbins, who has been taking first-team snaps with the offense as Edwards eases back from an undisclosed injury that required offseason surgery, said he would like the offense’s identity to be intimidating.
