SAN DIEGO (AP) -Norv Turner thinks this season’s San Diego Chargers can be the best team in his four seasons as head coach.
Turner bases his hopes on quarterback Philip Rivers, a defense that he says has made big improvements and a commitment to make the Chargers a better running team in the post-LaDainian Tomlinson era.
Rookies and some veterans are due to report on Sunday, with their first training camp practice on Monday morning. The first full-squad practice will be July 30.
Turner is optimistic even though wide receiver Vincent Jackson and left tackle Marcus McNeill – both Pro Bowlers – are expected to sit out training camp and the first 10 games of the season, unhappy that they haven’t been given long-term contracts.
