From the episode

this schedule is ridiculous. They just played at Seattle. Now they have to play Denver. Then they play at Kansas city. Then they play at the Rams. Then they play the Texans. Then they play at the Ravens. It does get much softer after that though.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalMatchup

Mitchell faces tough schedule next five weeks but benefits from Hampton's reduced role.

The Chargers face a brutal stretch with games at Seattle, Denver, at Kansas City, at the Rams, and the Texans before facing at Baltimore. However, the schedule softens significantly after that stretch. Mitchell's elevated role makes him a more viable option than Hampton during this difficult period.
