1. Los Angeles Chargers
Kimani Vidal had a strong performance in Week 6, but he probably won’t keep that up for an entire season. The Miami Dolphins have the NFL’s worst run defense by a comfortable margin, and a lesser talent like Vidal won’t be able to perform like that against most defenses. First-round pick Omarion Hampton will return to the field eventually, but the Chargers must trade for Breece Hall as soon as possible.
In the short term, Hall can lead this backfield in an every-down role. Down the stretch, Hall and Hampton can be the 1-2 punch head coach Jim Harbaugh wanted to have with Hampton and veteran Najee Harris.
