As training camp starts soon for the Chargers, offensive skill players are getting excited for their new coordinators style of play. 

When the Chargers hired Kellen Moore to be its new offensive coordinator this offseason, many people were excited to see what he could do with some of the star players.

No one is more excited than All-Pro WR Keenan Allen. 

After being the teams leading receiver the past couple years, Allen is ready to catch more balls and "go deep".

Allen's claim of having more deep balls could end up being true as the Chargers proved that they can pick up a lot of yards in the air last year. 

QB Justin Herbert was top three in completion percentage last season and top two in passing yards. 

Herbert was also one of the most accurate deep ball throwers and is amongst the best according to PFF. 

In Moore's offense last year in Dallas, the Cowboys were top ten in yards per game and players were at the top of the individual stat leaders. 

QB Dak Prescott was on pace to lead the league in passing yards before he was dealt with injury. 

Dallas' top receiver, CeeDee Lamb, also was at the top of the NFL leaderboards for receiving yards. 

The Chargers offense averaged 5 more yards a game than the Cowboys last year and Herbert outpaced Prescott when it came to passing yards. 

Now with Herbert, who is considered a top quarterback in the league, and Allen, there are many more possibilities for Moore's offense.
