Vidal has played well. But there isn't a single thing that he does better than Hampton. Once Hampton gets back to being capable of full workload, hard for me to believe this will be 50/50. One might debate when that will be... week 14? 15? How can he be #19 when we know he is guaranteed to...

I don’t think Darnold is a legit MVP candidate.

I agree on all this, except I doubt Caldwell will make the all rookie defensive team unless he surges big time down the stretch. The Athletic chose a midseason all rookie team on 11/5, and Caldwell was one of 11 honorable mentions after the top 2 selections, Deone Walker and Derrick Harmon...

Harris is out for the season. He probably won’t ever play another snap for the Chargers. But, yes, Vidal has been a revelation while Hampton has been injured.

I traded him on 11/17/2024: Calling my team Team A, I got: Swift, D'Andre CHI RB Kraft, Tucker GBP TE I gave to Team B: Aiyuk, Brandon SFO WR Estime, Audric DEN RB Year 2025 Round 3 Draft Pick from Team C - turned into 3.8, Sampson, Dylan CLE RB Year 2026 Round 3 Draft Pick from Team A - my...

I doubt they will have Gadsden block more, at least by a non-trivial amount. But it could result in fewer snaps for him because they want to have TE Fisk (good blocker, 285 lbs) and/or a 6th OL on the field more. That implies fewer routes and possibly fewer targets.

I would vote for Hay - instrumental in formation of NFL; surprised he is not already in.

Cool. I respectfully disagree. Excelling with two franchises and failing with zero is a much greater accomplishment to me than exceling with one franchise and failing with two.

Holmgren was head coach for 2 franchises, with winning records for both and taking both franchises to the Super Bowl. Shanahan coached for 3 franchises, and had a losing record with 2 of the 3 and was fired early by both of those franchises (LAR, WAS). Holmgren reached a Super Bowl twice with...

It should clearly be Belichick. Next for me is Holmgren, in the event they want to make Belichick wait for some reason (which IMO would be silly). I think it is: Belichick [Massive gap] Holmgren [Substantial gap] Everyone else

FWIW, here is the Chargers' red zone production so far this season: Receiving: Allen - 11 targets, 4/31/3 Johnston - 9 targets, 5/45/3 Gadsden - 9 targets, 5/42/2 McConkey - 8 targets 4/17/2 Vidal - 5 targets, 3/16/1 Tre Harris - 2 targets, 2/14/1 Matlock - 1 target, 1/2/1 Total - 45 targets...

I disagree on Fisk. With Slater and Alt unavailable due to injury, Fisk is probably the best run blocker remaining on the roster. He is also the reserve long snapper and probably would have done a better job than Lovato if the team had used him in that role.

On the one hand, I agree. On the other hand, getting a 2028 7th round pick is roughly equivalent to getting a ham sandwich...

I'm confused. You mean you are punting in this situation?
