Chris Chambers As a #2?

Absolutely. However the cap room is likely not there and I doubt Fox would add another playmaker to the team at this stage of the season with Moose potentially coming back next week. He would instantly be the 2nd best option at wideout for the team if we did pick him up though.

Also, blackpanther hit the nail on the head. Until we can get a QB he wouldn't be much help to us anyway.

No. He's 31 years old and he's played horrifically bad this season. Looks like his best years are behind him.

Obvious FA choices are Brandon Marshall or Vincent Jackson but both seem unlikely to hit the open market and even if they do the price tag would be huge.

I'd rather see us go after Steve Breaston or Lance Moore. Possibly Kevin Walter or Domenik Hixon depending on how they do the remaining of the year.

He was invisible this year in San Diego. He ended up no better than the #4 on that team and they don't exactly have a great WR core.

Sounds like Steve Smith excluding yesterday, so we should of cut him?

Really? Your actually going to compare Steve struggling to Chambers? Like Steve's struggles had nothing to do with having a bottom 5 starting QB throwing him the ball, while Chambers has a top 10 throwing him the ball? Steve is still the #1 on this team and Chambers had been demoted to the #3 or 4 on his team. It's not even a comparison.

    • Bryce isn't a risk-taking gunslinger.  That's just QB DNA.  No one has ever said that is what we were drafting when we went that route.  That's my point.  That's not Bryce. Can you make Alex Smith throw deep? Sure.  He will occasionally.  In the reverse, can you ask Brett Favre to just take the easy layups? Sure.  He can in moments.  But in the end, they are what they are.  as I have said, Canales probably could win more games with PJ Walker.  And Bryce is a better overall QB than PJ.  PJ Walker would also have much worse games mixed in that Bryce would.   
    • From what i see, Canales offense requires a QB that is willing to take chances to maximize the offense. XL is also the kind of receiver that needs a qb to be risky to bring out his full potential. Its just a matter of if Bryce is gonna be that QB.
    • Baker just played how Baker played.... everywhere but here. He is a risk taking gunslinger.  Always has been.  And last year was asked to be what he was.   Geno Smith was the best deep ball passer in the NFL his comeback season.  Wasn't even close that year.  Again, that's the type passer Canales has always been around in the offenses he has been part of.  The pass game that compliments the stubborn run is the deep chunk play pass game.   And that was his first investment with XL.  My continued point, is the same as going into last season.  It's a bad marriage going in.  The QB doesn't fit the scheme.  Again.  Carrol/Fox/Ron....all paired up their boring football with risk taking QBs.  And again, I'm fine if that is where we are going.  It's not my preference but that's not my argument.  I'm saying if we are doing that, we need a QB that matches it.
