Watching the Chargers and can't help but think that they have had some of the better quarterbacks in NFL history.  Dan Fouts, Philip Rivers, Drew Brees (for a short time) and now Justin Herbert appears to be good.  And yet, not a single SB appearance for any of them.  Their one SB appearance was with Stan Humphries at qb.  I don't think there is another team in the NFL that has done so little with so much.  

Packers have had a damn near 30 year period between two hall of fame QBs and have two Super Bowls to show for it. That's hard to do.

The Chargers had so many years with LT where they were a top 3 team in the league but were cursed to exist in the era of Peyton, Brady, and Big Ben.

Anyone being honest chooses Mahomes out of all the QBs today. Brady and Rodgers are over the hill to varying degrees, but, regardless, Mahomes is outright better. 

Rodgers at his absolute best was the closest I've seen to Mahomes in terms of making insane otherworldly plays with his arm that no other QB can. I recall a TD he threw against us I believe in 2015 that I could never have imagined any other QB pulling off. But Mahomes has taken it to another level and does it more often than Rodgers did. Truly a joy to watch and frankly with the Panthers having been so bad lately, Andy Reid's Chiefs and Mahomes are one of the few things about the NFL I actually do enjoy watching these days. Well, that and games like Vikings-Bills today...

the race for a top 3 pick looks insane right now ... like where are the wins?image.png.d5b933f25ad9d4b7e7ea57616f57fb5a.png

Yeah it'll be crazy, if we win just 1 more we could be looking at a pick after 10... I think the Raiders will fire McDaniels and whoever the interim is will get them another win or 2 so we could be looking at 2nd overall if we lose out.

Aside from us though, man I get so much joy out of seeing that Aints pick being at 4 and them not having it, lol

They also didn't have the best coaching staff during the Rivers years.  For the life of me, I never understood firing Schotenheimer and hiring Norv.

Jimmy G is the GWD king

I'd rather have a QB who does not look perfect and makes minor mistakes in the game, but can rack up the GWD. Too many of you want the Phillip Rivers, Justin Fields, Mac Jones, or Cam Newton type QB.

Couple a RB like CMC with a QB like Jimmy G and you will have the best GWD backfield in the NFL

What does Mac Jones have to do with Rivers, and what do either of them have to do with Fields or Cam? 2 are running QB's, Rivers aired it out, and Jones is just a shitty game manager QB who will probably not start for much longer

They can't consistently produce GWD and will choke in the clutch, in big games, and the playoffs more often than not.

They look good and pass the 1st round test though. Just not good when it comes to GWD.

      So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.

      My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
