LT Marcus McNeil signs 5 year extension w/ Chargers

This is what happens when your O-line gets bitch slapped by da raidaaas.

McNeill should send Oakland a Thank You card.

Wrong, Mcneil signed his FT contract 3 weeks ago, and his availability for their next game has no bearing on last weeks performance.

As a holdout, McNeill was placed on the team's "Did Not Report" list for training camp, allowing the Chargers to receive a roster exemption for his spot.

Who gives a sh*t I was busy 3 weeks ago.

why didnt they just do that in the first place? trying to make a point by not having your best lineman on the field for 5 weeks and being 2-3? stupid.

AJ Smith, while being very good at what he does also has a tremendous ego.

See battles between Schottenheimer, Tomlinson et al carried out in the press for evidence.

Who says that they would have done it this year without the holdout? They could have just let him play out his one year tender, and slap the franchise tag on him next season (2012 if a lockout), and continued on.

P.S. MM may not be the best lineman on that team either, although he has been very very good.

    • agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it. 
    • I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.
    • I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
