Anybody else see this? He's working out at Venice Beach... man what an ego this guy has, I knew there was a reason I didn't like him.

And that gay ass tattoo of a light switch on his arm? He said that's what he's doing in that retarded dance he does is "turning off" the lights for his "lights out" nickname... what a moron.

Makes me like this play even more...

I thought maybe all that ish was just a persona he had on the field, but then I spent last season watching him basically jerk himself off every week on PFP on Fox on Fridays.Yep, he's nauseating. I said on another thread he reminds me of Mark Gastineau.

He is certainly not my favorite player on the Chargers roster, and I don't love excessive dancing/celebration. However he does bring "it" every play. I wish that Pep had half of that gametime intensity.

I think that the theatrics is one of the main reasons that you will never see the Chargers sign him to a long term deal. They can get three more seasons out of him before watching him walk away....which i assume is what AJ Smith will do.

It sure seems that way with their signing of his backup to a pretty nice deal last year. Jyles Tucker?

Yup.

I think that they are grooming him to take over after his final and his two franchise tag years. He needs to gain a little weight, and be a little better in coverage and against the run, but it sure seems that SM won't be with the Bolts more than 3 years.

They still have to sign Rivers, Vincent Jackson, and McNeill to extensions, so SM may be the odd one out.

I think I heard Mayock say there are a couple guys in the draft he thinks would be good 5 technique guys. I wish I could remember the two names-ARGH! Those are hard to find and so are NTs. I saw a list of possible NTs and it's not bad. I always listen to Mayock #1 because he played for BB and knows what to look for in the 3-4 skill wise.

      Round 1: The Carolina Panthers select OT Monroe Freeling (Georgia)

      By MHS831 · Posted

      When I arrived at college, I was 18, not too much younger than some of these draft picks.  It was not a huge school, but there were guys on the team who were 21, 22, 23....playing ahead of me.  I was seventh on the depth chart.  Those guys have been through a few seasons, were stronger, more knowledgeable.  I was a better raw player than some of them, but those other factors matter.  As I grew stronger, more familiar with the playbook, and learned what it was like to play in college, I gradually improved and with that, I rose up the depth chart.  It took most of my freshman year for the light to come on.  Had the coach thrown me into the starting lineup day 1, I would have probably failed.    And that was college.  So I agree with you based on my experience on a much lower level.  Frankly, I think that is why so many kids drafted to fill huge gaps bust.  The teams are desperate.  Anyone who looks to fill vacancies in the starting lineup through the draft is desperate.  You draft depth to develop.  For this reason, I say, "Let Walker start for a while."  Maybe Brazzell can be our WR 4.  Throw Hunter into a rotation and ask him to do one or two things.  Freeling needs some strength and he needs to work on run blocking.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.
