Melvin Gordon will stay in the AFC West after joining the Broncos. Is this the right move for him? What went wrong in Los Angeles? Can the Broncos be competitive in the AFC West?

Cowherd intervied him the other day, first time I had the chance to listen to him at length, before that the only time I heard him were in 10 second sound bites.Originally posted by Eduardo23
He came across likeable and intelligent.
He got into a pissing contest with the Charger brass over money and that usually doesn't end well especially when the guy stepping up in his role (Ekeler) was doing a better job than Gordon did.
Plus Ekeler was like Matt Forte, getting 8 targets a game or so, making 7 receptions.
Look at his final numbers for the year, 108 targets out of the backfield, 92 receptions, averaging over 10 yards per catch.
Those are indeed Matt Forte numbers.
In week five Rivers targeted him 16 times and grabbed 15 of them.
I get the feeling (I don't know this for a fact) that Gordon was getting bad business advice, most likely from his agent, and when Ekeler was tearing it up it smacked Gordon right between the eyes "Hey, maybe I should get my ass back into the game"
