    LA Chargers...

    I know they feel pinched since Rivers left, but with Taylor, Stick and now Herbert....can they make a run in their new stadium? Gotta think Rivers would at least go 7-9 ....but the AFC West is pretty stout!
    I just think Herbert’s a hard hook to hang your hat of hope on....

    Might be a worth an investment when the NFL win totals come out. Last year their o/u was 9 1/2....

    they just drafted a QB to play 16 road games in his first season. they should've let Cam run things in LA for a while. I dont like the move. time will tell.

    During a recent interview with Zach Gelb of CBS Sports Radio, Lynn said that the Chargers did explore signing Newton, but ended up passing on the opportunity.

    "Absolutely, Cam is a tremendous quarterback," said Lynn. "He's been MVP of this league, he's led his team to the Super Bowl and he's healthy now from what I hear. Cam is going to be on somebody's roster and he's going to help somebody win a few games, but yeah, we did take a look at that, sure."

    As for why the Chargers decided to pass on Newton, Lynn said he was already confident in the quarterbacks he currently has on roster.

    "I feel really good about the quarterback room that I have," said Lynn. "With Tyrod Taylor, Easton Stick -- those are guys that a lot of people don't talk about, but he was a Division I AA -- he won like three national championships. He's a hell of a leader, hell of a professional and I think he has a bright future in this league one day."

    Taylor will turn 31 this offseason, so the Chargers drafted Herbert to be the future under center. The 6-foot-6, 236-pound quarterback has the prototypical height you want from an NFL quarterback and possessed one of the best arms in this draft class as well. In his senior season at Oregon, Herbert threw for 3,471 yards, a career-high 32 touchdowns and six interceptions.
