If they recognize Phil at a game I may have to go to that. It’s funny I’ve been dead wrong on our QBs I wanted Brees over Rivers and hated the Herbert draft pick. Like Justin Philip quickly won me over and his spats with Cutler were good times.
Someone asked in another thread does Herbert make it easier to get over Rivers or something like that. My answer is yes. I love Rivers but IMO we may have actually improved at the QB position. That and I like that Justin stays pretty even emotionally whereas we all know Phil could get a little over hyped sometimes.

I think this is the right thing for both sides. For sure. However, there is a tinge of surprise because you just never know with the Chargers and how they go about things sometimes. They just seem to be a little off when it comes to PR (public relations) and the right way to do things. So, count me as happy and somewhat relieved. Especially the way this went down a year ago with it seeming like both sides were so ready to move on from each other asap.I'll ride the wave...where it takes me.

Absolutely they have. Even with Fouts, who is not the easiest guy to get along with. Appears he is mellowing with age, but for you younger guys, he was a piece of work. Great QB. Fierce competitor. Tough player. Not so nice off the field.

It would be cool for Philip to honor those fans (us) from San Diego. This city needs that. Hope the Spanni don't f*ck it up!

JH actually gives you the impression that nothing is too big to overcome. A real air of calm. He's the whole package, not just a passer.
