    His mom and dad taught him to never confuse team with family. player career is short and can end in a single snap. pay must be maximized as the NFL will toss you in the trash the second they are done with you (witness the discussion here this off-season, he’s not wrong). I do not believe he’d take a significant pay cut to stay, he’ll say “pay my salary or cut me”. Just guessing though.

    Nothing he has ever said or done that I’ve heard strikes me as “bleed Charger blue”.

      I blame the NFLPA - they continue to allow the owners to create these contracts that truly give the owner leverage

      All four of the players - MW, Allen, Bosa and Mack - are essentially free agents that the Chargers have right of first refusal on. None of their money is guaranteed at this point. In the NBA and MLB, that would be different

      As for Bosa - his right to maximize value and money. I do not blame him for taking the contract and maximizing his revenue

      But based on the rules of the CBA in the NFL - the Chargers can move on from that contract and are doing something other teams do as well.

        Gotta build depth and have cap space for late UFA signings.

        Hortiz will bring Ravens methods.
        We play modern Harball.

          Find a cheaper vet if you want leadership.

          A lot of hand wringing about the coming cap hell .... goes out with a whimper.
          Some very easy decisions .... maybe one difficult one.
          I saw nothing that would warrant bringing Kendrick back. He is just ordinary against the run, is now a liability against the pass, is aging and has a very easy contract to get out of. He would be the very first person we should cut to start addressing our cap issues.

            Just listened to this. Matt Money Smith and Chris Hayre. Money likes the Hortiz hire of course. But he mentioned three areas the Ravens excel in drafting: RB, TE and CB. One area they do not: WR

            Money thinks Allen will probably be back.

              In fact, I think on like February 12 - the day after the Super Bowl - you can start releasing players. This decision should be early in the offseason.

                      Just spitballing here but the Ravens have 4 CBs headed for UFA
                      all should be affordable to very affordable

                      Daryl Worley
                      Aurthur Malet

                      Maybe we target 1 of these after we get under the cap?

                      Any strong opinions for 1 over the other?

                        I was asking the same thing. Where can I watch it?
