    They should trade him right now, before the end of the trading deadline. He's going to leave at the end of the season anyway and with this OL, running is nearly impossible.
    THE YEAR OF THE FLIP!

      Who's going to want Gordon? He hasn't been very impressive, suffers from fumbleitis, and has that injury history. Trading Gordon right now would be like selling the Titanic--right after it hit the iceberg...

        What's so crazy is that before the holdout Gordon had one of the very lowest Fumble rates in the league per carry. It's crazy how much this guy f'd up his perceived value.

        Demanded way more than he was worth, wouldn't accept what he was offered (which was still more than what he was worth). Sat out for multiple games and realized the Chargers were fine without him. Then comes back, asked for more touches and continued to screw up and is now a fumble machine like he was his rookie season. Almost like he brought the bad karma on himself and the team is suffering from it because they tolerated and even proceeded to reward it in a sense.

          Lynn’s mistake was putting him right back in as the starter. He didn’t deserve that and wasn’t ready for it. If JJ hadn’t been injured I wonder if he would have done it.

            didnt lynn say it was gordon's job whenever he came back? that's just crazy that someone who let the team down is awarded the starting job right off the bat. I'd figure work him back in the rotation and IF he does well then let him start after a few games. he's been a disaster and so has this team. he's been hit too many times and aint thinking straight...that's gordon AND lynn.

              Good point, Jube...first, Loyal Lynn should have made no guarantees. Second, he should have had him practice until he was in true game shape. Third, as soon as it was evident Gordon wasn't in game shape, he should have been benched until he WAS in game shape. Fourth, Lynn should have NEVER repeatedly sent MG3 up the gut on that predictable goal line play, especially after Gordon failed the first time. Stubborn, silly mentality. Terrible coaching. If it was Belicheat, Gordon would be riding pine for weeks...

                if he faked the dive into the line on the 2nd failed run, i guarantee HH would have been wide open if he paused 1 sec and fake chipped then sprinted diagonally towards the EZ sideline. hey had only one DB over on that entire side pre-snap. if not wide open (*which he would be ), throw it away and he's still got 2 more tries.

                fuck - i throw again on 3rd and if he misses yet again, kick a FG and tie the fucker. instead of sitting there with his dick in his hands watching the damn clock tick off ... which might have happened if it wasn't ruled a fumble

                  God gave Gordon a nice life lesson there at our expense ...

                    Point spread is down to 4, which is kind of interesting.

                        Lynn must have looked at some tape.
