      I have been thinking the same way. It’s the biggest name in the NFL opening the new marquee stadium and west coast NFL HQ. TB12’s new production company is another piece of evidence that points in this direction.
      This would be the year for the Bolts to do HARD KNOCKS.

      A tidbit from EW......



      Los Angeles Chargers' offer

      Total years and value: two for $64 million
      Average per year: $32 million
      Full guarantee at signing: $64 million
      Total guarantee: $64 million
      Two-year payout: $64 million

      Kirk Cousins set the precedent for fully guaranteed contracts at the quarterback position two years ago, and in order to lure Brady out of New England, the Chargers are going to have to sweeten the pot.

      The Chargers have approximately $47 million in cap space. That does not include the roughly $5 million in additional cap space they will pick up once the trade of left tackle Russell Okung to the Panthers for guard Trai Turner becomes official on March 18, the first day of the league year. The team also has the ability to shed about $11 million in cash with the potential retirement of veteran defensive tackle Brandon Mebane and by moving on from oft-injured linebacker Denzel Perryman, so the Chargers have the financial ability to bring Brady into the fold.

      By signing Brady, however, the Chargers likely would have to address the offensive line with the No. 6 overall pick instead of drafting a signal-caller such as Oregon's Justin Herbert or Utah State's Jordan Love as the franchise quarterback of the future.

      The Chargers have already re-signed breakout running back Austin Ekeler, but to appease Brady, they would also need to splash the cash to bring back tight end Hunter Henry, who is a free agent. In addition, they could re-sign running back Melvin Gordon to complement Ekeler. The Chargers also have a high-dollar contract extension looming for talented defensive end Joey Bosa, who's in the final year of his rookie deal. It would take some finagling to make the money work to keep everyone.



      How could the Chargers appeal to the California native? They can offer the opportunity for a fresh start in Los Angeles, where his family has a home, and dynamic playmakers like Keenan Allen, Mike Williams and Ekeler at his disposal. He would also be a draw for fans in the newly built SoFi Stadium and help raise the team's fledgling footprint in L.A. And if Brady can still play, the Chargers would once again be a Super Bowl contender. -- Eric D. Williams
      Off the top of my head, the working capital available after paying Brady could be used to draft OT round 1 (Wirfs), TE round 2 (Kmet), and sign a medium priced vet Olineman (Beachum).

      The voices in the head are saying that TB12 & Gisele want to come to LA.

      SoFi is a perfect launching point for 199 Productions eventually.

      It is easy to visualize LAC doing this, because of our circumstances,
      and in spite of the fact that us fans don't like it AT ALL.

      Winning with flair cures everything.
      We do not play modern football.

        The Brady rumors are big here in Vegas. We'll see. I don't think Carr is going anywhere but Gruden is a QB signing fool. Will Mayock let him do it is the question.

          Don't friggin sign Brady, just don't do it! It's a punk move and not worth it. Build a team the right way, time to do it right. If Tua isn't there, go BPA. Maybe Hurts will fall to us later. You can do worse than Tyrod, just sayin.

                Signing Linval would almost be like the Mebane signing: a pro bowler on the start of his downward trajectory.

                  No fucking way that Brady moves Giselle and the fam out here to sin city. That's one of the dumber rumors I've heard.

                    Interesting....Rhodes had quite the fall from glory last year. I wonder if it was him trying to play through a nagging injury or if he is just running out of gas?

                      But, Giselle is reportedly a witch (Brady's own words--see below). She'll fit right in...maybe she can start up a show at one of the casinos...

                        Umm....Actually, those are her words being quoted by TB. It literally says, "she said" in the quote you underlined. :facepalm1:

                        And her being a good guesser has about zero relevance to them moving their clan to an extremely un-family friendly city.

                          TB12 to IND ? Gisele will just love the bright lights.
                          TB12 to TEN ? They already cannot decide between Derrick Henry and Ryan Tannehill.
                          TB12 to TB ? Sea turtle watching would get old within one week.

                          Admit it.
                          You cannot look away from the horror show.

                          The perfect fit is...
                          TB12 to LAC @ SoFi.
