LOL. he's not interested in moving to LA, but would be okay with a trade? He moves either way. In the end, I bet he stays a Charger or just flat out retires. But if he were to get traded, he would never be a Chief. For starters, there is NO WAY that San Diego trades him in the division, and 2, if they were to trade him in the division, you know that Elway would pull another Manning and swoop him out of from under us.

The only reason we are in contention for the post season next year is because our division is ****ing falling apart. ...

Pretty sure the Chargers would have to eat a pretty big cap hit if they traded him. Not sure why they'd put themselves in that hole, especially when they're going to need star power in LA.

It doesn't really matter if he's 'interested' in moving to LA. I don't believe he really has a choice, unless he wants to retire.

And if he's not interested in playing in LA, why would he be interested in playing in SF? Dumb story.

Because he'll just retire and they won't get shit.

Everybody wins. Alex is pissed at us, Rivers is pissed at them. He tells them our secrets, Rivers tells us theirs.

Done deal.

Let's do it!!!! Let's do it!!!!!

If he retires, they get millions in cap relief. If they trade him, they're apparently going to take an $18M cap hit that's pure dead money. Why on earth would they do that?

Then again, this is the Chargers so why should I expect any of this to make sense. If he gives them an ultimatum they should just call his bluff, let him retire. Then they can draft a QB and have some cap space to build around the new QB.

Elway just sitting there rubbing his grubby mitts together I'm sure....

Jerok 01-16-2017 10:24 PM

All I know is i want rivers or Romo next year.

What's his ultimatum, though? Don't move the team? I think that's done at this point.

Trade me or I'll retire.

Call his bluff. I doubt he would just walk away from millions of dollars.

Rain Man 01-16-2017 10:57 PM

How long would it take a veteran QB to get up to speed? Whether it's Rivers or Romo, would they be better than Alex in their first year? First two years? How would they or our offense have to change, and is it feasible at their ages?

Probably the same posts in the Mange right now.
