Really, at this point in the season I don't think McCardell would have done us much good. He's a pretty solid player, but is probably fairly rusty and definitely on the downside of his career. We're all but out of the race and we already have two older veteran receivers who are also on the decline. I believe two years ago was the time to get McCardell. He could have been a key component the past couple of years, but at this point, I think we have the slim chance of doing something this year or a better chance next year. I'm more disappointed about missing out on Bryant.

Cool, If the Chiefs aren't going to start winning these close games I hope The Chargers take the AFC West from The Donkeys.

Why such long faces?

We've got Larry Johnson!

They also sighned Shaw.

SAN DIEGO - Looking to fill a void at wide receiver, the San Diego Chargers on Tuesday signed veteran Bobby Shaw.

Terms were not disclosed.

Shaw, 29, started the season with the Buffalo Bills and played in four games before being released on October 12. He had five catches for 59 yards.

The signing of Shaw could fill a hole if wide receiver Reche Caldwell is sidelined for an extended period. Caldwell underwent an MRI Monday for a right knee injury that he suffered early in Sunday's 21-20 loss at Atlanta.

Shaw also has played for Pittsburgh and Jacksonville and has 197 catches for 2,784 yards and 14 touchdowns in 81 games.

The Chargers on Tuesday also placed rookie defensive end Dave Ball on injured reserve with a toe injury. Ball had three tackles in six games.

He's coming around again.
