4. What needs to happen for this team to win big? "Fitzpatrick needs to play at least like an average quarterback on a weekly basis." I couldn't disagree with this comment more. To think this team is automatically good enough to win with an average QB on a weekly basis is ridiculous.

Isn't the backup the second stringer?

Very good post.

It may be this.

I don't get this point of view. At all.

Huh? I read it three times and still don't get it.

Perfectly said.

I'm not sure I agree. I saw C.J. showing he can run the show, pun intended. The most important player is Fitz and it isn't close. The season will hing on how he plays. RB as a position is so far down the list expecially when you factor in the difference between our backs, I don't think it's in the top ten.

Here, here.

Great point and exactly how I feel.

Well for football reasons I am too, but it would be pretty cool to get an inside glimpse at the team we love.

You think Fitz has the talent to contend with the leagues elite QB's to win the superbowl?

"Let me just say this to start with: He won't be a distraction here and neither will anybody else. It may start out but it won't last. I promise you. That's not a problem,"

And I don't think you will.

I don't know that "they should have emerged last year". It would have been nice to have some more answers but it wasn't all because of bad play. Injuries left a ton of questions unanswered, so the questions are still there. One thing that isn't a question is that there's enough talent to feel optimistic enough that someone is going to manifest. All I'm saying is the talent is there, these guys are not bums.

If he ever starts an NFL game that would be incredible and he just might due to an injury or something like that. But to assume he'll be a 10 year NFL QB where he's the unquestioned starting QB and he goes to pro bowls, wins divisions/conferences/and a super bowl is lunacy.

Is he the difference between winning the division or not?

I agree. I think there's enough talent for someone to emerge. I also don't think it's prudent to bring in a Vet and still have unanswered questions about our young guys. Now in a year or two if we are contending for the Division or the AFC then you think more about it.

You're right, but the guy that fired Marty for him is. Being a good team is how you get it done now? I'm not debating they've done more than us, but they haven't gotten anything done. They should have, but haven't. I'd argue they are messing up a great thing.

You're right.

I used to go to Buffalo Rumblings daily, but Brian Galliford seems too snarky to me. He's a talented writter but you can't ever argue with his opinion. He confuses conjecture and facts.

What have the chargers "gotten done"?

Peter King is obviosly a fan of Buddy Nix. I thought Florence's play dropped dramatically last year.

Thank you Marv for finding Fred.

I hate to pile on, but I'd take Hasselbeck in a minute.
