If Shanny was still here and we needed a backup for RG3, Tyrod would work.



Not now.

He's not any good man, time to bury that possibility

Well, I guarantee you he won't remain in LA as the backup to Herbert. Someone will bring him in to compete for the starting role - Colts, 49ers, Broncos, Bears...

I don’t see it man. He’s a backup and has had his shot at starting with Buffalo and Cleveland now and just can’t get it done. Good dude and I’m sure great to have as a QB2 to teach the young guys.

You might be right. We'll see what happens. He was replaced by Mayfield after suffering a concussion, and replaced by Herbert after the lung piercing. With both clubs he was to be the starter. Maybe he's just destined to be a backup. But out of the rest of the FA QBs, I don't like anyone over him for the price - if that's how they end up addressing the position.

I think teams look at him as a bridge qb, a guy who can hold it down with solid play until your young stud gets enough practice to be the guy. Chargers were probably looking at him starting most of the year if not the entire year if he played good, and if he played bad he would have a short leash. The lung piercing just sped up their gameplan.

Very possible, but he was traded to Cleveland before Baker, and signed by San Diego before Herbert.

Either way, that's my point. He would be a good bridge QB if that's what they are looking for. But if Kyle Allen is healthy and they want a bridge QB, they probably just roll with him and Heinicke.
