And of course receiver Vincent Jackson. I know Sproles was franchise tagged but still. What are the chances of a talent like Sproles or walking thru the door again? What about a terrific receiver like Vincent Jackson? How about keeping some of that talent home rather than watching it walk out the door thru free agency. The only one that should be walking out the door for the final time NEVER to return again is YOU.

And, AJ….talk like you have some smarts.

I never thought I’d recommend this to anyone…but maybe he should call Tiki. He had the same problem, and got it corrected.
=====
Norv should call Coughlin since Tom was the one who corrected Tiki’s fumbling problem.

You have the idiot GM trying to thrust himself into the news and into on field activity instead of minding his own business and letting the Coach do his job.

Mathews is under contract – he should be managed by Norv Turner not a wanna-be Coach who’s the GM

He and Norv will be gone the Monday after the season ends. We deserve better.

Ryan runs hard but he’s either injured or fumbling the ball.

why don’t you stick to your own team because you obviously don’t have a clue what you are talking about.

Peyton was the 1st pick in that draft. Chargers needed a QB so they had to go with Leaf…the 2ND pick.

Brees was coming off a shoulder/arm injury and thus he was let go as a free agent.

Marty ball was a perrennial loser come play off time.

wow..that last line….what a burn…Matt Millen is laughing at AJ huh….The guy who drafted 3 1st round WR busts in a row is gonna laugh at the guy who still has a job..

Right.

The Colts had the #1 pick and chose Peyton over Ryan Leaf.

FYI

They get fired and eventually ran out of the league. Smith has been arguably the GM that has FUMBLED on more coaching and player moves than any other GM in recent memory

Get your facts straight.

He constantly picks fights with people. He must be one of the most disliked GMs in the league. It is amazing he has held his job this long.

Made of glass and can’t hold onto the ball. A recipe for a bust.

Instead he passes on Brees and couldn’t draft Eli because the great football minds made the Mannings mad when they drafted Ryan Leaf before Peyton. Wait a minute though we have a coach that goes 14 and 2 …..What to do? What to do? Keep making these bone headed decisions Smith as the rest of the AFC likes not having to worry about your team come playoffs. Heck even Matt Millens laughing.

Smith needs to stop fumbling himself. Quite the fumble when you fired Schottenheimer after 14-2 season huh A.J.? Where have you been since?
A.J. Smith is a bum and should be fumlbed out of S.D.
Bye bye Bree’s ( lost SB opportunity) Bye Bye Eli (Lost 2 SB opportunities).
