With the release of Ladianin Tomlinson, Jamal Williams and Antonio Cromartie, some veterans comfort factor must have been shot way down. It looks like the Chargers front office is starting to care much more about production than Jersey sales. Good news to the fans, bad news to Shawne Merriman, anongst ...
One thing I was bummed out about last pre-season were the final cuts made at the wide receiver category. Charger fans were treated to several great performances by Charley Martin. He looked like a great addition to the Chargers receiver corps, and every game he put his heart and soul into his performance. After several games with multiple grabs, tough catches, and solid play, he was cut and disappeared off the Chargers ...
