God no. Locker room cancer.

Please elaborate. Not saying you're wrong, just asking what you know.

We need a power back . . . . . . . . .

I'd be more worried about him being in shape.
he's a gifted athlete, superbowl pedigree.
Fits a need for this season and should be very affordable.

I haven't heard locker room cancer

My concern is he is older and not in shape to be better than Spiller

My hope is that Spiller got a lot smarter from

1. Watching Ekeler's professional workout and preparation behaviorsz
2. Realizing he got the snot beat out of him for not being similarly prepared and lost an entire year

and he prepared the shit out of himself this off-season and comes in as a POWER back. he has the natural size and body structure to be powerful, i think.

PFF says the only thing holding the Chargers back now is the secondary. It doesn't point the finger directly at Derwin James, but it says the Chargers' secondary looks good on paper but fails to live up to its billing. The only praise they have is for Asante Samuel Jr.

That's timely lol

There has been an interesting Derwin debate, but no matter what side of the argument a Charger fan is on, lets be frank...

The entire Charger defense has not lived up to its billing the last 2 years, and that is not remotely arguable.

This doesn't sound like praise to me. Looks like they are saying, step it up. But it's PFF.

Additionally, seeing more growth from corner Asante Samuel, Jr. will be key for the team. He had two interceptions last season and 57 combined tackles. Samuel Jr. was given a 63.6 rating from PFF and will be looking to improve his overall game.

That PFF article literally called out Jackson and Samuel yet somehow there is an inference that it is a shot at James. Got it.

It singled Samuel out but it gets twisted to “while not directly pointing the finger at James .. wink wink”.
Lol. He was not mentioned. classic.
