The Buffalo Curse, a Mega-Mailbag, QB Roulette, and Week 3 Picks

PelisseroI would say this though, in terms of what they do, I don't think that there's any magic bullet out there for the Chargers. Because even if you start going, it's like it's Jim Harbaugh on the hot seat. They owe him a ton of money for another three years. He signed through 2028 at a pretty high number.

PelisseroThe Chargers are not a team that has a history, A, of paying coaches that much money. Certainly B, of firing coaches when they own that much money. They're paying for anything. What do they pay for? Well, they're paying rent to Stan Kroenke. It's so funny.

PelisseroThat's just, that's not their history. So, all right, Herbert. Well, you can say, yeah, people are going to call him. If they, you know, again, if it goes to 0 -5, 1 -5, whatever, like they're going to get calls about Herbert.

PelisseroI don't see the organization punting on a, what is he, 28 -year -old quarterback in favor of a 65 -year -old head coach.

PelisseroAnd on top of that, Herbert's got a no trade clause. You really think he's eager to say, yeah, I'll get traded to Cleveland or Atlanta and his fiancés in L.A.? Like, why would he go with that? That's what I mean with, like, there's no magic bully. Like, I don't, there's not like a single move or a trigger of events.

PelisseroIt's always felt like this was kind of the two -year plan here, bring in Mike, pair him with Justin, have Jim running the thing.

PelisseroThey could turn it around. They could upset the Bills or having a totally different conversation next week. But if it continues to unravel, it's going to be a really long season in a building where, like everywhere Jim is, his whole philosophy is more is more. It's more work, more hours, more time.
