Rivers is a commodity...the Chargers can get a good deal for him (and this is something that even the national commentators are saying about the situation) 
This diehard, loyal Chargers fan has been rooting them on since the beginning of the season, so I've got a great seat on the bandwagon, and I'm NEVER giving it up!

it will be tough to trade a $44 million contract attached to dubious mechanics and zero live-game NFL experience.
Brees is gone at the end of the year, barring some sort of one-year, "prove it ain't a fluke" deal - they simply can't cap 2 QB contracts for an extended period of time. It would be smarter to let him go, most likely, than to overpay for one good year following seasons of mediocrity.
