    I just have never been a fan of Chambers. For whatever reason. That probably contributed to my marginalization of his abilities and stats. (Get it? I poked fun at myself by using the same root word that I did in my first message, although in a different context. I kill me sometimes. )
    Look at who was tossing passes to Chambers. Put Chambers with Favre or Arod, we are talking DD like #s.


    He had Philip Rivers throwing him the ball for three years. That's gotta count for something.
    I was strictly talking about his #s at Miami.

    Not really. He was traded and played 10 his first season with Rivers. Put up 35 catches.

    Next year he was hurt. Started 9 games. 33 catches.

    This year 5 games.

    At best you could say he played 2 seasons.

    Chambers may have indeed lost his wheels. But, there are also some personal issues that played into the Chargers decision to cut him. Do a quick google on him and Stacey Saunders.

      I was with you every step of the thread, but DD still has his speed, agility and ability at this stage of his career. The toll of time is showing DD to be the far superior NFL talent.

      DD is 34 and likely on his way to another 1k season, chambers is 31 and on his way out. At his best he may have equaled DD's numbers with a good QB, but again, the weight of time is bearing out DD as the far superior NFL player.

        Again, I was STRICTLY talking about Miami years.

        But, let's wait and see. Chambers had some off the field issues. You never know if he can come back and get healthy.
