The next thing we hear out of Oakland will either be "Aaron Rogers is coming..."  or "Adams wants out...."

I'd bet on the first before the 2nd

The second would make sense.  Leave where you're comfortable to chase more $$$ and then ask out because you miss the old QB.

I seem to recall  this very subject being asked and Adams rejecting the notion in no short order. I think his desire was more about being a Raider and Carr was the icing  than the other way around, Rogers going in to a black hole or whatever he's doing I believe is a clue to what's coming  next.

 I think it's much like Sean Peyton wearing an Orange Tie  on the pregame show the weekend before his Denver HC job was announced

Carr wasn't that bad and Rogers can't fix the Raider defense so I'm not conceding the AFCW to the Raiders yet.

Twould be poetic justice if we could pick Adams up cheap for a season... get even with them for poaching Gannon

Chiefs don't need that contract and Mahomes doesn't need that receiver.  Now if Hopkins wanted a shot at a ring and would play on a one year contract................

I didn't say we should do it.   That dude's gonna break someone's bank. I said it would be poetic justice.

Hey man. Don't discount the power of dreaming.

I dreamt that one day we would land a dominating franchise quarterback.

Keenan Allen could potentially be a cap casualty. Maybe he would sign on and finally be exposed to a Super Bowl.

He has wreaked havoc soo many times I'd love to have him on our side. And then there is this

The Chargers need to free up over $20 million in cap space this offseason and Allen has become a prime potential candidate to be cut or traded. While there are several reasons against cutting Allen, sometimes in the NFL teams have to make a tough business decision.

If Allen were to be cut by the Chargers then there is no guarantee that he wouldn't sign with the Chiefs. Kansas City does not have the cap space to bring in an expensive WR1 but if he is willing to take a pay cut, and essentially replace Juju Smith-Schuster's cap hit, then it could be a possibility.

If you are Keenan Allen of course you are going to be intrigued by the Chiefs. They have been the most successful team of the last five years and Mahomes is one of very few quarterbacks that would actually be an upgrade from Justin Herbert.

Pete Prisco is already picking Chargers to win the division. Russell Wilson will be comeback man of the year. Some dude in Las Vegas will get hyped because he likes Mark Davis haircut. Chiefs will obviously be hung over.
