It's an indication the Bolts don't expect Malcom Floyd (neck) back any time soon. The longtime Titan couldn't make it past final cuts with the 49ers, but had a strong preseason. Hawkins should contribute mostly on special teams in San Diego. |

Not sure how this helps the passrush, but it may mean Floyd is out for longer than we all hoped. _________________

The hits keep coming. Can we just have our Top 10 pick now and get it over with? _________________

Floyd went down in Week 2, and suffered a knee scare in the preseason. In between was his 32nd birthday. Translation, Floyd is no guarantee to be back with the Bolts in 2014 even though he's due $5.75 million through 2015. He's out of guaranteed money after this season. A one-dimensional deep threat, Floyd has never caught more than 56 passes in a season, and has long had durability issues. |

That sucks regarding Floyd, but honestly, I've always fallen into the "Rivers can throw to anybody who isn't absolutely horrible" camp. The passing game shouldn't miss a beat, even with the loss of our most obvious downfield threat. |

Talented guy. Just seems to not have it there between the ears.
I remember on the Titans, he had all the potential but never put it together. _________________

If you're referring to fingers on his glove, the answer is yes. |

They hate the Chargers because they've proven them wrong. They basically thought this offense would be unplayable. Rivers could throw for 400 yards and 5 TDs on the Seahawks and they'd say he's still not that good. _________________
