The Lamar dilemma - pay or not to pay ? Pay em, were sunk, dont pay em were sunk.
fwiw- I dont think he'e the long term answer. I thought this after the LA Chargers playoff game 2 years ago and again last night.
If after having 3 years under his belt he hasn't corrected the flaws, what have we got ?
Granted and its a big granted, he lost his whole stinking starting backfield plus a Pro Bowl CB that has greatly weakened our secondary and our D's ability to get off the field. These tradeoffs make it difficult to discern Lamar's true progress this year.
My bet is he gets the sympathy vote, plays just well enough this year (competitive in many games, pulls a couple rabbits out of the hat and valiantly tries to win games on his own) and garners a long term deal.
