aj smith

I could say that San Diego Chargers General Manager AJ Smith pushed all of his chips to the middle of the table by trading up to get RB Ryan Matthews with the 12th overall pick.

The timing of this announcement is very curious, but the San Diego Chargers have announced that Head Coach Norv Turner has received a three year contract extension.

I say that it is a curios time for an announcement because the Charger just suffered another embarrassing loss in the playoffs.

In fact it may be time for both Turner, and General Manager AJ Smith to admit to themselves that this is as far as they can take t his team, and it is time for the team to find a GM/head coach combination that can get this team over the hump to a Super Bowl Championship .
