If and it's a very big if there is motivation to get this done I would expect his contract would have to be altered before the Chargers would trade him to lessen the cap hit on them. Still would be tough but i think the Packers did something similar with Rodgers contract before they traded him

I don't get this. Herbert can hand the ball off to a running back just as good as McCarthy. A good run game really makes playing qb easier. Something Herbert has never had.

Wow skor north not understanding the salary cap shocker! 108m reasons this will NEVER happen.

The irony is rich there are people here to this day pissed that Harbaugh isn’t the Vikings coach. But a franchise QB like Herbert isn’t a fit for him. I’m pretty sure Harbaugh can find a way to use Herbert’s skill set.

It's not always so dark......

Imagine you, as a top 10 arm talent, have a new HC and OC come in and try to sell you on being a game manager who will mostly be handing the ball off? Your stats will take a hit. Your talents, in a way, not utilized as much as they should be..... it's a tough sell for a top QB.... what if Herbert isnt feeling their run-dominant approach and doesn't want to play some quasi-QB role like Kaep with Harbaugh at 49ers or McCarthy with Harbaugh at Michigan.... what if Herbert isnt OK with games where he only has like 5 pass attempts per quarter? Especially in the modern NFL.....

It doesn't have to be dark.... sometimes two pieces just aren't compatible.... and it makes more sense for both parties to work out a trade.... mutually beneficial decision.....

Rodgers getting traded showed that anyone under any contract can be traded if both sides are motivated
