The Los Angeles Chargers looked at Cam Newton but decided to move on in a move that would have changed the face of the AFC West.

There’s no way of knowing whether or not the AFC West would have ended up differently when all is said and done on the 2020 season, but looking at the Los Angeles Chargers, it’s not hard to imagine how much tougher they might be with an at-the-ready option at quarterback for a team that looks competitive at every other position.

It wasn’t so long ago that the Chargers, with Philip Rivers employed under center, were just a half step behind the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC West.
