"I'm really excited for the LA Chargers," Adam said on the "Up And Adams" show. "Are they flying under the radar a little bit because of how rough that playoff loss was... I believe in Justin Herbert. I've always been a believer... I'm curious, what is the question? Is it a lazy nerve? We're talking about former players and an analyst, people who've played with him, even for a stretch of time.

"What is the indictment on Justin and it clutches, just does come up. I hate it. I don't want it to be a thing... These narratives are a thing until they aren't. He's got the most complete team around him that he's ever had, and he's got to put up big wins, and he's got to shut people up," she added.
