Binn added to AFC Pro Bowl squad

Long snapper David Binn is the latest Charger to be added to the 2007 Pro Bowl roster, making him the 11th on the AFC All-Star team. Each AFC and NFC All-Star squad is allowed one “need” player and Binn was selected to represent this year’s AFC team. The 13-year veteran and longest-tenured Charger will be playing in his first Pro Bowl.

In 2006, Binn broke the team record for most consecutive games played when he played in his 201st career game in Week 10 at Denver.

Binn will join LaDainian Tomlinson, Lorenzo Neal, Antonio Gates, Nick Hardwick, Marcus McNeill, Jamal Williams, Shawne Merriman, Kassim Osgood and Nate Kaeding. Quarterback Philip Rivers will not play due to a foot injury.

Marty Schottenheimer, Philip Rivers quotes on Cam Cameron

Chargers Head Coach Marty Schottenheimer:

“I think Cam is a terrific choice for Mr. Huizenga and the Miami Dolphins. He’s done a great job in every regard, and we’re very, very happy for him. I think he’s an outstanding football coach. He’s a great teacher and a great person. I think his biggest strength is his ability to communicate the message to his players. He’s got a lot of energy and he’s passionate about what he does. You don’t have to spend much time around him to realize that.”

“Right now we’re going to look at all of our options. We’d like to keep the system in place. It is sound and has proven to be successful. We don’t want our players to have to learn a new system. I’m going to sit back and not rush into anything. I’m going to look in house first. We have our work cut out to replace Cam.”

Chargers Quarterback Philip Rivers

“Cam has had a tremendous impact on me as a young quarterback. He brings a lot of knowledge with both the game planning and the system that he runs. He had a lot to do with my success this year. He’s a great motivator. He has a great understanding of the game in all phases. He really has the demeanor about him that exudes a lot of confidence. I think his players feed off of that.”
