Where oh where will Shanahan go? WHO CARES?!!?

Breaking news…..despite all the awe surrounding the firing of Mike Shanahan (which, frankly, surprises me because why are you all so shocked he was canned after blowing a 3-game lead as well as not making the playoffs for, oh, 4 of the past 5 years?!?)  I’m not surprised at all.  So he’s the 2nd longest-tenured [...]

Chargers 52, Donkeys 21 (THAT’S FIFTY-TWO POINTS!!)
So, just ignore my blogs for the past month when I wrote off my beloved Chargers.  What a game!  Way to choke, Denver!  1st place ALL season and a 3-game skid to blow it.  Merry Christmas!!!
This makes the Chargers the ONLY 4-8 team to ever make the playoffs, as [...]

Congratulations to Drew Brees for being the only the 2nd QB to pass for 5,000+ yds!!  Unfortunately, he was a mere 15 yards short of breaking Dan Marino’s record of 5,084 yards.  Personally, I think that the Panthers should have let him complete a pass to break the record, but Brees’ last pass of the [...]

For all of you Philip Rivers haters, did you know that Rivers is the ONLY QB in the entire league with a rating over 100?  104.0, in fact, followed by Chad Pennington at 96.4 and Drew Brees and Kurt Warner at 95.5.  FYI, Jay Cutler is tied for 12th with 87.0.  And as for TDs, Rivers leads the league [...]

WTG Buffalo, holy cow!!!  There’s NO way Denver will beat the Chargers at home with no running game.
BTW, no team has ever lost a 3-game lead in the division to lose the division.  I hope Denver will be the first!!
I got my xmas present!!!

Chargers 41, Buccaneers 24
Awesome game, with a Philip Rivers ”I don’t need no stinking Pro Bowl, I know I’m good” statement.  Well done! A career high 4 TDs for Rivers…kudos!  I knew if I sat him in my fantasy “super bowl” he would have a great game.  Such is the sacrifice I made for the benefit of the [...]

Studly WR Vincent Jackson is on the verge of accomplishing something that no Chargers receiver has done since Curtis Conway in 2001 - a 1,000-yd receiving season.  Currently, Jackson has 940 yds, and only on 50 receptions.  He has managed an impressive 7 catches of 40+ yards this season, tied with Green Bay’s Greg Jennings [...]

In the 8 times these teams have met, the Chargers have won 7.  But that really means nothing.  Just thought you’d like to know.
This season, San Diego has had 9 of 14 games decided in the past 2 minutes, (with 6 of them on the last play) coming out on the short end more times than I [...]

Pro Bowl Rosters Released - Only 2 Chargers

December 16, 2008 | Leave a Comment

The rosters for the Pro Bowl have been released, with Kris Dielman the only Chargers starter and Antonio Gates as a reserve being elected.  I have to express my discontent with some of the other selections.  Philip Rivers is the top rated QB in the LEAGUE and having scored the most TDs by QB; however, Jay [...]
