San Diego 23, Miami 13
 
 

I have to admit I was worried during the first half.  No offensive line, no defensive line, Ronnie Brown running all over the defense….but then Norv adjusted and the Chargers pulled off a big win to stay only one game behind the Donkeys (who have yet to beat a REAL team so [...]

Uh oh, I’m having a flashback…

…to Week 1 last season when Carolina did the same exact thing…except that time it counted.  Not to say that the Chargers didn’t, overall, look pretty darn good.  The starting offense was spectacular.  Philip Rivers looked just as great as he did last season when he led the league in passer rating.  Vincent Jackson had [...]

Chargers 14, Seahawks 20
First of all, I have to say I was annoyed with the Seattle announcers whom I had to listen to the entire game…come on, guys, read a team roster and get your players right!!
Secondly, the game was quite a yawner.  LaDainian Tomlinson did play for about half of the first quarter and was [...]

With respect to LaDainian Tomlinson, anyway, that there hasn’t been any publicized progress, or lack thereof, in the whole contract negotiation thing seems to bode well for LT staying in San Diego; however, neither LT or AJ Smith are saying much.
Free Agency:
The Chargers were relatively quiet over the first day of free agency, but they [...]

According to Casey Pearce at chargers.com,
The status of running back and return specialist Darren Sproles is also on the front burner. Sproles is slated to become an unrestricted free agent in two weeks. The Chargers can apply the franchise tag to Sproles if they wish. Doing so would guarantee Sproles a one-year contract worth $6,621,000 in 2009.

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 [...]

LUCKY Win - Week 10 Post Game Report

But a win nonetheless!  WOOT!!
Chargers 20, Chiefs 19
That game was considerably closer than I would have liked, but a win is a win is a win (just ask Donkey fans.) 
And this win came despite yet another horrendous non-penalty pass interference penalty by the increasingly inept corps of officials which enabled the Chiefs to score.  I don’t [...]

San Diego (3-3) at Buffalo (4-1)
San Diego looks to get its first winning record of the season when it travels to Buffalo Sunday.  Trent Edwards is expected to play after suffering a concussion vs. the Cardinals 2 weeks ago.  Lucky for him, the Bills had a bye last week, and Buffalo is undefeated following a bye [...]

Chargers 30, Patriots 10
Now that’s what I’m talking about!!  What a fantastic game!  Starting with the 48-yd beautiful catch by Vincent Jackson, the Chargers had the momentum throughout, snapping New England’s 12-game road win streak. 
Philip Rivers was on fire tonight, 18-27, 306 yds and 3 TDs; as were Jackson, 5 receptions, 134 yds and a [...]
