Chargers 31, Eagles 23
After the ridiculous win by Washington over the Donkeys (way to go Redskins!!), the Chargers knew that a win would tie them for the lead in the AFC West (I don’t need you Donkey fans coming out of the woodwork with your ‘but we have the tiebreaker’ cries…it won’t matter at the end of [...]

…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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

“Character and resiliency”…

…is what Norv Turner answered when asked what he believes the team’s strengths are right now in his press conference following the upset win by Miami last week.  Character, yes, I have repeatedly argued that.  But the resiliency doesn’t seem to be there as it was last season when the Bolts started out 1-3, made [...]

Well isn’t this a cheery little factoid:  the Dolphins have beaten the Chargers the past 6 meetings, and lead the series 11-10.  Also, Chad Pennington is 3-0 vs. San Diego (of course, that was with the Jets) and has yet to throw an INT vs. the Bolts (hey Cromartie, Hart, Jammer, Weddle….you listening?!?!)
During their last meeting, 11 [...]

Chargers 48, Jets 29
Who else enjoyed watching Brett Favre get sacked 3 times and intercepted thrice??!!  Particularly after listening to the horrid announcers that are MNF rave about Favre this and Favre that….ack, puke!!  At least, unlike Dan Dierdorf and Troy Aikman (who, in my opinion have no business calling any more games since neither of them [...]

Chargers 20, 49ers 17.
Sorry for the delay folks.  Living in AZ now, I had to wait until Saturday NIGHT to actually watch the game, being forced, instead, to suffer through the Cardinals/Broncos game and the unending drama of Matt Leinart, aka Ryan Leaf, Jr.  Since Kurt Warner was named Arizona’s starter, I’m sure there will [...]
