On page 30, there is a great article about the Chargers “road to redemption” and the fabulous game vs. Indianapolis last weekend.  The article focuses upon Philip Rivers and how his on-field persona is nothing like his true self - a quiet, devout Catholic, country boy who met his wife, Tiffany, in the 8th grade.  [...]

Next weekend the Chargers will return to the city in which they recorded the biggest win in franchise history. Their 1994 AFC Championship Game upset of the Steelers allowed the Bolts to advance to the club’s only Super Bowl appearance. - chargers.com
The Chargers are happy with the extra day of rest this week.  On Friday, the team [...]

Chargers 23, Colts 17 (OT)
How bout them Chargers!?!!!  What a fabulous game culminating with an amazing ending!!  The Chargers, once again, defeated the Colts in the playoffs, advancing to the divisional playoffs at Pittsburgh next Sunday afternoon.
I was there….the electricity was phenomenal and the crowd was the loudest I have heard in my 15 years of [...]

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 [...]

Steelers 11, Chargers 10 (Whoop de doo, the first time in NFL history that a game ended with this score.)
What a stupid play to end the game.  Sheesh, take a knee or something. 
I’m really tired of writing these post game reports after watching the team just suck.  At least the defense showed up today.  But the [...]

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 [...]

Chargers 28, Raiders 18
I have to admit, I was pretty worried at halftime with the Bolts trailing 15-0.  HOWEVER, once again, the 2nd half is, in fact, the Chargers’ half.
First of all, let me be the first to say, “See ya Kiffin” cuz you know that Al Davis is firing his arse tomorrow!
Now on to [...]

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 [...]

(2-0) Donkeys 38, (0-2) Chargers 37
WTG Darren Sproles, amassing 317 all-purpose yds on 14 touches, including a franchise-tying record 103 yd kickoff return for a TD and the go-ahead (and what should have been game winning) 66 yd catch-and-run TD in the 4th quarter. Philip Rivers (21/33, 377 yds, 3TDs and the bogus non-INT) and Chris Chambers [...]

Preseason Week 2 - Chargers 6, Rams 7 (yawn)

August 17, 2008 | 1 Comment

While this game wasn’t a nailbiter (although, seriously, what preseason games really are?), the Chargers showed some real defensive prowess.
Marc Bulger was intercepted on his first two drives - by CBs Cletus Gordon and Antoine Cason.  Additionally DT Lamar Divens and LB Jyles Tucker each forced a fumble.  LB Tim Dobbins and Tucker were each [...]
