Suddenly I miss Nate Kaeding's ability to p iss in the clutch.

Rivers is getting hot and consistent at just the right time...... for my fantasy team! Touchdowns, yards and no PICKS! Thats the Rivers I know and love!

I know the 4 teams in the AFC west but I couldn't tell you there records against each other. I could however tell you that Jason Campbell being out of the line up for the Raiders was a blessing for them. I don't see any situation where Norv Turner returns as HC in San Diego. The Chargers should be drawing up Jeff Fischers contract right now.

Well really in the last 4 years who has been available. Every team who feels a HC change needs to be made always says Gruden or Cowher. Theres several complications there but they usually stop asking for those 2 when I tell them there's never been a SB winning coach that has gone to another team and won another SB. Also he was with the Steelers 16 years and got to the SB twice and only won 1. Gruden just recently signed a 5 year deal with ESPN for MNF duties. Jeff Fischer I think could really do some good out there, San Diego has a very strong foundation and I'm sure he doesn't want to go through a rebuilding process. I say if Norv goes JF is in.

Chargers overall look really good tonight. It's half time and we lead 17-7. If we can score on our opening drive in the 3rd quarter, it can only help us dictate the pace for the second half.

We got some much needed help today too with the Patriots blowing out the Donkey's and the miracle from the Lions to score the winning TD against the Faiders with 39 seconds left in the game. I'm glad for the opportunity we are getting here, but it would be nice to have had won the AFC West outright because this scoreboard watching is only going to give me ulcers.

That was a pretty ballsy leap by Ryan Mathews from 5 yards out. I didn't think he would get the distance on that. Chargers up 31-7.

I'm not even sure what to think about the Ravens. They sweep the Squeelers and have complete and utter control of the division and then get smoked by the Jags and then embarrassed ... EMBARRASSED tonight. I mean the Chargers couldn't have put together a better game plan if they had gon into the future, watched the game, come back and played it.

Agreed. This is by far one of the best games they have played not only this season, but in the last 3 seasons. I was just scratching my head in how a team that looked as bad as we did in the 6 game losing streak could put it together in all phases of the game tonight in such a way to as you put it... embarrassed them. All it really took for us to get out sh*t together was dropping in two new players in the OL. Suddenly Rivers has an Offensive Line that is giving him time to make his reads. 3-0 in the last 3 games with no picks. If we had only made these moves earlier, we might not be in the precarious situation of needing help from other teams to get to the Playoffs.

LT was on local radio station and he hinted at the prospect of his return to the Chargers. Not sure what the legitimacy is regarding this. Some have speculated that it would be a 1 day contract for him to retire as a Charger and others are saying he is a legitmate replacement for Mike Tolbert who seems to be on his way out the door.

I like Tolbert and want him to stay as a Charger. I also like the idea of bringing back LT to kind of fill in the role that Sproles did on 3rd downs. LT hopefully knows that he isn't a starter or an every down back anymore and he will have to agree to this before this becomes a reality. Sure, I'd like to see him return, but it's doubtful with his #1 nemesis AJ Smith still calling the shots.

The only way I can see AJ agreeing to bring him back is to give the fans something to chew on and get their minds off of the fact that he and Norv are still around. It would be a PR move more than anything.

LT wouldn't be a legitimate replacement for anyone unless it was a role exactly like he has had with the Jets. I think his time has come and like Emmit did with the Cowboys should take a 1 day $1 contract and retire  as a member of the team he will be most remember fore playing with. I always felt his time with the Jets has somewhat tarnished his career.

I guess I really don't know what to think of Chargers ownership and why they continue to cling to Smith and Turner. I guess its much like Jerry Jones thinking hes the best GM for the Cowboys.
