San Diego Chargers

There's a full boat of NFL preseason games throughout the day Saturday. The games run the gamut for drama, with guys fighting for roster spots, starting quarterback positions, and for the right to clang footballs off a large scoreboard.

By JasonB Saturday 4:30p - Baltimore Ravens @ Tennessee Titans 8:30p - Arizona Cardinals @ Carolina Panthers Sunday 1p - Philadelphia Eagles @ New York Giants 4:30p - San Diego Chargers @ Pittsburgh Steelers Nice to get the full week of rest.

By NFL.com Staff “The speed of the game picks up considerably from the regular season to the playoffs.” — Washington Redskins offensive lineman Jon Jansen, a Special Player Correspondent. “He’s the quiet assassin.” — Sapp on Dolphins tight end Anthony Fasano.

By TheSportsGuru The Broncos didn't win the battle against the Chargers, but it is Denver that could be the reason the Chargers are one and done in the playoffs.  LaDainian Tomlinson has a torn tendon near his groin and is a game time decision.  Antonio Gates is also hobbled and if the Chargers are to have any ch...

By JasonB In the early game, the upstart Atlanta Falcons travel to Arizona to take on the Cardinals, champs of the worst division in football. In primetime, the Colts travel to San Diego to take on the 8-8 Chargers, champs of probably the second worst division in the league.

By Chris Ah yes. The NFL playoffs. My favorite sports time of the year, tied with the NCAA basketball tournament. The games begin today with the Indianapolis Colts taking on the San Diego Chargers at 7 PM central time. Peyton Manning, this year's NFL MVP, takes on the quarterback who won the passing tit...

By Josh Satler 44-6. No, that is not a typo. The Dallas implosion reached its climax yesterday as it failed to show up for a must win game vs. the Eagles that could've put them into the playoffs. And after such lofty expectations coming into this season, this has to go down as one of the biggest disappointments i...

By TheSportsGuru I'll start by sending a message of Congratulations to the San Diego Chargers and to DaBolts over at Bolts From The Blue.  I said three weeks ago that whom ever won the AFC West would be a deserving champion.  While we had hoped that would be the Broncos, in the end it just wasn't to be.  The Charger...

By Blitzburgh Congratulations as well to the Miami Dolphins for handling the New York Jets in the Meadowlands. The biggest difference in the game? 3 Brett Favre INTs compared to 0 for Chad Pennington. The +46 rushing yards edge also contributed to the Dolphins winning the time of possession battle 33+ mi...

By NFL.com Staff “This is the reason why a young rookie quarterback can play in this league because the running game is a rookie quarterback’s best friend. Michael Turner for MVP.” — Mariucci on his MVP pick of the season, Falcons RB Turner. MVP: RB Michael Turner, Falcons

By TheSportsGuru Perhaps this is how it should be.  Perhaps the football gods are giving the Chargers the chance they claim they never received after the Hochuli play.  Perhaps the injuries, 12 players on I/R and several games missed by D.J. Williams, Champ Bailey and 6 different running backs is just too much...

By mondesishouse(noreply@blogger.com) With the loss, the Chargers are now 0-13 in the regular season in Pittsburgh, although they're 2-0 in the playoffs, unless you've forgotten Alfred Pupunu and Stan Humpheries. Also, note the disparity in penalties called yesterday: Steelers 13, Chargers 2. Hmm....

By Juree Dolphins at Texans:  The hapless Dolphins are really stumbling and a trip to Texas isn't going to help.  Houston has played well, even in their losses; while they won't have A Johnson again, there is more than enough backup talent to win this one easily at home. 

Oh, and: they win games, even those they have no business winning, and that's what good teams do. Indy-Kansas City. Indy-Baltimore. Scoreboard. Woo!! Holly

Guys, please just bear with me for a second while I turn blue, and I'll be back to normal and accepting all shots at Peyton and Indy with my head down in a minte.
