I figured with all the handwringing over the Seahawks' trade for the Chargers' Charlie Whitehurst, I would repost an article I wrote a year ago about Whitehurst. At the time, I felt that the Minnesota Vikings should trade a third-round pick or higher to acquire Whitehurst. I must admit, however, even I was giddy over the haul the Chargers picked up from the Seahawks! When I look at the Minnesota Vikings ...

After the Chargers totally blew that game against the Baltimore Ravens this season, I wrote the following: Every year, I write articles about how big a moron Norv Turner is, and then have to retract my statements at the end of the year. Not this time. Now I find myself defending Norv to folks who really don't know what they hell they're talking about. You constantly hear about how the Chargers handed Norv ...

As I watched the Chargers receive a second straight prime-time smack down, there was one bright spot. I was at a buddy's house, who somehow was receiving the game commercial free. I guess that's how those Iranian cats do it. Instead of commercials, we were treated to Mike Tirico, John Gruden, and Ron Jaworski's banter during commercial breaks, and I've got to tell you, it was the most interesting game I've ever ...

I love history. I was sitting back and thinking about some of the stupidest things I've read about about three of my all-time favorite Chargers: Philip Rivers, Drew Brees, and LaDainian Tomlinson. Philip Rivers Phil Simms, in the process of touting his son Chris Simms, explained that the Miami Dolphins would be foolish to trade for a loser like Rivers. Simms isn't particularly impressed by Rivers' ability, either ù even if the ...

On Sunday, the San Diego Chargers Philip Rivers' 40 yard bombs turned the Miami Dolphins' "Wildcat Offense" into the "Fraidey Cat." After Dolphin's quarterback Chad Pennington jammed his throwing shoulder in the second half, the Chargers were all but assured a win. Forced to pass in the fourth quarter, the Dolphins were exposed as a team that is no threat to pass - especially when Chad Pennington is not in ...

Thus far his team has featured (LaDainian) Tomlinson running wild and (Drew) Brees helping lead an offense that has a 91.3 percentage rate of scoring in the Red Zone -- no wonder Schottenheimer calls that the Gold Zone. -Thomas George, New York Times, Nov. 3, 2002 Boy. One thing is obvious, and I've been saying this for three years now, San Diego Chargers Norv Turner needs to give up the offensive play ...

Raiders fans will readily concur with the fact that I have officially become an idiot. I am posting my picks for today's games and will undoubtedly be so blatantly wrong on some of these picks, it will prompt calls for my trips to work to be taken on the yellow bus for my own safety. I figured it was only fair after I called out a couple of writers for being stupid ...

Baltimore Ravens fans, writers, players, and cronies all believe that the Ravens "should" go into to San Diego and beat the Chargers. Are you serious? I know that the Chargers struggled to beat Oakland (whose defense is much better than you think), but seriously, why does no one look at history? Teams that fly from the Northeastern part of the United States have very little success in San Diego in recent years.   2008 Chargers 30, ...

You're the typical myopic douche Charger fan. It was a good game, the Raiders clearly dominated most of the game and gave it away on stupid plays. Chargers played a smarter fourth quarter...but to say they dominated or to say it was the same as last year is just about as dumb as saying LT is still the best back in the league. -Barnavicious X Wow. Have you ever heard ...

The web is all a buzz with talk about the near win against the San Diego Chargers, but history shows us that the Raiders have nearly beaten the Chargers in three of the last four playoff seasons - and AFC West Championship seasons - the Chargers' have had. It appears that the Raiders are turning the corner. On the other hand, we've seen this before. Begin Slideshow
