I remember that game. Care to compare what rosters looked like then vs. now.Yeah, you caught us with a new head coach still hung over from last years playoff loss earlier this year in Foxboro. But before that, the last time we were in Boston, we took names later: San Diego 41 New England 17
More of that to come this weekend; sorry to spoil your perfection party.
LIGHTS ####### OUT!!!!!!!!!
As a Pats fan, I'll try to be objective, but I don't know how a banged up SD team comes into NE and wins. Would take lots of turnovers and ST plays. Of course it's possible, but with Rivers, LT & Gates not 100%, chances are slim.
It did when the Pats beat the Jags yep...
It's good to see you supporting your team."We don't talk; we produce."Yeah, you caught us with a new head coach still hung over from last years playoff loss earlier this year in Foxboro. But before that, the last time we were in Boston, we took names later: San Diego 41 New England 17

Seriously, I'd be pissed at this thread if I was a Bolts fan. Although, the Chargers already had a fork stuck in them before this thread popped up.The best they can hope for is not to be embarrassed.
I still think there's a chance, but I sure wouldn't be betting on it. If everyone was healthy, I honestly think SD would win this right now.
This is news? See Lakers re: Bynum, Andrew.But much like Phil Rivers's madcap antics TommyGunZ is TommyGunZ - he aint gonna change as much as some of us would like him to tone it down so he doesn't gooch our favorite team, AGAIN!
A fork??? When Gunz weighs in for you it's like Wiley Coyote v. Road Runner.
Is that coyote related to Wile E.?
Cut me some slack, I've been smoking the same stuff Gunz has.
Incorrect. Smack talk is always good. The upside is you get to crow loudly if your team wins. The downside is you have to deal with the cold reality if your team loses.Example: "Tony Eason is gonna lay waste to the Bears secondary, and punch Walter Payton and William Perry in da mouf!"
Why would he say such a thing?
I'm embarrassed for you for this post.nxmehta said:
Well he was amped up on HGH at the time, that he had just gotten from Brady, and he and Goodell were discussing the best ways to conceal the NFL conspiracy to hand another superbowl to the Pats. Belichick was supposed to be at the meeting, but he found out one of the other team's GMs was dying of cancer so he flew out there immediately to see if he could steal the guy's wife.I assume this reply meets with your approval. Run along now and go play on the freeway.phthalatemagic said:
Good stuff; thanks for posting.If I'm a Raider fan, I take comfort in the fact that Al can't hang on forever.I liked this article. I guess here's as good a place as any for it.
Good question. Obviously there is no Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, or Ronnie Lott, but I think LT, Eric Parker, and Marlon McCree, Roman Oben, and Shawne Merriman have been identified as team leaders in the past.Good stuff; thanks for posting.If I'm a Raider fan, I take comfort in the fact that Al can't hang on forever.I liked this article.

A related question: who are the "leaders in the locker room" on the Chargers roster? Is their youth a detriment, as it appears to be for the Cowboys?
Maybe LaDainian will read another poem to the team.I think the guys look up to Lorenzo Neal. I also think Jamal Williams has been more of a locker room presence this season. Gates seems to be a good influence and have a good perspective.Good question.

Boy aren't you clever. I guess you Hollywood writers have to do something with your time off.
You forgot about the toxic waste Pats fans who were in on the dirty little secret.
That was a very poor answer.-5/10
Any statistic that shows Rivers as better than Brady is flawed!
Would it have any relevance if I told you over the course of the season Brady was leading by far over every other quarterback? I'm just pointing out that despite the media attention that has so far from what I've seen focused on the Colts miscues that cost them the game and whatever smart ### interactions Rivers may have had with the fans that Rivers really had an awesome game and if he gets healthy and the line can protect him once again he might have another one in him.
nice find PL.
So, to paraphrase... IF he gets healthy, and IF the line plays out of its mind again... then he might be able to lead the Bolts to enough points to stay close?
The line doesn't need to play out of its mind. The Patriots have the weakest defense they have faced this postseason.So, to paraphrase... IF he gets healthy, and IF the line plays out of its mind again... then he might be able to lead the Bolts to enough points to stay close?
Is Eric Parker even in the NFL anymore?I know he's not in pads, but Lo Neal was the man among boys in that locker room. Donnie Edwards was also a big presence that has been lost.Good question.

On the field, but not in the locker room. I won't try to dig up a link since it was over a year ago, but it was a Union-Trib article that said many of his teammates privately resented his frequent griping about being underappreciated. He was not one of the team leaders in the locker room.
He's on IR.
OK, I said I wasn't going to, but I got the link:"But while he is widely referred to from the outside as a team leader, Edwards is rarely mentioned by teammates in the same vein as Tomlinson or Lorenzo Neal. And teammates privately lament his frequent gripes about being underappreciated."
Yes, all the travel makes it a very short week.They don't practice Monday or Tuesday of this week. They will practice Wednesday and Thursday afternoon, then fly to NE on Friday. They will hold a practice before the flight, but that's just three practices before Saturday's walk-through and Sunday's game. Rivers, Gates, and LT probably won't practice at all. (None of this is an excuse if the Chargers fail to win by more than a touchdown. It's just the way things worked out.)
