Mathews healthy? Seems like no touched for some time? Touch limit?

 

[Polar Dude]

Rams, Ravens, Patriots, Broncos, 49ers, Chiefs left on the schedule for the Chargers.

Is there a winnable game for them left on the schedule?

 

[Jerry Curl]

Mathews healthy? Seems like no touched for some time? Touch limit?

Getting him back into game shape this week I would guess. Snap count.

Wondering the same thing. Anyone watching the game care to chime in? TIA.

 

[Polar Dude]

It's nice to get some points on the board, but those points don't count if you can't get in the endzone in the next four minutes. I would have went for the touchdown.

Oakland wants to keep company with the 2008 Detroit Lions. They should just to go for it inside the 10.

Exactly... Sporano is more interested in keeping it close than he is in winning the game. Poor coaching mentality.

 

[Polar Dude]

Matthews didn't show much enthusiasm in that last carry.

Whereas Oliver always runs with enthusiasm.

Somerhing is very wrong with Rivers today. He looks like Gabbert.

 

[Polar Dude]

You need five yards and you give it to Donald Brown who is averaging less than two yards per carry on the season?

 

[need2know]

do the chargers know that if they get a first down they win the game? thats some pu ss y play calling

My mistake.... 2.4 yds/carry

Did Wilcotts say that it was a crazy or a courageous throw when Carr tossed it into triple coverage?

He did get his left ankle rolled on by an OL/defensive player earlier. Not sure how much that affected him in the 2nd half

 

[MarshallRob]

Clearly 1 or 2 seconds left on clock when the Hail Mary hit the ground. Refs say game is over. Strange.

Yeap

 

[Polar Dude]

So a "Tiger Slam" is when a golfer wins all of the majors in a row over the course of two seasons. What do we call it when a team goes 0-16 over two seasons?

 

[Maurile Tremblay]

Latavius Murray should start next week.

Yeah, I saw that. He also took a lot of hits, but he's not even looking for passes over 10 yards. To me it seems that he just played scared today after having no time to go through his progressions.

Pretty sad when I'm excited about a win against the Raiders.

 

[DanFouts]

Pathetic showing by bolts. They'll lose out for rest of season with that play calling, motivation, and O-line.

 

[Bucky86]

Chargers barely looked better than the raiturds. We're ####ed

 

[Maurile Tremblay]

Latavius Murray should start next week.

Could happen.

 

[Carter_Can_Fly]

Latavius Murray should start next week.

Could happen.

Oakland is a mess. They should do a lot of things and don't. It really has become a fantasy wasteland.

Rivers is injured

Speculation based on his play, or reported?

Gates mentioned a 'very severe' rib injury that Rivers has been dealing with for three or four weeks. Those hurt like #### and might explain his body language/performances. He just doesn't look right.Edit: "Chargers tight end Antonio Gates said after Sunday's win over the Raiders that Rivers has been dealing with a serious rib injury for the past few weeks, Michael Gehlken of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports. "For those who don't know, he's been dealing with a rib injury," Gates said. "A very severe rib injury.""
