Game Thread W1 - Carolina V San Diego (1 Viewer)

From an out-of-market guy it looked like Chambers might not have even been on the field when the Chargers got down in the red zone. Is this correct?

Looks like Jackson is the down the field target for Rivers at this point... Despite the long bomb to Chambers in the first half...

Am I wrong?

You should know how it goes. Run on 1st down. If run > 3 yards, run again. If run =< 3 yards, pass. If incomplete, pass again. If distance_to_first_down OR distance_to_TD is > 2 yards, pass.

I wasn't paying attention, but you are probably right. Norv likes to go big in the red zone with Jackson (6'5"), Malcolm Floyd (6'5") and sometimes Davis (6'1") along with his two TES (6'4" and 6'2").
 
The Panthers deservedly won that. They outplayed the Chargers almost the entire game on both offense and defense... and they did it on the road in a pretty strong home-field environment.

 
Dear God Norv makes some bad decisions. Left way too much time on the clock when they were on the 5 yard line. Chip shot FG at worst, could have run down to the 2-minute warning, run a 3rd down play, then kicked with 90 seconds left in the game instead of giving Carolina the ball on the other side of the warning.

 
Talk about a bittersweet play.

That one pass cost me a $800 parlay (Chargers money line the final leg), but it also knocked 52 people out of my $7,000 suicide pool.

That is terrible criticism. If you have a shot to score a TD, to make the other team need to score a TD to win it, you do it.
 
I was practically screaming at the T.V. when they had something like 26 seconds left and the panthers were just strolling up to the line like they had all the time in the world.

What a finish!

 
At the end of the broadcast, they credited "Rosario Dawson" with 7 receptions, 86 yards, and a TD for Carolina. She's quite a woman.

 
End of the game extra point? Freebie?

So at the end of the game, everyone was out on the field. So it was impossible to kick the extra point. So how is it the game ended 26 to 24? Shouldn't it have been 25 to 24 with extra point being surrendered?

What gives?

 
Great game. The Chargers didn't show up until the second half. Carolina played very tough.

Rivers put to rest my doubts about his knee. He looked good under pressure. Gates generally looked like himself as well.

Matt Wilhelm and Derek Smith are horrible.

Besides the Chambers TD, Rivers has looked mediocre at best.

Good call. Rivers had a 125.1 QB rating today and led a 4th quarter comeback that should have been good enough to win if not for the SD defense.

Maurile,Unfortunately I'm on the East Coast and the only coverage of the game that I got was the last 2 minutes. WOW, what a finish!Can you shed some light on the following play?4-14-SD 37 (13:29) 5-M.Scifres punts 56 yards to CAR 7, Center-50-D.Binn. 84-M.Jones MUFFS catch, recovered by CAR-23-D.Wesley at CAR 0. Touchback. What actually happened here? How could it have been a Touchback if the Carolina player muffed it at the 7?

The ball hit the receiver (Mark Jones) and then bounced into the end zone, where Carolina recovered. If the Chargers had recovered, it would have been a touchdown, but since Carolina recovered, it was a touchback.
