go mathews!!

 

[cdwood]

Go Chargers, got $$ on the game, go Matthews, got him on my dynasty team.

Rams driving well into San Diego territory, but then a crapload of various penalties slows the game down (2 on each team). Danario Alexander catches his first pass, then Bradford throws it nowhere near Gilyard in the end zone..

Still, pretty nice drive.

 

[cdwood]

Brown kicks a 39 yard field goal. Rams lead 3-0. Rams had a good punt return into Chargers territory, made a few plays to move into the redzone, then got bogged down by penalties and were forced to kick the field goal.

 

[TS Garp]

Gates banged up -- on the sidelines...

 

[GoBirds]

How bad Gates injury look?

 

[TS Garp]

How bad Gates injury look?

He's trying to walk it off. Doesn't look serious, but hard to tell right now.

 

[Michael Brown]

Didn't look too bad, his ankle or foot looked to get pinned down as he was blocking during a Mathews run.

 

[cdwood]

How bad Gates injury look?

No word yet, but he's walking around all gimpy like, trying to walk it off.

 

[TS Garp]

Gates isn't back in yet.

 

[TS Garp]

Here he comes.

 

[TS Garp]

Mathews is so much better than Tolbert...glad Norv finally realized it.

 

[TS Garp]

As if on cue, there goes Tolbert for 1 yard.

 

[TS Garp]

I don't get it -- Mathews runs for 17 yards and Norv takes him out. Tolbert runs for 1 yard and misses a block. Make that two blocks.

 

[cdwood]

I don't get it -- Mathews runs for 17 yards and Norv takes him out. Tolbert runs for 1 yard and misses a block. Make that two blocks.

Maybe Matthews needed a breather after that run.

 

[TS Garp]

The Chargers look flat. Once again.

Maybe, but he was out for the next 4 plays.

 

[Ghost Rider]

I think Norv Turner is incapable of getting his team "up" for a road game this year.

Meanwhile, the Rams defense is flying all around like it was two weeks vs the Seahawks.

 

[cdwood]

The Chargers look flat. Once again.

Two sacks and an interception will do that to you.

 

[Maurile Tremblay]

Danario Alexander. Upgrade him.

 

[JahVideo_Kilt_Radio_Star]

Shark pool goes nuts. Alexander with catch

td aleander!

 

[TS Garp]

Wow. Just wow.

 

[lyon812]

Danario Alexander, 3-59 with a touchdown. Very nice diving catch and concentration.

 

[TS Garp]

Bradford looks very much in control -- have to like him in dynasty leagues.

 

[lyon812]

Bradford looks very much in control -- have to like him in dynasty leagues.

He's revitalized the franchise and fanbase. I wasn't sold on him before the draft, but sure am now.

 

[TS Garp]

Wow, who played the Rams defense today?

 

[lyon812]

Chris Long's awesome start to the season finally showing up in the stat lines.

 

[cdwood]

Bradford looks very much in control -- have to like him in dynasty leagues.

He's revitalized the franchise and fanbase. I wasn't sold on him before the draft, but sure am now.

He's certainly given them optimism for the future. I think I was sold when he led them from a comeback win over the Redskins. The next step is a road victory.

 

[lyon812]

Regardless of how the rest of the game goes, proud of the Rams for coming out energized after the beating the Lions gave them.

Wow, what an odd sentence that was.

 

[TS Garp]

What's up with the Rams' center?

 

[cdwood]

What's up with the Rams' center?

Maybe he thinks he's snapping to the punter.

 

[Michael Brown]

In San Diego's first 3 losses, you could blame it on special teams play and flukey stuff. But today, they are just being manhandled.

 

[lyon812]

Wow, don't see Gates drop that very often.

 

[Yenrub]

What is up with the Chargers today?

 

[Michael Brown]

CBS didn't show the replay long enough, but did I hear Beuerlein say Gates had his foot rolled up on again?

 

[lyon812]

What's up with the Rams' center?

Maybe he thinks he's snapping to the punter.

It did get to be something of a habit last year. =p

 

[Maurile Tremblay]

Goodman is active. Why isn't he returning kickoffs?

 

[cdwood]

What is up with the Chargers today?

I don't know their record at home vs on the road, but maybe they're becoming a team that only wins at home and can't win on the road.

 

[Maurile Tremblay]

CBS didn't show the replay long enough, but did I hear Beuerlein say Gates had his foot rolled up on again?

Yes. It was just after he dropped the pass; the defender fell on the back of his legs. It didn't look like the kind of thing that would originally cause an injury, but the ankle was already tender and it looked like Gates was in pain.

 

[TS Garp]

You're kidding me. The Chargers look like garbage.

 

[Maurile Tremblay]

Bradford really doesn't look like a rookie at all.

 

[lyon812]

Nice sliding catch by Gilyard.

 

[Yenrub]

Bradford really doesn't look like a rookie at all.

Great for my dynasty team but I was hoping he would look like a rookie today b/c I started the Charger defense

 

[Balco]

Now just imagine how great Bradford will be when they upgrade their receiving corps. What a bright future he has.

 

[cdwood]

You're kidding me. The Chargers look like garbage.

It's very noticeable when the Rams can get pressure on Rivers and the Chargers can't get any on Bradford.

 

[lyon812]

Bradford really doesn't look like a rookie at all.

Indeed. He can still stare down his targets on occasion, and forces a few balls, but hell, that's normal. What's really been astonishing to me over the last few games is 1) their willingness to use spread formations, and 2) the fact they're not relying on Jackson to set up the pass.

 

[Choke]

Bradford still doesnt throw/dump to Jackson very often.

Its nice that he doesnt have to, its nice that SJ doesnt get overworked. But its damn odd regardless - considering SJs talent level on that offense.

 

[timschochet]

Now just imagine how great Bradford will be when they upgrade their receiving corps. What a bright future he has.

He looks very special.

Steve Beurlein:

"That's no slouch -- thats Quentin Jammer. He's a pro bowler. He's been to the Pro Bowl several times."

Um, okay...
