Chargers' Collective Effort Holds Off Dangerous Eagles Team

noreply@blogger.com (Rob Zepeda) — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 20:00:00 +0000

At 2-3 in October, the San Diego Chargers appeared all but dead in the water. Battling some key injuries early, the Chargers struggled to get in a rhythm and establish an identity. Can they still pound the rock and pick up those tough yards, or are they a pass-heavy team that would live and die by...

noreply@blogger.com (Rob Zepeda) — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 20:00:00 +0000

The Philadelphia Eagles come to San Diego looking in many ways like the Charger team they face; both teams possess elite Quarterbacks with big-play receivers and feature an offense that leans heavily on the passing game.

Coming off of a two-game winning streak against division opponents, the San Diego Chargers head to New York to face a Giants team that has lost three straight.

Rivers vs. Manning: The Great Debate

noreply@blogger.com (Jeff Williams) — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 16:00:00 +0000

Rivers over Manning, or Manning over Rivers? It’s a question that will be asked for the rest of their respective careers. Chargers fans who hold a grudge don’t think twice before they side with Philip Rivers. Giants fans who hold a recent Super Bowl championship side with Eli Manning. At this point...

Centering In On The O-Line Struggles

noreply@blogger.com (Rob Zepeda) — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 21:05:00 +0000

One of the biggest issues the San Diego Chargers face on offense is the ability to establish the running game. While many pundits and fans alike point to Ladainian Tomlinson's age and durability as the main reason behind the Chargers' ground game struggles, I'd like to reiterate that the problems...

Chargers' Pro Bowl Picture Is Offensive

noreply@blogger.com (Rob Zepeda) — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 15:00:00 +0000

The ballots have opened and voting has commenced for the 2010 Pro Bowl. While the Chargers might be at .500 right now, they do have a few players more than worthy for trips to Miami, particularly on the offensive side of the ball. VINCENT JACKSON Vincent Jackson's 561 receiving yards currently...

4th And Goal With Jeff Williams

noreply@blogger.com (Jeff Williams) — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 15:00:00 +0000

Since the Chargers lost to Denver last Monday, I've had a lot on my mind. Stuff like "throwback jerseys are good, throwback cheerleader outfits are not as good." Or, "I sure like Jon Gruden when he doesn't work in Oakland." But mostly it's been, "What happened to this team we called a Super Bowl...

Norv Turner In Danger Of Losing His Locker Room?

noreply@blogger.com (Rob Zepeda) — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 14:00:00 +0000

San Diego Chargers Head Coach Norv Turner made arguably his most questionable playcall this past Monday against division rival Denver Broncos. In the first quarter on third and goal, the Chargers lined up in a goalline formation with their heavy personnel package, determined to run the ball for a...

Where Do The Chargers Go From Here?

noreply@blogger.com (Jeff Williams) — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 15:30:00 +0000

After Monday's loss to the Denver Broncos, the San Diego Chargers find themselves below .500 with a two game losing streak. While they are not mathematically eliminated from the AFC West Division race, the Chargers have potentially dug themselves a hole that is too deep to get out of. A lot of fans...

Chargers' Problems Start With Their Dotted Line

noreply@blogger.com (Rob Zepeda) — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 22:00:00 +0000

From 2005 through 2008, the Chargers drafted a grand total of one defensive lineman, 7th round pick Chase Page who is no longer in the NFL. Funny thing is, BOLTHYPE has listed Defensive Tackle as a draft need for the Chargers for the past few years, knowing the lease on a healthy Jamal Williams...

The Pressure Is On: Undefeated Broncos Coming To SD

noreply@blogger.com (Jeff Williams) — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 20:00:00 +0000

In case you missed it, the Broncos are now 5-0 after defeating the New England Patriots in overtime. After starting 3-0, it was believed that Denver had gotten lucky against some pretty bad teams. At 4-0, I thought that they got a good win against a Dallas team who never plays up to expectations....

Chargers Bye Week Analysis: Offense

noreply@blogger.com (Jeff Williams) — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 16:00:00 +0000

At the beginning of the 2009 season, many predicted the Chargers would lose at least one, and quite possibly two games before the bye week, so the Chargers 2-2 record should not be that much of a surprise. Three of their first four games were against 2008 playoff teams, and none of them were...

San Diego Chargers Must Be Open To Changes On Defense

noreply@blogger.com (Rob Zepeda) — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 22:00:00 +0000

The San Diego Chargers are no longer one of the premier 3-4 defenses in the National Football League, and losing their mammoth All-Pro Defensive Tackle Jamal Williams to a triceps injury is a very large reason why (figuratively and literally). When Williams was placed on injured-reserve, fans held...

Chargers vs Steelers: The Rematch

noreply@blogger.com (Jeff Williams) — Sun, 04 Oct 2009 16:00:00 +0000

In 2008, the Chargers were 0-2 against the Steelers. In the regular season last year, the Chargers lost a tight one by the score of 11-10, a game that was really no where near as close as that score indicated. After the Chargers were lucky enough to make it into the postseason, they took an early...
