San Diego earns last playoff spot with 52-21 win over Denver

Posted by Bill Jempty · Published: December 29, 2008

The AFC West champs after last night's victory will host Indianapolis next weekend. San Diego recovered from a bad start to make the playoffs. This team has the potential to make the AFC Championship game. Their biggest stumbling point I think is Indianapolis, not Tennessee. The Titans had a great... [Full Story]

Basement to the Penthouse- Miami wins the AFC East with 24-17 win over NY Jets

Posted by Bill Jempty · Published: December 28, 2008

What a ride the 2008 season was for Dolphin fans after the despair of last season. First I must mention my pre-season prediction for the Fins. I safely think they can win 4 or 5 games. More is possible because the schedule is weak, but Miami on the other hand... [Full Story]

The Dolphins(1-2) play host to the San Diego Chargers(2-2) this afternoon. Miami was off last week, but the week before saw the fins upset the heavily favored New England Patriots by the score of 38-13. One of the keys to beating New England, was Miami's use of trick plays. What's... [Full Story]

Posted by Bill Jempty · Published: July 5, 2008

He died in a auto accident late last night. If not for Kiel's arrest for shipping cough medicine two years ago, I would most likely not even remember him. RIP. SAN DIEGO - Former Chargers safety Terrence Kiel was killed after he was thrown from a Chevy sedan he was... [Full Story]

Philip Rivers is Also a Man

Posted by Dan Zinski · Published: January 21, 2008 · Comments (3)

Tom Coughlin was a man for standing on the sideline of the whole Packers/Giants game with nothing covering his face (which he peeled off after the game, signed and gave to charity). But Philip Rivers was an even bigger man on Sunday - for playing an entire game at QB... [Full Story]

Rivers May Not Play

Posted by Dan Zinski · Published: January 18, 2008 · Comments (2)

Really bad news for San Diego Chargers fans - QB Philip Rivers is listed as doubtful for Sunday's AFC Championship Game at New England. Rivers, reports the San Diego Union-Tribune, has a partially torn ACL in his right knee to go with a sprained MCL. If Rivers can't go (and... [Full Story]

With the Antonio Gates drama settled the key components for the Charger offense are in place, the defending AFC West Champions are out to prove that last year was no fluke.

Charger Fans Don't Display Optimism

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: June 14, 2005

Yes, the headline of this entry is accurate...that fans of the San Diego Chargers shouldn't show optimistim for the upcoming 2005-06 season. Why? Because not since the early '80's has a Charger team began a season as a 'power' and/or 'the team to beat'. Even after their Super Bowl appearance... [Full Story]

2005 Charger Draft Review

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: April 26, 2005

Their first pick (12th overall) was used to draft a pass rushing linebacker, Shawne Merriman. The pass rush, as I mentioned on April 10th, was an area that needed to be addressed...and address it they did. With their second pick (28th overall) they drafted a defensive end. Of course getting... [Full Story]

Chargers 2005 Draft

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: April 20, 2005

I think the Chargers are going to use their 2 first round picks, 12th and 28th overall. I would like to see them get either a safety, wide reciever or defensive tackle/lineman. Since Rodney Harrison was let go - a move I didn't like - the Chargers haven't had consistent... [Full Story]

4th Quarter Collapse

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: October 19, 2004

The Chargers held the greatest quarterback the NFL has ever seen, (sarcasm, my friends, sarcasm) Mike Vick, to meager stats through 3 quarters...and his final numbers were anything than impressive, but the Chargers defense, mis-managed timeout situation and penalties were the ultimate demise for the team and will help Vick...

Chargers Continue To Look Good

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: October 11, 2004

For the second straight week the Chargers did not turn the ball over, jumped to big first half leads, scored over 30 points and as a result, won both of their games to go to 3-2 on the season. This past victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars may be the confidence... [Full Story]

Chargers Looked Good

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: October 5, 2004

The question about the San Diego Chargers 38-17 win over the Titans that has all the NFL 'experts' lamenting is whether the Chargers are actually a competent team or are the Titans that pathetic? One week after Drew Brees could barely get a pass within 20 yards of a Charger... [Full Story]

Same Charger Team Equals Same Results

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: September 26, 2004

My early season prediction of the Chargers not winning a game may not be 100% accurate, but I think I may only be 1 game off. The Chargers go into Denver and never really were in this game...and to the casual viewer of Charger games, one may have thought the... [Full Story]

Looked Close - But Wasn't

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: September 22, 2004

The Chargers ended up losing by 6 to the Jets (34-28) this past Sunday, but the game wasn't that close. The Jets had a 14-0 lead after their first 2 possessions and the Chargers had 4 total turnovers. A 87 yard kickoff return by Tim Dwight was the big highlight... [Full Story]

Week 1 Review

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: September 15, 2004

The Chargers have already proven me wrong... prior to the season beginning I saw no improvement on either side of the ball and predicted a winless season. The Chargers then preceded to go out and win in Houston...obviously not an upper-echelon team, but a season-opening win on the road can... [Full Story]

Tomlinson: Highest Paid Running Back In NFL

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: August 13, 2004 · Comments (2)

The move is a no-brainer... the Tomlinson is arguably the best runningback in the league and is now making the salary that he deserves. After halting talks with their number 1 pick, Phillip Rivers, the Chargers show that they are not afraid to spend some money on players that have... [Full Story]

Rivers Holding Out

My June 21st blog entry spelled out many of the problems of the Chargers. None of those problem areas have been addressed and to add to the quagmire, there is the Chargers' #1 pick, Phillip Rivers, is holding out.

With the conclusion of the 2004 draft and the opening of mini-camps means the 'buzz' begins about the 2004-05 football campaigns. Most fans of teams look to the new season as one of hope and promise....that is unless you are a San Diego Charger fan. The Chargers are clearly the... [Full Story]

Giants-Chargers Talk No. 1 Pick

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: April 8, 2004 · Comments (1)

The Chargers have made little to no effort in signing a free agent quarterback and after re-signing Flutie, it appears as if Schottenheimer and company are content with the quarterback situation as it stands right now. A trade down and acquiring any respectable linemen on either side of the ball... [Full Story]

‘04 AFC West Finish

Posted by Sports Blog Archive · Published: April 3, 2004

Looking around the world of Broncos fans I see that some are already asking, “Who will win the AFC West”. Personally, I think it’s a little early to be making such predictions, though I must humbly (ok, not really very humbly at all) admit that I did correctly predict last... [Full Story]
