CHARGERS VS RAIDERS - THE AFTERMATH - OCT 15, 2014

   What a game ? Scared alot of charger fans and players. No excuses , but the Raiders had two weeks to prepare , a new coach and new game plan the chargers had nothing to prepare for and props to Coach Sparano, he used and abused Derrick Car and company!
  But at then end , at crunch time , when it mattered most m they the raiders could not finish and when they lived and died by the long pass , it finally caught u with them.. They lack of a consistent running game or protection on the line.. was evident sure No sacks but nearly 20 incomplete passes and and ill advised pass at the end of the game was because they still need a better line defense and offense and a true number one receiver.. They played Hard but another loss. 
   The raiders now have to decide where they want to? Stick with this coach , change the GM and changing of the roster. Too many wasted pay days on aging veterans and trading away draft picks for players that are not producing.
 on the charger side, they were tricked or not ready for such a game plan.. I mean the raiders have done nothing in their previous games to make you think they could do that. But it was a nice wake up call for the chargers ..Now they know they can win a game when they played terrible. They found a way to win.. A great character win.. In the past with Nervous Norv , they would find a way to lose. Now they are winning those close games.. It takes character to fight back from adversity and win a game with a defensive stop. I know offense scores points , but a great defense can save you points and give energy to a offense. Point if your offense is comfortable you can  hold a team,they are eager to score points and take advantage of scoring chances. Its a team sport every phase has to play well for a team to win.. and right now the chargers are playing well in all the phases. Its a great feeling for charger fans that the Spanos family got it right with the Tom telsco and Mike McCoy hiring we have a GM that knows what talent is needed and a Coach that knows how to use that talent and get the best out of them. Its one thing to have talent , but a true coach knows how to motivate his players and get the best out of them. I really like the chemistry and passion this team shows every week of the season. Even after a heartbreaking opening day loss onthe road, they bounced back with a decisive home opener win against the seahawks.. I know , it was a home chargersgame  win, the hawks are lousy on the road. I don't buy that. seahawks are a great team struggling right now.but they gave the chargers a fight. Now the key is injuries , if theres one weakness the bolts have is those injuries have piled up.. Now they have to keep winning and when these star payers return.. Just imagine how great the chargers are.. Maybe the football Gods are smiling on the Chargers, but having the injuries now , then in the playoffs,, ?? Who knows,, But its great how the chargers have started and now the tough part of the schedule kicks in.. The Chargers have a big game next Thursday after playing another road game , this will be 3 games in a 11 day period? If anything they are making the chargers mentally tougher but having such a grinding schedule. Plus the coaches have done a great job getting the replacements playing well or even better than the starters.. 
 Its still a Long season, but I like the way the chargers are playing and winning, the defense has stepped up during crunch time,, and the offense is making plays when they have too. Now just imagine if Mathew's, woodhead , and hardwick our stars were healthy and ready,,, This team will be dangerous.. 
 Bottom line.. be patient with this team.. The offensive line will develop and the players will get back in the line up sooner than later and who knows? 
 Feb 2015.. could be a lucky month . Its four months away , but they way the chargers are playing .. the long awaited SUPER BOWL TRIP will be a happy one.
  They have the formula for success"
Strong offense with a MVP type performance by Philip Rivers and  underrated almost neglected receiving corps of gates, Allen, royal . Floyd ..and the rookie sensation running of Branden Oliver and the surging and improved defense that can stop the run and pass and cause turnovers and score. No one wants to give credit to the SAN DIEGO CHARGERS because they have disappointed many the fan and experts when they have played great regular season football. The key is that if you want people , critics and players to give you credit , you must win the Lombardi trophy . The Chargers right here , right now are playing the best football and if they keep that up.. A championship will happen. For now , the east coast bias , and disrespect I observe on the networks,,, will change , but only if the chargers go all the way.. Its doesn't matter what we think or the experts think? Its  Coach McCoy and his staff and those wonderful players believe in. !! Based on what I have seen they believe they can achieve and that's good enough for me.. Enjoy fans , because moments like this a seldom felt in San Diego.. lets enjoy the ride , because stranger things  happen,. like the Giants upsetting the patriots in Superbowl's.. or teams never winning finally breaking through ..Ravens,  Rams, Buccaneers, Saints.. The Chargers may join the club.. in the future.  But the future may be now the way they are playing and Lets enjoy it..because moments like this are golden.. !! Have a great day and football weekend!!
