CHARGERS VS DOLPHINS- THE MASSACRE IN MIAMI NOV 2014...

CHARGERS VS DOLPHINS - THE MASSACRE IN MIAMI NOV 2014..
   The San Diego Chargers were tricked and treated to a worst defeat in franchise history, I mean , come on guys, you made the inconsistent dolphins look like the greatest show on turf. It was bad enough to be out played at home by the Chiefs and then follow up that performance on national TV and get blown out by the Broncos.. those late scores were garbage points against the broncos and the dolphins game just showed what this team is made of? 
  First of,, enough of the injury excuse, the chargers are soft, I mean young players like ingraham, teo , etc.. are getting hurt when they are young , what happens when they get older , if they last that long. Second , the players that are replacing them are not better , and are essentially role players that have played out their potentials.. Without Rivers this team can be 0-9 easy , Rivers saved those other games the bolts won.. I mean beating the Jaguars, Jets and Raiders ,, with a combined record of losing doesnt make you a contender. Yes, the Chargers developed great stats early , but now they have the worst ed zone defense in the league, they cant stop the run or pass, they have no pass rush and no fire on defense. I'm not surpirsed because no leaders on defense. Weddle is the only one , but you need more than that. As for the offense. You have Rivers , but no running back leader , no wide out leader. I like Malcolm ,but he is no leader and keenan allen needs to step up his play. Its easy to break out in your rookie year when you don't have film on you,, This year , he has been disappointing to say the least. I have watched a lot of Charger football. This was the worst I ever saw,, They had no fire or desire , and they just went through the motions.. The one guy that had fight was tutu , but no one helped him out , if you watch the replays. He was fighting for the chargers  but the chargers have a bunch of characters , but not enough with true character's. Case in point.. The Steelers , got their butts kicked weeks ago.. But their Leaders on the team . said enough is enough and now playing some of the best football today. Hard nose , kick ass,, tough football. Not. looking for flags , or looking for others to bail them out.. They are fighters,that's why they have won the most Superbowl's , and have some of the most loyal fans in the league. They play football , like its supposed to be.. tough , grinding , in your face physical football. 
 But the chargers don't want to play that ? The book is out , get physical and take the desire from this team , they don't have the mental attitude to bounce back.. It showed against the chief, broncos and now the dolphins... Thank goodness for a break? heck they have been on a break since the chiefs game.. The Raiders are coming and to be honest they were dominating the chargers earlier in the season, before they imploded.. but since then they have payed hard and shown more heart the chargers , if the chargers have true character then they will regroup and bet the raiders , but too many excuses about injuries , about the tough schedule and having a young coach , rookie coordinator, yeah , yeah,, yeah, but the bottom line.. players have to play.. and the Chargers are not playing well.. 
 case in point.. Rivers was taken out , and clemens did worse .. because no pass protection,no communicating among wide outs and just being out played and out hustled. The culture of the chargers is not good, they are not tough enough to be contenders. They started strong only to be exposed as a team that beats bad teams and lose to the true contenders. I know , alot of you guys think dolphins are a bad team,, if that's true,, then the chargers are horrible.. \
   Lets hope the core players like Mathews, teo/Ingrahan, Flowers , Verret and others heal up and come to play , because after the raiders and rams , beatable teams we hope,?, come the true heart of the schedule .. Broncos, Ravens, Patriots , 49ers and Chiefs.. All contenders in my mind and the Bolts need to have a win out to even have  a chance for the playoffs and based on how they have played this year home and on the road. That may not happen, if you don't have pass protection or run game or a defense that has no pass rush and a hurt and depleted secondary and lets not forget the painfully slow linebackers,, and back ups to say the least.  All those teams have superbowl winning or playoff experience on their side .. The Charger staff has a young head coach , a rookie coordinator and a emotional quarterback that when things go wrong resorts to  the losing rivers ,, 2010-12- where he loves to throw it up.. those years he threw the most picks of any qb in the league.. 
  Bottom line,
   it doesn't matter if we get Mathews back, with no pass or run blocking , he's a hit away from being injured and probably has no eager need to return anytime soon. On defense , we have no pass rush and the linebackers we do have are getting run over by lineman and running backs,,, or even quartrebacks,, tannehill run over the bolts.. so did alex smith ,, and lets not forget charles , and former san diego state star hillman. Whats troubling is that the charger fans think the chargers are contenders, lets not forget the bolts needed a missed field goal to make the playoffs last year , plus a total collapse from other afc team last year..BUt Guess what? The Steelers, ravens and even the Chiefs are better than last year.. 
 While the chargers ,, at first looked better , but too many injuries to key players and a rookie offensive coordinator has been their downfall. We cant blame the chargers, they are playing to their potential , the problem is , they are not that good.  My analysis is this , the chargers will be hard pressed to duplicate last years 9-7 record and playoff berth. 
 Based on the many issues they have, back up centers , who cant stay healthy , offensive linemen geting hurt weekly and lets not forget the defense taking turns sitting on the bench, ingrahma, teo, flowers, verret. Its the hard truth.. The chargers lack the character to bounce back and fight , I saw it in the Chiefs and Broncos loss and saw it when TUTU was fighting the dolphins and no one helped him out. Maybe its not just the chargers , its just today's youth, that doesn't have the fire and desire like alot of the old timer fans we are. But atleast the old Charger teams win or loss m they had fight in them.. But today's group was embarrassing last Sunday and to be honest the past 3 weeks and counting. I hope they have to swallow up and hear all those nay sayers , the east coast media , saying " The same old story with the chargers, tease their fans with early success , only to choke in clutch , crunch time.. Its maddening to be a charger fan..because for 50 year and counting seem to always give us hope early ,late in the season, only to break our hearts at the end.. I used to get mad, even cry when they did that to me.. But now ,, I come to just accept it , as the way the chargers play.. I used to fight that notion from other fans bases,, but after so many years of the same trend.. Its sad but true , the chargers seem to always find a  way to spoil a great thing. From the one championship year in 1963 , and since then the team has faltered when it mattered most. The  The Air Coryell, Bobby(boss)  Ross , to Marty Schottenheimer years.. the Owners , and fans have little patience when things go bad, and because of that lack of patience.. the Chargers are going to destroy another hopeful season , because the fans and owners of the chargers don't realize you need quality players to win championships , not bargain basement , often injured players with no leadership skills. Maybe its a San Diego curse issue , because once upon a time the Padres had a great manager Bochy.. remember him,, he's a 3 time world series manager , for the San Francisco giants.. But why cry about that? 
  The San Diego Chargers need to realize this team needs help in the upcoming drafts or free agency, before they can be true contenders for years. The 6 years years of nervous norv , will take a little more time to fix.. Lets hope Rivers can play another 5-7 years , because if not than like the raiders until they found carr, the chargers maybe looking at being cellar dwellars and that's whats in store of they don't address the many issues I have listed. I'm a gambling man, and I wouldn't bet on this team winning the division or earning a wild card spot , with the roster they have now.. but then again this is the NFL - THE NO FIGURE LEAGUE, and stranger things have happened. Its just a shame the Chargers are not taking advantage of the most unpredictable years in the NFL.. But , lets hope this long break form football doesn't waken their spirit, but based on how they have played this year, its hard to think they can turn things around.. with out a solid offensive line, running game and no pass rush and slow line backers and a often injured secondary.. 
    The Massacre in Miami , could be a turning point for this season, but the trends and straight stats about lowest running game and the last place rated red zone defense , serves the recipe for losing then to winning. But that's why they play the games, games are won the field , not in the night clubs of Miami or San Diego.. Instead of having a team with character , instead we have a bunch of characters that want to do more scoring at night clubs than on the football field.. Hey the truth hurts the 3 game losing streaks has displayed how badly this team has become. After the bye week we will see the real chargers show up.? The one that was 5-1 rated number one , or the 5-4 , on a 3 game losing streak that cant score against a mediocre team.. Its no wonder the east coast media doesn't take the chargers seriously because the charger team doesn't care either? Until the next blog.. have a great day!!
