What isn't every single chargers game on national TV? Seems like they have the flyest uniforms, a drug-addled defense and the best running back of the era. sounds like ratings gold.

If the NFL is like MLB, it's because they are from San Diego. No market!!!

You forgot about a TE so good he didn't even need to play college ball.

Funny thing about the Chargers is last years team that went 9-7 might have been better than the 13-3 team the year before. Thier schedules were so radically different.

I don't like high scoring games. Play some defense!

And what a lowlife cheapshot by McCree.

Depends on the cheap shot. Most likely not for what he did, though. He's got a hefty fine coming his way for sure.

so is LT like light years ahead of Barry Sanders at this point? Because I remember barry sanders being a machine, but that might just be nostalgia talking.

This Arizona/Dallas game is so sad that I'm watching a clippers game instead.

I expect this nonsense to come from Bloor or LooGAR*, not... Oh, wait, you're a Bears fan. So, yeah, I can see why you prefer defensive struggles, as well.

I don't think so. Sanders WAS a machine.

and, games I got today include: Washington v. Philly, ATL v. Cleveland, and the current Steelers v. Saints.

Terrible game between two teams I fucking loather
Terrible game where the Falcs, inexplicably, shit the bed
Pretty good game between two teams I fucking loathe.

Ahhhh, parity, and living in a no market zone.

He was a machine until he got in the red zone, then they had to put in another guy to get in the end zone. I'll take LTD over Barry any day of the week.

to me LT and sanders have about equal quality stats.
sanders has more yards per carry, LT has more recieving yards
LT has way more td's (per game) but LT has played with better teams.

Back it up with stats, jocko. I seem to remember that you were more concerned with King Coffey and el cid during the Sanders' heyday than with the NFL.

(I'll take Emmitt over all of em)

LDT will have more touchdowns in 6 years than Barry had in 10.

And I saw Sanders plenty both in college and the NFL. I would have seen him more if they had been in the playoffs since I was more likely to watch the playoffs and Supr Bowl than anything in those days. Dude was awesome and I'm not taking anthing away. Shit, if he had been running behind the Dallas line, he'd probably have 25,000+ yards. But he did hav that reputation for not being as much an endzone guy as Emmitt.

I seriously have a huge mancrush on Philip Rivers. If the Chargers can be more consistent on D (even when they get Merriman back), they have a serious shot at going deep in the playoffs in Rivers' first year as starter.

LT... reminds me of Marshall Faulk when he was coming out of SDSU. He was an amazing back. LT has more speed and big-play-making ability, but both have amazing skill and both are great competitors with a humble attitude, which NFL could use more of.



Um, how about Marques Colston? Fucking bad ass.

Normally I'd take my football is infoulable in the eyes of the sports media stance & agree with you, I still think there's merit to that arguement in this. But I also think there's a logical explanation. Holy records are being threatened & broken by steroid users in basball. That's a hell of a lot different than John Welbourn testing positive. Even Merriman doesn't raise it to McGuire/Sosa/Bonds levels MLB is dealing with.

Predicting you'll get a 2,000 yard season, like he did in August '05, is humble?
