Chargers Post Epic Choke Against Denver

As I am writing this, there is 2:00 left in the game... The Chargers are down by 11 points, 35-24.

The Chargers, like last week, jump out to a nice first half lead and then totally fold up the tent and call it a game and this week was in even a bigger epic fashion than last week...

After owning the first half, picking off Peyton Manning and ruining ESPN's pre-planned Peyton Manning lovefest, going up 24-0, then Phillip Rivers, literally, hands the ball to the Broncos in the form of 2 pick sixes and a fumble recovery for a td as well as an additional interception.  I've stuck up for Rivers for a long time but I can no longer do so.  Last year, I had hoped, was just an aberration, but Rivers seems to be getting worse and worse every game.  It is almost painful to watch how predictable he has become with throwing interceptions and bad passes.

The second half, the Broncos had no fear of the Chargers and the Chargers had no interest in trying anymore.  They were completely and thoroughly embarrassed on national television, something that is standard operating procedure under Norv Turner's tenure as coach of the Chargers.

The good news is that the Chargers won't lose next week because it is their bye week...the bad news is that ESPN and every other sports outlet is going to be slobbering over Peyton Manning's cock for the next week...but he didn't win this game...Phillip Rivers lost this game for the Chargers...plan and simple.

The Chargers were in first place going into this game and I suspect that will be the last time they will sniff "contention" for the rest of this season.

Norv Turner can not out coach anyone, it has been proven time and time again.

Is the season over?  No and those with hope will still have it.  Unfortunately, this season is going just about as well as I thought it would...

BTW, the game is over, and Rivers ends the game with SIX turnovers.  Tirico is already trying to get Gruden off of Manning's cock so he can get his turn...

DISGUSTING is all I can say.
