Chargers Post Another Epic Choke; Chargers Stink

In what has become a theme of the 2012 season, the San Diego Chargers found an epic way to lose another football game.  Like blowing a 24 point lead and losing by double digits isn't epic enough way to lose and be the laughingstock of the NFL, the Chargers continue to find ways to display their full suckitude.

All the Charger defense had to do was to stop the Baltimore Ravens from converting on a fourth and 29 and the game would be over.  And fourth and 29 you would think a team would try a deep pass or something down the field...not the Ravens for they know how deficient the Chargers are...they simply dump the ball off to Ray Rice who then proceeds to make the Charger defense look like an episode from the three stooges...as Charger defenders collide into each other and glance off of Ray Rice which thus leads to the Ravens to tying the game.  Sure the game goes to overtime and the Chargers had a chance to save some face...but like much of this year the Chargers stop scoring in the second half and going into the fourth quarter up by 10 points couldn't even muster another field goal to either put the game away or win it in overtime.  The Chargers were able to make 2 first downs on their first possession in ot but didn't cross midfield and went three and out on their next.  The Ravens, meanwhile, seemed to know they controlled the game.  After failing to convert on many third downs throughout the game the Ravens found new life in the latter stages of the game and converted on many third downs and on 3 and 10 in overtime, they completed a 31 yard pass that set up the game winning field goal.

There is little doubt in my mind that the Chargers have now descended into being one of the two worst teams in the NFL.  The Chiefs maybe the only team lower than the Chargers, because Jacksonville seems to be playing better these days.

And here we are Monday morning...and so far no sign or hint that Norv Turner is going to get canned anytime soon even after the embarrassment that is becoming the 2012 season.  I, like many other Charger fans, are simply stunned that Turner continues to be the head coach despite the mind-numbing way this team loses under him.  There is little hope in Chargerland and even a 6-10 season has become "hopeful", something that some other Charger fans were certain to rip into me when I made that assessment prior to the season starting...funny thing is, really can't find too many of those Charger fans anymore.
