Okay then,sorry about the misunderstanding.my apologies.yeah I'll have to talk about martyball and the kansas city clowns at this other message board I post at instead because yeah they dont have the interest in it that I do here.LOL. Im just glad he is finally gone from the chargers who went from being my favorite team for so many years to being my most hated team after he got there,now I can love them again.
But what I was saying in that post is that would be a good point if you were comparing who the Chargers played LAST YEAR in the playoffs and who the Chargers played this year, but the Patriots arent the team I was comparing them to.What I AM comparing them to is what team the Chargers played in Martys FIRST playoff loss with the Chargers and who Norv beat in his first playoff victory with the Chargers, which is the ONLY fair thing to do.And that proves that Marty, even when playing a team not all that great,loses in the playoffs despite having extremely talented players.
Heres the comparison-Martys FIRST playoff game with the Chargers was in 2004 against the Jets.It also was a wild card first round game at home.The Jets coach back then was 'HERM THE WORM' Herman Edwards.
Who Chiefs fans here in Kansas city want axed and actually would prefer to have Marty back coaching instead of him if they had a choice to choose from.Edwards has turned the Chiefs into the worst team in the NFL next to only the Miami Dolphins.The Kansas City Clowns is the name they really should have now, especially now..LOL. You dont think Edwards is a good coach do you?LOL. Jeff Fisher-like him or hate him,you cant argue is a pretty good coach.
The Jets back then under Herm Edwards werent that good of a team, and really didnt belong in the playoffs.I can bring up posts from back then if you like of people who agreed with me as well that the Jets werent that good of a team.Look at who their quarterback was back then and where he is now.Chad Pennington who is now a backup for them.He never did play very well with the Jets when he got into playoff games.
what I was saying in that post was giving examples on how Marty made asinine decisons that cost the Chargers that game in 2004 just like he did last year against the Patriots as well.
Norv didnt make any asinine decisions in that playoff game last week and just let the players play their game and they won just as a sidenote.
so it really doesnt matter WHO the opponent is that Marty coaches against in playoff games.He finds ways to blow it for his teams everytime even if they are a team not all that great like the Jets werent back then,he finds a way to screw it up and blow it for his teams.He did it against the Jets and did it against the Patriots last year as well.
Thats why I said from the beginning,that the next coach the Chargers would get,that they would start winning playoff games.Like that sportswriter said,Marty would have been real conservative and kept on running Tomlinson more than likely,and would have found a way to blow it for them against the Titans.
as i said,I sure am grateful that A.J. smith was smart enough to look at Martys past playoff failures in the past and realise that he cant win games when he gets into the playoffs.That he is ONE AND DONE.
Smith realised that COACHING is what made Marty lose those games against the jets and patriots.NOT the players and that if his Chargers were ever to win a playoff game,it would never come with Marty no matter WHO the opponent was after watching Marty cost them both those games.
