gotta give props to the colts for hanging in their till the very end without their best wide receiver marvin harrison out and then Gonzalez getting hurt early on in the game.Wish this game could have been played like in the second week of the year because with those two guys out,the colts are very limited on what they can do on offense against a great team like the patriots.If this game is played early on like in the second week,well things might have turned out differently than they did.well never know but the fact is,without harrison and gonzalez,the colts were limited on what they could do offensively.Like Mike ditka and the other sportscasters were saying during the postgame report,For Manning to not have both marvin harrison and gonzalez at his disposal to throw to to make big plays for him,thats on the same lines as Brady not having both Randy Moss and Walker out of the lineup at the same time.
We all know about what an impact Randy Moss has had on this team but take away BOTH him and walker,and Tom Brady would be limited in what he could do on offense in the same way manning was missing two big playmakers that can turn a game around at anytime.I dont follow the patriots so I like many others arent familiar with their other receiver walker,but ditka and the others were saying he is a huge playmaker for Brady as well who is extremely underrated,that he is very valuable to that team and to Brady.well i been telling all my friends if the Patriots win THIS game,they will go 19-0 and win the whole thing because this would be the toughest test for them.Im standing by that.
Wish again this game could have been played in the second week of the season so that there wouldnt be any doubts on what the outcome would be with the colts missing both harrison and gonzalez.as they say in the NFL,its not WHO you play that determines your chances on winning many times,its WHEN you play them and that proved beneficial to the patriots defenders not having to line up against Harrison and gonzalez.

Now that marty the moron isnt around this time,you may be right. 😆 The chargers wont have to worry about playing Martyball in the playoffs because martyball doesnt work come playoff time. 😄 Plus Norvs mind wont freeze up in the playoffs like martys always did. 😆

Not unless you guys traded LT for Adrian Peterson.
Whose to say Turner is going to be back again next year and that the Chargers will be good?
They have LT and Gates as their only offensive weapons and LT could fall into that gap on where amazing RB's turn into good RB's after a certian amount of years.
On defense, they're good but not great. They miss Phillips and Merriman is only good at attacking the QB.

well you got to remember the chargers are a very patient organization.Hell look how long they stuck with Mike Riley.They were ignorant enough to bring him back the following year after he went only 1-15 the previous year.btw,I'm sure you know who that ONE team is that the chargers beat that year staying away from going winless that year right? 😄 so being that patient,unless the chargers like lost every game the rest of the year,I dont see why they wouldnt bring him back.
They realise that the reason they got off to such a slow start is because the players were trying to make adjustments to the new coaching staff.you cant expect a new coach with an entire new coaching staff to come in the following year and the team not miss a beat,to be in great working order.thats just not logical.They realise that the players are going through an adjustment period getting to the new coaching staff,they didnt expect Norv to go 14-2 and have the best record in the NFL again.Last year just happened to be an exceptional year for them.
Losing BOTH thier offensive coordinater and defensive coordinater has had a huge effect on them.If Norm had arrived and coud have retained those assistants,then I dont see them stumbing off to such a horrible start,Cameron was the straw that sirred the drink for that offense and made it so dangerous.that was a huge loss for them.same with Phillips.They miss phillips and cameron big time.they were the ones that made the offense and defense so great.thats why I say,the owner and general manager realise its going to take at least a year for them to feel comfortable with the new coaching staff so Norv will be back at least for next year for sure.
