Charger fans, here we go again. Yet another slow start to the season. But this time is different. The Broncos are starting to run away with our AFC West title, and it almost feels like there is nothing we can do about it. Apparently we aren’t who we thought we were.

How fitting was it, that the day after Monday night loss, all the San Diego freeways were all jammed up because of a jumper that threatened to end it all? Ironic huh? For those of us who bleed blue and gold, it’s how we felt. Luckily for all, the lady didn’t jump. Luckily for us, she wasn’t wearing Charger gear. Insensitive? I think not! That woman made thousands of us around town late to work.

We need a miracle folks. No way in the world is Denver choking like last year. Anyone holding their breath for that, is crazy. With a capital CRAZY. Let’s put it on the table, Broncos are getting better by the week and overachieving. Chargers are struggling week in week out and underachieving. That’s just how it is, and it just flat out sucks.

Offensive line, step it up. Like kickers, you have 1 job to do: BLOCK! Let’s not turn Philip into the next David Carr. Shawne Merriman, it would be awesome if you’d show up. We have backed you after the whole steroids thing. We have backed you after you decided to sit out last year. We backed you after that little incident with that filthy little tramp. We’re waiting to see that guy we have all come to know and love, Lights Out! Antonio Cromartie, what happened to Crimetime? The guy who had 10 INTs? You can’t say they aren’t throwing the ball your way, because these quarterbacks are sure as hell throwingit your way. Cancel your Twitter account and start taking notes from the best corner that nobody give props to: Jammer. Actually the note taking can also apply to Weddle, Gregory, and anyone else in the secondary. Jammer can cover and he is physical. What we really need is an intimidator out there. Nobody is scared of going over the middle against us…on the ground OR the air. Remember what it was like when we used to have #37 out there? We missed out shot at John Lynch. Now we missed out on Brian Dawkins. Where did they both end up? Don’t even answer that. And don’t get me wrong, I love everyone on our team, that’s mostly the disappointment talking.

Everyone has to take responsibility for their part in this fiasco, from top to bottom: Ownership, who’s team is this? Management, AJ check the go at the door. You can’t live off the Manning/Rivers deal forever. Coaches and Players. The only ones doing their jobs are the Chargers Girls and the Fans. The Chargers are much better than this. The only thing we have accomplished to this point is some media members picked us to win it all. Paper Champs, that’s it. 

Two weeks ago when Denver faced it first real test in the Patriots, the lasting image in my head was watching their coach celebrating and pumping his fist. It’s been said many many times how a team is a reflection of it’s coach. For anyone who has played team sports, they know it’s true. The Broncos rookie head coach shows fire. Norv? Not so much. Actually, not at all. This seems to be the end of the road for the man with the leather face. We’ve all given him a fair shot, yet he continues to let us down. EVERYTIME we give him the benefit of the doubt, he finds a way to pull a Plaxico.

A wise man once said “One play at a time. One play at a time!”. You know where this is going. The fat lady isn’t singing just yet. But you know she wants to start warming up. So to our beloved Bolts: Please, pretty please, with a F-ing cherry on top, handle your business on the field, and i will buy that heffer who is trying to warm up, a fresh box a twinkies to fend her off. The season is NOT over, those of us are still keeping the faith know it can, and will be done. Let’s just get into the dance. When we’re in, we’ll take someone else’s date home.

Note to Norv: It’s well past time that you start coaching to WIN, and stop coaching NOT TO LOSE.

Let’s go Chargers…it’s not too late.
