Ok time for my first Sports related posting. I'm from SD and when I started watching football in 7th Grade I followed Roger Craig and the 49ers, but soon fell in love with the Bolts despite the fact that they were a poor football team. They had a Power Back named Marion Butts who while he ran for 4 or 5 1,000 yard seasons had a pretty short career. I remember in 94' the Chargers go to thier first SuperBowl only to get killed by the 49ers...tough week.
Fast forward to this year.. Big expectations in the Pre-Season. Then a Horrible start of the season and a Bad middle. 4-8 Chargers holding onto the last rung of Playoff Hope. Broncos loose the next 3, Chargers win the next 3. Last game of the Season beat the Broncos and your in. Chargers play the Best Game of thier Season 50+ points on the board.
Now a tremendous win over the Colts. LT can only go for a short time, Darren Sproles all 5'7 of him plays HUGE. Despite a couple of turnovers, one on the Two. Chargers are able to tie the game with a short field Goal. Win the toss and drive down and win with a 20 yard Sproles TD Run.
Defense played Huge, playing games with Manning pre snap by showing multiple fronts. Most games are played from snap to whistle. This one was played from when you came up to the Ball to the Whistle. INTENSE!
Best Punter in the League has a HUGE, HUGE game as well. Field Position was gigantic.
Getting to the Super Bowl and winning it is a total possibility. None of the teams in the Playoffs scare me or look unbeatable to how the Chargers are Playing now. It's gonna be a fight, and they might not make it, but it can totally happen.
Go Bolts!
