    Plus, extra points from the 35 is no longer an automatic, which is what the NFL wanted. Was not happy he missed it and it could have come back to haunt us, but we shouldn't have been in position to have that extra point affect us anyway, we should've beaten these guys like a drum.

      Point taken, but still a special teams blunder.

        Griff Whalen is absolutely horrific..no clue how he is still on the team.

        He is not the best athlete and with a degree from Stanford, one would think he would hang his hat on the mental part of the game and his football IQ. He has made so many bonehead mistakes, drops and takes a knee every time the opponent kicks off into the end zone.

        I don't get what the coaches see in this turd.

          I am fine with taking a knee every time. When we try and run it back, we don't make it to the 25.

            If they signed Whalen specifically to field kicks in the end zone and down it I'd be fine with it. Where I have a problem is when he runs with the ball.

              The best return man in San Diego is on the Aztecs, Rashaad Penny.

                Agreed, our special teams are awful, easily the worst in the league. I think we have had at least one major screw up in every single game that has affected the game in some way.

                  fair enough but he has been pathetic at WR as well.

                      Down them in the end zone and stay away from injuries. Just my Duh worth.
                      Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
