Pretty good.

No. Just no. Let me stay wrapped in my invincible armor of negativity. If you have no hopes, they can't be dashed.

I strongly disagree that fumble recoveries are random. Aggressive mentality, quick and fast players, less fatigue players will have more chance to recover the ball. It's about awareness and aggressiveness. I see it all the time on pro and college and even high school games where the more aggressive, stronger guys who wants it more wrested the ball away from the weaker, less aggressive guys.

I read part of the article... but what I read cemented my opinion on McTurtle.. that guy has to go if he doesnt change. We always criticized Norval for not adjusting. I see the same on McTurtle, the guy just doesnt adjust to general circumstances. He is worst than Marty I see way more stubornnes on him.

What is that on that page?

HBO and Tony Hawk saying Convadium is not a real thing and to vote No on C?

It seems to me that Benjamin's fumble against NO was completely fear driven. He was so afraid to get hit and fumble, that he tried to dive to the ground and fumbled anyway. I'm pretty sure that Kaser's botched snap was fear driven, too.

It does look like that, lol. The coaches have to do a much better job mentally prepare the team.

[Mister Hoarse]

The HC makes his game management decisions out of fear.
How is he gonna get his players to stay aggresssive?
He HAS to go.

To those who don't want to read it all...let me sum up the article for ya:

Up to this point, the Chargers have led or been in reach of a victory for every single game they have played...BUT...while they APPEAR to be an upper tier team...they need to learn to stay out of their own way. The next two games will further illustrate if they really are what they appear to be. End of paragraph.

Another guy not getting the memo about how devoid of talent we are.

Yeah, it looked like Tony Hawk but I'm not clicking on that link. Why would he be against C?

I think it was the Bill Simmons opinion rant.
