It was a very nice rebound from a mistake riddled game last week. Need him to carry us against Pitt. Thats gonna be tough.

I'm not as positive as I want to be about this game.

But it seems in all 11 games so far this season there has been a lot Ive not been happy about and this team found a way to get 8 wins.

Maybe I'm just used to the Chargers disappointing me. Maybe I shouldn't be.

Go Bolts!

I think most of long term fans have had many more disappointments rooting for our Bolts. This team is very resilient, tough, talented, and they fight for each game.

It was a bad team we beat today. Im very happy we won. But i want to see us beat a team with a good record. I want to beat a good team. This game will be telling. Beating Seattle was a great win. I want more of that.

Prime time game on the east coast against a good team...historically this is not something this franchise pulls off.

The Cincy and Baltimore games are worlds more important to help lock up a WC. We're not winning the division and I don't want to go into Denver on the final week of the season needing a win against a suddenly confident Broncos team just to make the playoffs.

The good news is that Mike Williams seems like he could be getting hot at right time and Ek will do an admirable job filling in, i just don't think he is built to shoulder a big load. Hate to see him get injured too. We might have to lean on Rivers more which isn't necessarily a good thing. Wish we could have some health at the right time. Imagine heading into the playoffs with a healthy Gordon and Henry.

In the last, so many years, this team lost to bad teams all the time.

Norv and McCoy were constantly losing to bad teams

This is Seattle Part Deux to me. Go in, be efficient, no turnovers and make them keep up. We will give their D fits imo. Just contain conner and we can hang.

True. But this team struggles to beat good teams. So the fact we are winning games we used to lose is great and all....but ive raised the bar to actually beating good teams now.

We need to use Mike Williams full time now. He is ready to take off.

They do struggle against good teams. But good teams struggle against good teams.

The difference so far is that they are beating the bad teams.
