Go back and read the game day thread and see how many regulars here gave up early and complained about each Chargers mistake and performance of the lines, ETC etc.
Since you didn't get it, my point was- in the past the Chargers DON'T win these kinds of games when they shoot themselves in the foot and all the calls go against them. I wasn't selecting a single questionable penalty call as the only reason they won, and of course I saw all the non-calls you and others complain about- and those exactly PROVE MY POINT. In the past the team loses a game like this and they DON'T get that questionable penalty on the road on National TV to give them a chance to pull it out. I call that lucky, but you can call it a "make up penalty" for the helmet hit on Rivers or karma or whatever you want if that makes you feel better. To further raise the stakes of improbability of pulling it off- the Chefs inexplicably bust the pass coverage on MW letting Rivers lob an easy completion in there to win it. On a 2 point conversion no less. When was the last time THAT happened for the Chargers to seal a big national TV game?
Chargers fans have complained forever about getting hosed by officials, the years long injury bug epidemic, and bad luck ruining the team's chances of success. Now with the big Pitt win and this win, the 1st 2 items above are still working against them, but it seems like maybe the luck part has finally turned after all these years. Luck is a good thing, celebrate it instead of refusing to accept it helped the team win the game.
