    Nope. We were already at that level long before Norv.

    Things are looking good now though. I believe in McCoy and Rivers.

      Or accept the Pagano.
      Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
      Let’s win one for Mack.

        I have been a Charger fan since Sid Gillman was the coach. I know the history. We choked some games away, but we never played so poorly so often with talented players than we did under Norv. On his way out, Norv talked about how little talent our team had and how far they were from the playoffs. It took zero years. We have a history, but Norv took things to a new level.

          That's because Norv is a born loser.

            I wasn't born yet during the Gillman days. It's true that Norv was lame, and went out even lamer. But our ability to tank games that we should have won or were winning goes back way before Norv.

            During an 80s game, we made a zillion sacks on the other team and still managed to lose. The Raiders beat Air Coryell on Monday Night when we were up by 24 in the 4th quarter. Who can forget our post season tank jobs during Air Coryell and Marty Ball? During Brees's last year, we were good enough to whoop the undefeated Colts, but we shit ourselves multiple times against less talented teams. Plus, we must lead the world in most games lost on a blocked field goal that was returned for a touchdown. And none of those were during the Norv era.

But I remember a game during the 80s in which we had a zillion sacks on the other team and still managed to lose. I remember the Raiders beating Air Coryell on Monday Night when we were up by 24 in the 4th quarter. I remember us fucking tanking in the post season against the Oilers, the Jets, and the Cheatriots. I remember, during Brees's last year, us whooping the undefeated Colts, and then shitting ourselves the next week. We must lead the world in most games lost on a blocked field goal that was returned for a touchdown.
              Dude! I remember that shit, too. We just won a game on the road as underdogs. Let's enjoy it.

                Trust me, I don't have many good Charger memories from the preCoryell era. Maybe we're cursed. I like this year's team though.
