As a non SD resident I am somewhat removed from the euphoria of being an SD fan. I like the Chargers since LA has no team, and I certainly won’t back the Raiders, and I must admit I was actually kind of pulling for Indy.

LT hurt, along with Castillo, later Rivers, and I think one other, Turner making an ass out of himself the entire first half, a load of penalties on both sides, Manning’s 3 picks, and a worthless Harrison – all amounted to one thing:

IMO this win was a gift to the Chargers.

Yes they played well given the cirucmstances, but Manning gave it away with 3 picks and even with those, the Chargers were one great return by a 5′ 6″ 2nd string RB away from a loss.

I hate to say it, but I doubt they will be so lucky against the Pats. But I’d love to see it.
