Sd, you know the rule, it applies to sports, stocks, women and anything where there is a wager or a potential downside. Listen to me, then do the opposite. I’m proud of you for remembering the rule.
The chargers are missing one thing, Marty and crew. 12 teams enter the playoffs, one wins the Superbowl. The guy brings his teams to playoffs more often than not and the Browns, Cheifs and Chargers all fell part after he left, his players and some bad luck lost the game last year and now we find out the the Patriots probably cheated. So now we have Norv, great, great coordinator, weak head coach and he has no control over Rivers who was melting down and needs to be coached.
Now let’s not throw in the towel on the season, the Patriots are just better than everyone else, Chicago is one of the best in the NFC, a top 5 in the power polls, has a wicked defense and the Chargers beat them. It took a little luck and a little time but they beat them. The Packers are on fire, hell the browns could probably take the Chargers but neither has the talent of the Chargers, this is what saddens me about watching Norv, no matter how good the steak is, you still need a good chef. Norv was an afterthought in a disaster engineered by A.J. Smith, they need to start scouting a head coach for next year. The best coach without a job is Bill Cowher and as a close personal friend and former understudy of Marty’s, he probably won’t even take A.J.’s phone calls. Our only hope is that Crennel turns around the Browns this season so they don’t offer Cowher the job in Cleveland (where he played and was an assistant coach of marty’s)and S.D. can beg him to come here. What is nuts is that the Chargers will probably miss the playoffs and Norv will keep his job but Marty goes 14-2 and is fired, if the Pack beats the Chargers next week we would be lucky to have a second round playoff loss.
If the patsies roll up the colts on Nov 4th, I’ll crown them. Did you see the interview of Goodell during halftime, if the league finds out belichick was intercepting the opposing teams headset transmissions, he will be lucky if Roger only bans him for life and doesn’t have him beheaded during the hearing. The only coaching job he will see is Vick and Pacmans prison team. Collinsworth, the best analyst in the business had the line of the night “If the commish has to see Bill in his office again it will be to say goodbye.”
