    TG and Allan I very much agree with you guys.

    As a lifelong Charger fan I must say this was the most exciting game since the Miami game back in… sheesh dare I say over 25 years ago?

    Absolutely this was the biggest win since the Steeler game for the conference championship. Being a grizzled fan who flew to Miami in 92 to sit in a freeking downpour to watch the bolts lose 31-3 …. who then flew back to Miami to watch them get dumped by the niners in the super bowl… this was very much one of the sweetest games in a very long time.

    Allan I think Kiffin is a pretty damn good coach. I hope that Al gives him a chance. You guys have some good parts… Morrison is great…your QB is good and he needs to season. I wouldn’t give up on Porter. Two good drafts and you guys can be really strong. Like you said, Al needs to get a strong gm in there and build em up.

    Getting back to the game…it was really an exciting game ya know? So many big plays. Every drive was really important, it was like the entire game was really on edge and it went fast as opposed to the Tenessee game which I went to and was like watching paint dry.

    SDR: If I have to choose Kiffin’s, I’ll take Monte, please. I agree with you (mostly), but it has been a long, slow death since Gruden left. I personally feel like the Raiders (read Al Davis) lost their way after the Marcus Allen debacle. That really showed not only a lack of class (I know, surprising for the Raiders to use that word), but a real lack of vision.

    I was in high school in ’82 when that SD – Miami game took place, and I can still picture Kellen Winslow being carried off the field following. We won the CCS (NorCal version of the CIF) the following year, and our coach used that game to drive home the point about persistence and triumphing over adversity. Probably the greatest pro game ever, in my opinion.

    The best part of this is seeing Norv Turner come out on top. It might sound strange, especially from a Raiders fan, but this guy has endured so many cracks, and put-downs, and now this. All of that is pretty much swept aside following these last two games. Imagine if the Chargers beat NE! I might even start feeding a little blue and gold into my wardrobe.

    Kidding.
