    I agree that they need LT yet it is without question that he is on the downside of his career. Sadly statistical data for running backs shows that LT is very much running on borrowed time. It is also true that he has been a workhorse for the team for many years and that does not bode well for him either. Groin problems are a very chronic injury and even with off season surgery I believe in another year or two he will be either in the booth, helping to coach, or doing time with MRS LT at the pet care place she owns in Sorrento Valley.

    Don’t get me wrong I like the guy alot and yes we do need LT.

    Picking up Bennett was actually a very shrewd move as he had a few impressive runs yesterday. Furthermore when he was with the Viks he was not bad. No way is he a sub for LT amd to be brutally honest, in retrospect keeping Turner and letting LT go would have been the better football move. However it would not have been an acceptable PR move and AJ had his hands tied. I think Spanos really likes LT’s character as well. I see a major buyout of LTs contract in exchange for a retirement. This will allow the bolts to regain cap money and get a quality RB.

    Hopefully in the next year or two LT will get to split time which will increase his longevity because it would really be nice to see him play in some of these playoff games. Honestly when you look back he has not played in any of the past years worth of playoff games (this and last). He played in the Patsy loss and before that in the Jets loss. Two stinkfests…

    His window is small and getting smaller but he is a hell of a guy to gameplan against so yeah they need him.

    I believe a lot of the reasons for LT’s numbers dropping is due to the fact that we don’t have a work horse like Lorenzo Neal blocking in front for LT. Unfortunately Tolbert and Hester won’t replace a beast like Neal.

    LT is getting older and his numbers have diminished, but we have to take into consideration that the offense has also changed a bit having wide receivers like Chambers and Jackson, along with Gates at Tight End. We’ve come a long way from the days of our top receivers being Eric Parker, Keenan McCardell and Reche Caldwell. We have probably have one of the best, if not the best, offenses in league when healthy. Having a fullback that can block for Sproles and LT would be icing on the cake for the Chargers, but they are definitely doing well without one!

    Last night was, by far, the loudest and most intense Charger game I have ever attended. Manning wasn’t able to hear a thing and the crowd was into every play. A Charger win in Pittsburgh and a Baltimore win at Tennessee means an AFC Championship game at the Q!!!! I am looking forward to that game! 2009 SuperBolt Champions!

    TG/SDR: First off, congrats. I’m not a Chargers fan (as you gents well know), but I was last night.

    Norv Turner AND Ron Rivera outcoached Tony Dungy and the Colts coaching staff. Often overlooked is the fact that Turner is one hell of an offensive minded coach and it showed yesterday. In truth, that game should have wound up 33 – 10. Take away the Chargers turnovers and give the Chargers the fumble that Osgood forced on the kickoff and it would have been total domination by the Bolts.

    Two most dangerous playoff teams in the AFC right now are the Ravens and the Chargers, in that order. And, make no mistake, the Ravens can beat the Titans and the Chargers can beat the Steelers.

    Well, Big Ben can beat the Steelers and the Chargers can help. And, if it comes to that, I think the Chargers can pull one out against Baltimore at home.
