    That was probably LT's game.

    Why am I happy? We'll probably improve. His career is over, finished. We need a respectable running back to take some pressure off Rivers. I'm excited, I think our window is just opening. Our D is good, Rivers' is entering his prime, Jackson is too. Floyd is entering as well, while Gates is in the middle of it. The only thing we're missing? A running game. Sproles isn't capable of running it every down and LT is over the hill. Please, get a RB this year capable of being an every down back and let Rivers' work it.

    Westbrook may be done next year as well. Sad how quickly running backs fall off.

    Thoughts on Kaeding? He missed 3 field goals, and if I remember correctly, he has a history of choking in the postseason. Are you guys going to get a new kicker? He doesn't seem like someone who can handle pressure.

    Also, what's going to happen to Merriman? Is he coming back?

    They'll probably franchise Merriman, which I'm fine with. He didn't bring the pressure on teh QB this year, but he impacted our defense immensely. Having his presence there was awesome this year.

    I'll miss LT, but the simple fact is we need a RB to get any further. We can't have Rivers win for us every week. We need someone to take the pressure off him.

    Kaeding missed 3 field goals, he could have gone 2 for 3 and the Chargers still would have been fine. This guy couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat. He's usually automatic and those field goals would have been the difference, give much credit to the jets, their D is very impressive. Hopefully its a good close game next week against the Colts

    Kaeding. 3 missed FG's. Make 1, chance in OT. Make 2, Win the game. Make 3, ice the game. Its his fault. Out of the 3, two were very makeABLE.

    How bout you blame the anemic offense instead of the kicker. Chargers have the worst Rushing attack in the NFL....and dont get me wrong i wanted them to win, cause i hate the fucking Jets.....

    These NFL playoffs have sucked

    Not true.

    Indy had a worse rushing attack than us. :]

    And despite how bad our offense looked yesterday, one of those FG's gives us a shot in OT, and the other makeable one gives u the W.

    For a kicker who is as money as Kaeding is, his playoff failures have been fucking horrible.
