What a game Monday night! As a huge Chargers fan living on the east coast – just north of Baltimore, MD – it is a little hard for me to get to watch many Chargers games. Nevertheless, Monday night’s game was a great one… almost. The offense was remarkable – Rivers was on track, three TD passes only one INT. LT, what can we say – bum toe… he’ll be back once that toe is 100% again, just look at McFadden, he wasn’t quite as effective as he could have been either.

I still have beef with the defense, however. My man Antonio Cromartie… where do we start? How about with the two INTs he had Monday night? That is definitely a good start, but, don’t forget about the one IN he “should’ve” had earlier in the game; not to mention the other two he should’ve had against the Broncos and Panthers. Overall, he wasn’t smoked like he was against the Broncos.

Then there are the penalties! I mean c’mon, three consecutive defensive penalties? On a 2-pt conversion attempt?! 1st – Favre pass incomplete… defensive pass interference, #57 Matt Wilhelm; 2nd – Favre pass incomplete… but wait, defensive pass interference, AGAIN, #32 Eric Weddle; 3rd – defensive offside, #95 Shaun Phillips. Ya can’t make this stuff up! There is no way any of these penalties should have been committed – defense wins championships, but not like that, that’s why it’s only a 99% win.

  1. [...] Finally, Antonio Cromartie – what can I say, he was chosen the AFC defensive player of the week for week 3.  Great job, but there was room for improvement – see 99%. [...]
