Where to start??? Overall the game was a nightmare. I think it is evident that the defense needs some serious work. The good news is that the bye week came at the perfect time for the Bolts to get healthy and hopefully work hard on their most obvious problems. It doesn't seem right that the charger's talented offense can score 28 points in the last 17 minutes of the game and 0 points the rest of the time. It seems that Norv is playing reverse "Marty Ball." Norv starts every game SLOW....usually 3 and out on first possesion. Then they get behind, they make a heroic comeback that sometimes works but not always. Marty used to start out with a bunch of points in the beginning, but then they would stop scoring and the opposing team would make a comeback that sometimes worked (Not usually). My point is...Charger games are very stressful for true Charger fans. The coaching is a serious problem and Norv is definitely a "YES" man who needs to toughen up and get his team in shape. He said it himself..."too many of the guys are trying to do too much and don't do their job." Well Norv, "THAT IS YOUR FAULT!" It is up to the coaches to make sure the players do their job. I must say that Special Teams has done a fantastic job, offense has its good moments, and defense is horrible. Where is the pass coverage??? Chromartie needs to get a grip and do his job without game-losing penalties. He should watch Jammer and learn what a CB is supposed to do. Also, what is up with the horrible lines. The O-line can't make a hole for the RB and has a hard time protecting the QB. The D-line gets pushed around by the other team. It is embarrassing sometimes. I still love the Chargers, but I hope they can pull it together. These are my thoughts for this game. Check back after the Denver game for more thoughts. GO BOLTS!!!
