They have a rematch with the pathetic Chiefs, and have Miami on the schedule.
They are far better than Kansas City and will retain dignity by escaping the AFC West cellar for the first time in six years.
I wouldn't count on it, but it will be a battle for who sucks the most.
Yeah but it shouldn't have even got to that point. And people act like stopping the Broncos deep in the Red Zone is an easy thing. It's hard to come back from that sort of a situation. To just say, "Oh well, if the Chargers were a GOOD team, they would have stopped them!" is a ludicrous argument. After you get F-ed like that, it's a little hard to stand up straight and continue your job. The fact that the OTHER refs didn't come together and just say, "Look, Ed, fact is you messed up that call, you NEED to fix this" just shows more incompetence amongst the group. I can't imagine that the other refs agreed with the ruling at the time.
And as for you Dolt fans, you guys slaughtered us last year in both games. Where was that team on Sunday? Maybe if you had some defense you wouldn't need calls from the refs to go your way.
You actually had THREE plays to stop the Broncos after the blown call by Ed H. If your team can't stand up straight and play hard after a blown call, they are just pussies and shouldn't be on the field in the first place. What are they getting paid all that money for anyways???? The blown call and the $$$ should have motivated their tired (where's the oxygen?) asses, eh?
As for the other refs, surely you've heard or read (or had someone read to you), that it was a rule in the books, and COULD NOT be overturned, even if the other refs threatened Ed, and said they weren't taking him out to dinner at Denny's that night. I'm sure we'll see the rule change before next year.
BESIDES, if SD would have scored 2 TD's instead of 2 FG's on your last two trips into Denver's RED ZONE, all this would be moot now as well, wouldn't it? If wishes were horses, then beggars would ride.
P.S. - SD
DID NOT cause that fumble, a slick football that slipped out of Jay's hand caused that........it was even ruled a team fumble.
BTW, is this call worse than the blown FG call last year in the Browns/Ravens game, that the Ravens won, then lost?
