Legen.... wait for it..... DAIRY

I love it! Weeks ago I asked, begged and pleaded for people to continue to "Believe in the Bolts." What do we have now? We are only 1 game behind the once dominant Broncos.

The game against the Giants was Legen... wait for it... DAIRY!!! The Rivers Draft day trade seems to have DIRECTLY paid off. Rivers, of course, threw the game tying touchdown pass, Keading kicked the go ahead extra point and Merriman closed the game out by sacking Eli Manning (Chargers drafted Eli, and traded him for Rivers and two future draft picks who were Keading and Merriman).

The bolts had their problems in the game, but I want to talk about what they did great on Sunday.

1. 2 minute drill
2. Pressure on Eli
3. V Jax coming up huge
4. Field position!
5. Forcing 3rd and long
6. Blitzing Schemes (Defensive Play Calling)
7. Aggressive play calling

With this there is plenty of room for improvement. For instance, forcing 3rd and long was something we did well. Some thing the Bolts didn't do well was, stop that 3rd and long!

All of us TRUE fans never stopped Believing in the Bolts! And for those of you who did stop believing, WELCOME BACK!

Rivers Vs. Manning

This will be the first time Rivers and Manning face off. Last time, Manning faced the Chargers Brees was behind center and the Bolts shoved it in Eli's face.

To say the least, Eli is not spoken highly of or very welcome in SD. But still, Rivers has to be envious of at least one thing that Eli has. And that thing is a Super Bowl Championship ring.

As a Charger fan, I am too! But as a Charger fan I believe we will still get our first ring under Rivers. During the season of Mannings Super bowl, the Giants started off terribly, starting 0-2, before running off 6 consecutive wins.

This is why as a Charger fan, I am not overly concerned about the position we are in at the current moment. Sitting at 4-3 is not where the Chargers want to be but, in no way can you write us off!

I'm not even calling this a make or break game. Sure, a win will tell us we can hang with tough teams. A win will inch us closer to the Broncos. But if we go 2-1 in our next 3 I think we will make the playoffs! Not looking down the barrel of the New England or Indy or New Orleans gun for the rest of the regular season is promising.

How do the bolts get there... Let's start sunday by beating the Giants through the air on their home turf. Keep Rivers upright, and keep his Super Bowl Ring hopes well alive!

9th Inning Tease

Local Celebrity at the Padres game last night. And that is all the highlights...a fan in the crowd, Phillip Rivers. GO BOLTS!

Jakkkkkkkkkkkke did have 12 K's. D-backs commit 4 errors and the Padres capitalize by scoring 0! What a tease though...bases loaded in the 9th, 0 outs and the Pads get 1 run on a double play...

They won last night, if they won tonight, that would make it two in a row. If they win tomorrow it would have been 3 in a row. It's called a winning streak, it has been done before...
