    Thankfully the Steelers are even worse than us this year.

    Russell Wilson, you are ridiculous!

    Is there a hotter team in the NFL right now? Maybe the Patriots?

    Maybe, but in retrospect, the teams they have beaten have been less than stellar. Tonights result was very good, albeit against a banged up Ravens team. They certainly haven't given anyone a 58-0 beat down....although ~i will happily accept them gradually improving in time for the playoffs.

    I wonder if Russell Wilson can overtake RGIII for OROY? When are the votes cast, a week or two before the season ends?

    Kansas City have no first downs, have only run 15 plays, for 11 total yards (against 40 penalty yards!) at the half.

    Yet they're only a score down. Well done Raiders :pac:

    it worries me that 3 broncos wins have come against these two teams (not forgetting 2 more against the Chargers). The Chiefs now have 7 possesions in the game, and 6 x 3 & outs (1 turnover)- I've never seen anything like that before.

    Seabass strikes over from 57 and it probably would have had the distance to make 67.

    Cardinals have td drives of 3 and 20 yards and are leading 21-7 (3rd td was an int return)

    Detroit have been such a disappointment this year. Who would've thought they'd be out of the playoff race with only 4 wins?

    I'd imagine luck is probably ahead of both of them, but Wilson is doing his bit tonight.

    ...
    Dallas helped by some awful Steeler tackling on this drive. Tomlin won't be happy.

    Yip, they've been a bit embarrassing of late. Probably just as well to ensure a clear out at season's end.

    Accentually not sure you are being genuine, seem know decent amount
    After 2004 Chargers where dominant. Chargers lost a lot of players by just having too many good players and not being able to pay them all and injuries have been a factor, such a Merriman and other 1st round picks being tortured with injuries.
    Went 14-2 and with problems behind scenes Schottenheimer was fired and Norv came in. He done pretty well but we never performed in the playoffs either. Losing to the Jets under Norv was a massive blow.

    Also very good in early 90s, went to our only Super Bowl.

    Also congrats to Gates on getting receiving TD record for Chargers.

    ....personally I thought they shouldn't have fired Marty Schottenheimer. He led them to a 14-2 record, but they were upset in the 1st round of the playoffs that year (maybe 2007?) Schottenheimer was fired and Norv Turner came in, continued to do well with Schottenheimer's team, but they became progresively worse during his tenure. A San Diego fan may be able to give more insight though.

    In retrospect, I wonder what would have happened if they held onto Drew Brees - he was traded after an arm injury, and they had Rivers come in for him. Rivers has been good, no doubt, but Drew Brees has been other worldly during that time.

    Janikowski may be single-handedly winning someones Fantasy playoff for them today - 5 fieldgoals, including 50 and 57 yarders.
