Pain, Pain and a Little More Pain

Lord, Norv Turner’s Discouraged

These are the faces of a broken man. They might also be the final images of Norv as a head coach on the NFL sidelines. Enjoy it while it lasts, Chargers fans (If you guys really exist). But I don't think this was an absolute death blow. Herm Edwards always needs someone to read the little hand on [...]

Vegas must have decided the end of Steelers/Chargers game

I'm not one for conspiracy theories but what transpired at the end of the Chargers-Steelers game had to be a total fix by none other than Vegas itself.With only seconds remaining in the game and Pittsburgh up 11-10, San Diego took over deep in their own territory hoping for one last miracle. ...

The First 11-10 Final in NFL History (Sort Of)

Troy Polamalu nearly ruined it for all of us. The Pittsburgh Steelers led the San Diego Chargers by the utterly improbable score of 11-10, thanks to a safety and three Jeff Reed field goals, including a 32-yarder with 15 seconds left. In the entire history of the National Football League, not one game had ever had [...]

Controversial Ending To Steelers Vs. Chargers Game

This screw-up by the ref cost bettors millions of dollars while Vegas and bookies make a boatload of money on all the bettors who took Pittsburgh to cover over San Diego. The spread was Pittsburgh -4 or -5 depending on where you got your line at.Some say the NFL and the refs are shady and this ...

One for the History Books

You have to give the Chargers credit. Even when they lose -- which is often -- they manage to do something that's never been done.In the 12,837-game history of the National Football League, there had never been a game that ended with a score of 11-10 -- until Sunday.The Bolts and Steelers slugged it out in a defensive battle on a cold, snowy evening in Pittsburgh, and Jeff Reed...
