Found September 23, 2008 on InGameNow:
Last night, the San Diego Charger's LaDanian Tomlinson finally made his fantasy owners happy, getting into the end zone twice. He was 0-fer in the previous two weeks. In looking at LT's stats this year, I say he is a total bust as the overall #1 pick. week 1: 10 fantasy points (97 yards rushing, 15 yards receiving) week 2: 3 fantasy points (26 yards rushing, 14 yards receiving) week 3: 20 points (67 yards rushing, 20 yards receiving, 2 rushing td's) DUMP LT NOW!!!!!!!! (to read why, hit the link below)

  • So glad I had the #2 pick and have AP!!!!!!!!!!!
  • I will trade my first pick Tom Brady for LT
  • OUCH
  • I would trade my three picks where I got Osi, Merriman, and Colston for LT.

    Somebody beat that!
  • I really hope you didn't bet too much this season.....that is almost unbeleaveable
  • LT 2007 season:

    week 1: 13 fantasy points (25 rushing yards, 51 receiving yards, 1 TD)
    week 2: 5 fantasy points (43 rushing yards, 15 receiving yards, 0 TD)
    week 3: 15 fantasy points (62 rushing yards, 33 receiving yards 1 TD)

    Thats a total of 33 points, the exact amount he has now. LT ended up leading the NFL in rushing yards and rushing tds. If you want to trade him for Julius Jones, or Matt Forte, or Michael Turner, its your call, but the end result wont be pretty.

The Trouble With Tribble

Pro Football Talk is reporting that the San Diego Chargers are signing journeyman DT Ian Scott , and they will in turn be releasing rookie cornerback DeJuan Tribble.

Injured Ankle Should Not Sideline Favre for Sunday

Despite rolling his left ankle during Monday night's 48-29 setback to the Chargers, it appears that QB Brett Favre will play Sunday vs the Cards at home.? "Brett usually plays," coach Eric Mangini said Tuesday, "and I would anticipate the same."? Reports say that Favre was limping after the injury and in the locker room.? He has started an NFL record 256 straight...

NFL Featured Matchup: New York Jets at San Diego Chargers

Brett Favre makes his first Monday night appearance as a Jet tonight. However, Vegas doesn't have much faith in his magic on Monday night; the Jets are an 8.5 point underdog on the road against the San Diego Chargers. Despite all of the big names on the San Diego roster, the Chargers are simply not a great football team right now. In two games this season the Chargers have...

Jets-Chargers Aftermath

As predicted here, the Chargers blew out the NY Bretts last night on MNF. Here are my takeaways of what we learned from the game.> The bloom is coming off the Favre rose pretty quickly, really. San Diego had three picks last night (two of them from the Sainted One), and could have had a couple more. The thing about Favre's picks is that they really don't all come from...

Chargers Save Their Season

The Chargers needed a win and got it. The Jets needed a win but forgot to bring the defense with them from New York. The San Diego Chargers defeated the New York Jets 48 to 29 on Monday night and avoided a 0-3 start. Since 1990, only three teams have made the playoffs after beginning the season 0-3, the Chargers being one of them. LaDainian Tomlinson, hobbled by a toe injury,...

Monday Night Betting Reaction

Well, the Chargers pick worked out like a charm. I knew that they would pull through for the win and that lots of points would be scored, but I expected a bit more from the Jets and thought they could keep it a closer game. I just wanted to post my updated record [...]

Monday Night Football: Jets/Chargers Prediction & Pick Against the Spread

Monday Night Football Week Three Live-Blog: 2nd Half

The Chargers look to be in control of this one, but again...this is the Chargers. They'll figure out a way to blow the lead. It's their ball to start the half though and they'll start the quarter from their own 20.People like Tony at ESPN are so out of touch with fans. He always says "people want to hear about Favre" but the 'people' he refers to are...

My Monday Night Football Pick (Chargers/Jets)

I'm feeling good about tonight, but I still don't like the Chargers giving up 8. The Chargers should win this one, but I think it'll be too tight to give up 8 points. I say it's a back-and-forth game until the Jets run out of gas in the 4th and Rivers leads San Diego to [...]

No Monday night magic for Favre as Chargers pick up first win

It was only the first quarter and things already looked incredibly bad for the San Diego Chargers. After forcing the Jets to punt on the first possession of the game, Chargers' QB Philip Rivers lined up in the shotgun formation on a 3rd and 5 from San Diego's 20-yard line. Then he handled the snap poorly, rushed a pass and threw a strike to Jets' DB David Barrett, who...

CHARGERS .....NEED I SAY MORE....

Lets just get one thing straight...they can put up points. They are slow starters, especially with there main crew injured, or out. ONE WORD give it to "SPROLES" with LT injured, let Sproles work it until LT is full speed. The Chargers have enough heart, to do it this year, WIth or without their Superstars...Merriman, Gates, LT, Willams, and who ever else gets hurt. They...

Jets versus Chargers - Monday Night Showdown

When the 2008 season started, no one expected the San Diego Chargers to be sitting winless with the chance of starting the season 0 - 3 going into Week 4. The Chargers have lost two close games to start the season, including one that involved a disputed call that may have chanced the course of their last game. Things are not easier for the New York Jets who are sitting on a 1 - 1...
