The Vatican Hitsquad Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 What are you smoking? The Chargers are talented from top to bottom with Pro Bowlers. Sure LT is the MVP of the league but that doesn't mean they are a one pony show. The difference maker in this game was coaching. Belicheck kept his team close and gave them a chance to win, Marty kept his team from winning as he always seems to do come playoff time. Seriously, what does Marty bring to the table at this stage in his career? He's won a lot of regular season games but has tanked in the playoffs with some good teams. He's proven time and time again he doesn't have what it takes during the playoffs and that can't be disputed. It's time for the Chargers to go in a different direction and reach their potential. I guess coaching is the reason why Parker missed blocks, dropped passes and fumbled punts. Coaching should also be to blame for Drayton Florence commiting a persoanl foul to move the ball 15 yards closer for the FG. Coaching also is to blame for McCree not knocking the ball down on 4th, and instead not only fumbling it away but also moving the ball 15 yards for the Pats. As I have stated on a very similar thread, only sheep really believe that Shott doesn't have wha tit takes. Charger fans are nuts and or ungrateful if they are saying that today. Here is what I stated in the other thread: Here are some facts about Schottenheimer, his playoff runs and his time in SD: He has lost nine playoff games by five points or less He has lsot two in overtime One year he is killed by Elway in the greatest drive in playoff history (98 yrds, "the drive" as it's known) A year later in the AFC Championship, Earnest Byner is stripped on the 2 yrd line in the go -ahead TD run with 1 minute left in the game. 2 years ago he's criticized for handing off to LT 3 straight plays in OT before a shanked FG from the 22 led to a playoff loss to Jets. This year, he is criticized for not handing off to LT more before a shanked FG from the 35 led to a playoff loss to the Pats. 5 years before Shott took over the Chargers in 2002: 23-57 including worst record in franchise history 1-15 5 years after Shott took over the Chargers in 2002: 47-33, including best record in franchise history 14-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
