Originally posted by Panama View PostNo, we should be rooting for Miami and against NE, because we are absolutely competing for the top seed. What's with all this defeatist bullshit. The Broncos won't have a tie-breaker on us when we beat them in San Diego, or when we finish with the better record. I'm not prepared to hand them the division crown yet. If the Rams can blow them out, they can lose other games, and we are certainly capable of beating every team on our schedule. Yes, whether we actually do so is another matter entirely, but let's play the games instead of just handing it to them.
But, if somebody wants to crown em, crown em. And, by "crown em," I mean nut on their domes.
Go San Diego Chargers!

Tomorrow's game is s MUST WIN. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. The Ravens and, especially, the farking Patriots, are going to kick our butts. That means we HAVE to beat KC (in KC), Denver, and SF (in San Francisco). Sure, no problem!
I think we have a MUCH better chance of finishing 6-10 then winning the Division. And right now, we're just about losing every tie-breaker for Wild Card (Miami, KC, Denver, all losses).

Originally posted by Panama View PostI guess all those injuries that forced us to play scrubs mean nothing to you. Because our scrubs were able to win games against awful teams you assume they can do so against playoff-caliber teams? That's a bit unrealistic. I wish we were undefeated, but I would have to have my head examined if I thought the Chargers haven't done anything yet.

Originally posted by QSmokey View PostWith out schedule, we'll be lucky to finish 7-9, no less win the division. Jesus! I know that Hope Springs Eternal for you, but, man...can't you be AT LEAST a little objective? Granted, this is a classic case of "Look whose talking!" So I suppose you're purpose here is to balance out my negativity. Congratulations. You've earned your keep.

You keep confusing my insistence that we can win these games for declarations that we will win them. I will claim no such thing. I don't know which games we will or won't win, because I don't have a crystal ball. But I know we are capable of winning every game remaining on our schedule. Will we? Probably not, but doesn't mean we can't. And if acknowledging that we are talented enough that we can beat other good teams and acknowledging that other teams have flaws too makes me a Pollyanna, then I am guilty as charged.
If I recall, last year you didn't think we could win out either. But I insisted there was no reason why we couldn't. You called me a wishful thinker then, too, and yet we did win out. There's absolutely no reason we can't do it again if things break the right way for us. I feel sorry for you if you can't see the possibilities.Adipose

Originally posted by QSmokey View PostDon't feel sorry for me...now. You should have felt sorry for me when I allowed myself to care (newsflash: I still care too much) and this silly game, this silly team, drove me to distraction week in and week out. You can only have your heart ripped out - with a wooden spoon - so many times before you start to expect the worst, at every turn. I won't even allow myself to entertain the possibility that things could actually go our way. It's too disheartening when then don't. The acid and negativity in my posts is really directed at my extreme disappointment of allowing myself (key words) to be so affected by the outcome of something so meaningless.For Stinky-Jon-Wizzleteats....
