Chargers vs. Raiders - Game 11

The Charger beat the Raiders at home, 21-14. This was another close game.


The Chargers lucked out with a 4th down conversion in the 4th quarter. Vincent Jackson made the completion, but he celebrated too soon, spinning the ball forward to the ground before he had been ruled down and the Raiders jumped on the ball. After much deliberation, it was ruled a illegal forward pass and after 5 yard penalty it was still the Chargers ball.


With the Chargers retaining the ball, LT threw his second TD pass of the year to tie the game at 14 and then ran for another TD to take the lead.

Chargers vs. Broncos - Game 10

The Chargers beat the Broncos in Denver on Sunday Night Football, 35-27. The Chargers became the first team in NFL history to come back from 17 or more points in consecutive games.


LaDainian Tomlinson scored 4 touchdowns and the 3rd was his 100th touchdown. He reached 100 touchdowns faster than any player in NFL history. He passed Jim Brown and Emmitt Smith who were tied for the fastest.


Philiip Rivers threw a touchdown to Vincent Jackson to take the lead with 6:45 left in the game. Rivers overcame two interceptions to throw 2 touchdowns and 222 yards in the game.


Igor Olshansky was ejected from the game for punching Denver Center, Tom Nalen, in the head after Nalen dove at his knees on a spike play on the last drive.

Chargers vs. Bengals - Game 9

The Chargers beat the Bengals in a thrilling game on the road, 49-41. I almost had a heart attack watching this game as the Chargers scored 42 points in the second half to come back from a 21 point deficit.


LT ran for 4 touchdowns, 104 yards on the ground and 54 yards in the air. He showed his power as he ran for a TD with a defender yanking on his facemask.


Philip Rivers had a big day passing, he was 24/36 with 338 yards and 3 touchdowns. His shovel pass at the goal line to Brandon Manumaleuna to take the lead for good was inspired. This game was an old-fashioned AFL shootout.

Chargers vs. Browns - Game 8

The Chargers beat the Browns at home, 32-25. This was a tough game because the Chargers kept shooting themselves in the foot. The game should have been a blowout but mistakes kept the game close for the Browns. The Chargers had 12 penalties for 113 yards.


The one bright spot was LT who ran for 172 yards and three 2nd half touchdowns. His longest was a 41 yard TD run to take the lead late in the 3rd quarter and spark the offense for a big 4th quarter.


Without Shawne Merriman, the defense played pretty well, even recovering a fumble in the endzone for a touchdown in the 1st half. They also held the Browns to six field goals before allowing a garbage touchdown at the end of the game.
