Yes, they’re alive! Last Monday, the San Diego Chargers threw a reminder to the AFC players and fans, to let them know they’re still out there and they want to win.
The Chargers felt really comfortable at home and proved it when they defeated the New York Jets 29-48. San Diegodominated 3 out of the 4 quarters during the NFL game, making the Jets (the Favre Jets!) look not-so-good. Sure, it hasn’t been a great start for the Chargers, who were 0-2 before this game. It’s their first victory! Why make a big fuzz about it, you would say?
Well, a bad start could happen to anyone. But, looking at the AFC contenders, we can’t just put the Chargers away. They have been consistently good (or at least above decent) during the last seasons. We know they have a solid team. The kind of team that could give a big surprise along the way. Didn’t the Giants do just that, and at the very end of the road?
Keep an eye on LaDainian Tomlinson, and keep an eye on the Chargers. This team could get a lot further than we think.
