Um...kick a field goal? No need to go for the TD when you're up by 24 points late in the game.

But, yes, I think they lack heart. Who is the heart and soul player of that team?

Maybe Keith Brooking?

There is a lot of hot chicks at the game in San Diego.

Good defensive half for the Chargers so far.

Looks like Ryan and Schotty are realizing that Greene is better than Jones. Frustrating seeing Jones not get anything.

I agree 100%!
Except... kicking a field goal on a 4th and 3 on the 11 yard line is far from "letting your foot off the gas". 9/10 times in that situation you go for the field goal and put points on the board. The only time you don't is when you trail by more then 3 points and time is running out. We're not talking 4th and 3 on the 33rd yard line where you would normally think about going for it since a FG is a long shot and a punt doesn't really get you much. Going for it on 4th down in that situation is nothing more then running up the score and has nothing to do with letting your foot of the gas. If it were a down and distance that you would normally go for it then I'd understand. I'm not saying they should have taken a knee, I just feel they should have kicked the field goal like you normally would and feel good about your 27 point victory.

Jets have come out fairly strong in the 2nd half. I think the Chargers are going to have to make a big play on defence. And just as I type it, Jammer has the pick.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOO VIKINGS!!!
Working on two hours of sleep, so that's all I've really got for now. Don't know why they kept going for it on 4th down in the 4th quarter.
Suck it Romo!
Suck it Marion "I Like to Cheer After Pedestrian Runs" Barber!
Anddd Suck It Gerald "He Might Do a Press Conference After Losing" Sensabaugh!

The Vikings should have gone for 2 as well.
Cowboys deserve nothing less than an absolute crap-kicking.

I'm not watching, but I just noticed in a box score that Kaeding is 0/2 on FG's. Anyone know from how far out? That's nuts.

I don't know how far it was but he definitely should have made the first one.

Wow, 57? End of the half?
Thanks for the info. Kaeding is as steady as they come.
