Week 3: Chargers lose to Texans 20-17

The bottom line for this game...I can't believe the Chargers gave up a 94 yard drive to Jake Locker to lose this game.  The winning TD throw came on 3rd and 10 on the Charger 34 with 21 seconds left.  Let's go over that again...Jake Locker, 94 yard drive, 34 yard TD pass on 3rd and 10, 21 seconds left.  Are you kidding me!!??  Yea, I know Justin Hunter pushed off on the game winning catch, but the reality is Locker had Damian Williams open for the game winner the play before and really Locker should never had been able to go down the field without being sacked and completing 6-9 passes (and one of those was a spike to stop the clock).

Week 2: Chargers Upset Eagles 33-30

Before the season started I would have pegged Week 2's game against the Eagles a potential win for the Chargers...after Week 1 though, I don't anyone except the most die hard Charger fan was picking the Chargers to beat the Eagles in Philly.  Surprisingly, it was the Chargers offense that couldn't be stopped, punting only once in 11 possessions.

Week 1 Chargers Fall to the Texans 31-28

The Chargers blew this game...no way to sugar coat it.

The offense looked pretty good for 2 quarters + 1 drive...then couldn't get anything done the rest of the way.  After that last 80 yard TD drive to start the 2nd half, the Chargers had 4 three-and-outs and the pick 6 for the tying touchdown...total time of possession for those 5 drives, 5:30.

San Diego Chargers, Last Look Before the Season

Forget about the last preseason game...none of the starters (on offense or defense) played a snap and it was basically an audition for guys like WR Robert Meachem, RT Max Starks, and RB Fozzy Whitaker to make the team.
