Secondary Thoughts on Wild Card Victory

Chargers 23 Colts 17
"SAY ELLO TO MY LIL FREN !"




Our Little Pocket Rocket came up HUGE (I saw a commenter at KSK refer to him as .43 cent) and redeemed himself after a devastating fumble near the end of the 3rd quarter. He threw the Bolts up on his back and went out in Walk off TD style...



...and King Philip overcame a horrible interception early in the 4th Quarter to lead us on a game tying FG drive to end the game and then the game winner in OT. Philip was not without his terrible looking "throw away passes", or his sometimes under thrown passes but when it was all said and done he LED the team to victory.

For those who are not fans of Philip Rivers: take note of how awkward he looks when he runs: he is about 11 months post ACL reconstruction surgery and he is not the most athletic guy: but when the Chargers needed a 1st down, he scrambled, ran (term used loosely), called positioning on a Sproles block, deftly snuck around the end, dove, miraculously sailed head first, bounced knee off of turf, and got us a 1st down down. It was awesome! One of those moments where you say you are proud that he plays for your city.

We mentioned little keys to the game like rushing attack (because Colt D is small and it keeps Manning off the field) which showed we were spot on with our analysis. Then there was, positive turnover differential, which we were terribly wrong about---TWO turnovers in the end zone...

What were we most correct about? Us amateur armchair QBs....


SUPERSTITIONS of course...

  1. Facial Hair was rocking
  2. Baby clutching Power Towel throughout
Check!...Check!...

What of our other beliefs?


3. Voodoo in play....The Manning de Milo
4. Dynamic Sage Duo...H.H. The Dalai Lama and Ms. Alba

Check!...Check!...

Playoff Hockey Beards...Dirty undies during a winning streak...HTP's inane beliefs...

DO NOT FUCK WITH WINNING COMBINATIONS PEOPLE!

Our next Voodoo Doll? Roethlisberger or Collins? Oh, the joy, that is arts & crap time! Alas, we are committed!

Our final thoughts on an epic game that made me want to throw a remote through TV and shit myself in disbelief....
.....everything that went wrong for us early in the year, changed last night. We got all of the breaks. Penalty calls when we needed them and 1 sack...when we really needed it. It was great to have such good fortune....and a punter who is a GOD!!

I WILL THRASH YOUR BALLS
