Additionally, our defense may give up a lot of yards, but we don't give up a lot of points. Even though our D is ranked #28 to their #6, we still give up 2.6 less PPG to the opposing offense (20.1 and 22.7).

The packers are almost last in defense, but 9 in yards. Hey, maybe stopping the run really is important?

I would hold the ref more accountable for that loss than Rivers. They should have been up by 4 at the point he fumbled the snap. That OPI penalty on Gates in the endzone was just a totally blown call. If anything, it should have gone the other way.

After the BYE week I sure am looking forward to the Packers playing against the Chargers. It is a late game, but hey, at least it is a game!

I've grown to DETEST the 4:15 estn game times. I pay for NFL Sunday Ticket, yet I miss at least the entire first drive or more of the 4:15 pm games because of the 1:00 games running over. A few games ago, I missed the entire first drive that resulted in a Finley touchdown and Vikings week it didn't cut in until the 2ndish play of the Packers first drive, after the Vikings touchdown.

I want more 1:00 pm games!!

But 4 PM games? Can't sleep before them, and can't stay up and alert without coffee or energy drinks, which in turn messes up my whole night's sleep.

This teams is worse than ours when it comes to underperforming and going into lulls. They usually greatly underwhelm in the first part of the season.

Personally, I don't like 4:15 starts because I'm a geezer with blood sugar issues, and so I'm always feeling like a bit of a nap latter part of Sunday afternoon.

But at least 4:15 isn't 7:30 or 8:30. Because that means I have to deal with Motormouth Collinsworth or completely useless ESPN types. The only good thing about evening NFL football (other than the Packers, of course) is Faith Hill's legs.

Means the game starts at 22:15. Not that great a deal when you have to get up at 5:30.

Anyway, I reckon we'll win this win. If Rivers keeps on throwing like he has been, that is. If we run into some bad luck and Rivers regains form, I could actually see us take our first loss of the season.

That said the refs botched a fumble call on the Chiefs in the first quarter when they were inside the Chargers 30. McCluster (I think) had his but, back and shoulders all on the ground before the ball came out and they still, after reviewing it, called it a fumble. Unless there was some secret view we never saw (and I doubt that since they supposedly get the same video replay angles we do), then that was one of the worst calls of the year and very easily could have taken points off the board for the Chiefs. The refs were terrible both ways.
