Bolts win. Not pretty but a win Still wondering why we didn't win by more. This will occupy my mind until Thursday. Merely toying with them. It's funner that way. As I promised you all in Free Agency, Mack is a Beast !!!!

And before our very eyes, we watched Asanti Samuel become his father yesterday.
I got a little sentimental.

Callahan, returning to 2020 form, completely locked down Renfrow. Like WOW locked down.

I love Baldy's Breakdowns- especially when they are after a Chargers win!

When your Edge rusher is shoving the 3000 pound tackle up the QB's ass for a sack, you are officially there. Mack=Beast Mode

Joe Lombardi said he went a little too conservative with his playcalling in the 4th. Duh Joe. No shit man.

Joe Lombardi said he went a little too conservative with his playcalling in the 4th. Duh Joe. No shit man. I was twisting in the wind during the 4th quarter just like everyone else. I was mentally preparing for the Chargers to "Charger" away this victory. At the time I wanted us to push and play much more aggressively. While I still believe that, I have tempered my view a bit. When I was in the corporate world, I spent a significant amount of time working on fixing broken restaurants all over the country. It didn't matter where I went, the problem was almost always the same. Bad losing culture. Its a cancer. It kills morale. It kills enthusiasm. It breaks down good people. These restaurants would go through GM's and the quality of operations would almost always the same. If the new leader cannot change the culture then everything is in vain. From experience, changing a losing culture is one of the hardest things to do on the planet. Cultures outlive individuals. Cultures are resistant to any and all change. Looking at it today, yesterday was a day to begin the paradigm shift of our culture. Watching the talking heads say that we finally demonstrated that we could close a game out is huge. The players see and hear that stuff. We got a lead, sat on it, and fought off a frenetic charge from a very good team. That can't be discounted. This team doesn't necessarily need to learn how to win, but they do need to learn how not to lose games they should win. I, like everyone else, want to see more of that killer instinct, but the way we won yesterday was critically important as well. We closed. Special teams deserve some props for tightening up that unit that has killed us for years. That being said, place kickers were heroes and goats all throughout the league yesterday. Without sounding greedy, have a kicker that is clutch from 60 yards in could end up winning 2 to 3 games over what we currently have. Stupid long kicks made all day long and we miss a 48 yarder that would have only added to the Raiders discomfort.

I mean you can’t be the aggressive, go for it on the 4th team if your offense is going to use the Anthony Lynn playbook. |

When the score went to 24-19 with 4:32 left I turned to my seat mates at the game and said if 2022 is going to be different we’ll know it in the next 5 minutes. Hope it is because we probably lose this game in 2021. Still, I think we could have won with a cushion |
