NFL and back in America

Today I'll just give a few thoughts on Sundays Chargers game. The game began with a little deja vu, a kick return for a touchdown on the very first play of the season. It's hard to think that this could be an aberration. As a result, Kaeding is out for the season. It is really hard to pinpoint what is wrong here, but hopefully its a one time thing as most NFL teams manage their special teams with bench players without issue. However, the tone set by this play was apparent in the poor play by the Chargers in the first half. The half was punctuated by Rivers being upset on a 4th and 20 play that Turner was afraid to give the go ahead to Scifres to kick the field goal. The second half proved different, the defense looked better, and despite a pedestrian game for Rivers usual standard, they pulled of the W. The turning point may as well have been Scifres kicking and ugly looking, but good field goal from about 40 yards out. Hopefully this is a sign that the Chargers will be able to handle adversity this season as opposed to fading when it counts. Coach Turner is on the hot seat, and should be on his team to keep their heads in the game. My heart says yes he can, but my brain says no. Lets hope the Chargers show some heart., AND play with their brains this season.
