Having said that, i rate the Chargers high, i posted in the SB thread just last week that i actually think they are the only realistic threat to beat the Pats in the AFC, (come at me with your record vs The Hoodie, Steelers fans) they are much better than a 6-6 team, specials teams and their asian kicker got them off to an 0-4 start, they have played really well since. Haven't seen their remaining schedule but it would be a shame if they didn't make it from here.
 
Im a hardcore steelers fan and i am disappointed JuJu got a week for that. He led with his shoulder which is what you should do, if anything his helmet may have clipped Burficts but the intent was the shoulder. I didn't like the taunting but at the same time Burfict has done so many dirty hits in his time. The 2015 wildcard game stands out to me most.

In my opinion Ilokas hit was worse. At least JuJu was laying a block, what's his excuse?

Should of been a fine for JuJu and 1 week for Iloka.
 
Years ago that was nothing, other than blame Berfict for not expecting a hit.

Now its an illegal hit.

Yeah the research has opened alot of eyes and thats fair enough, but some of these 'commenters' are really laying on the horror.

Rewind a couple of seasons and those same people are singing a different tune.

Vs Washington
@ KC
@ Jets
Vs Raiders

Based on my results on the Playoff machine who ever wins nextweek between LA and KC will win the West.

I havent seen a blindside block that big that wasnt on a punt return in a while.

But even 5 years ago they were celebrated. If JuJu didnt stand over him i dont think it would be much of a story, just a illegal hit like any other. Same with the hit on Brown with the game tying TD if it was anyother game and any other teams i dont think that was a suspension just a flag and a fine.

It's an illegal block regardless of leading with his shoulder

I agree. In my view they are the 3rd best team in the afc.

If they dont blow the 1st two games on missed field goals they are 8-4.

They also ran the patriots close in new england (had the ball at the 20 looking to force ot but ran out of time)

Lost to the eagles by 2 pts in an even match

No idea how they lost to the jags but still..another big contender in a close ot match.

They have a veteran qb whos playing well, a stud wider receiver and decent depth receivers, two solid red Zone threat tight ends and a dynamic dual threat run game

Their defense has an enormous pass rush and great secondary, only glaring weakness is against the run.

Exxiting team to watch..could definitely get to the afc title game this year.

I guess with the chargers you always have to watch for them to fall over themselves ( see jags game)...but still on talent and on form they are one of the best in that conference

and can anyone tell me who Robby Anderson is?
A GG fantasy pick up early last year who I unfortunately released too early. He's a deep threat mainly. Too skinny. Doesn't beat the press.
 
Adam Thielen has 1057 yards already? o_O That's a bigger surprise to me than Robby Anderson

I'm sure that if Danny Woodhead didn't get injured for 8 weeks on the first Ravens drive on offense, he'd be our leading receiver. Breshad Perriman (who seems to be on the field a lot on 1 WR sets) has less receiving yards than both Danny Woodhead and Eric Weddle (if you count INT return yards) :oops:

Thielen nearly cracked 1000 yards last year and this year is no surprise to Vikings fans - he just didn't get any national recognition until this year. It always helps your profile when your team is successful....

More remarkable given he's got Keenum throwing the ball to him for the majority of the season.

Bloke is seriously talented, tore up the Packers last season in one game I believe.
