Chargers by the (Jersey) Numbers: #40
by Andy (allfield) on Nov 6, 2009 10:13 PM PST
in Chargers By The (Jersey) Numbers
0 comments
And now, a break from the football season and time for some meaningless drivel! I’ve posted a few of these without causing a ripple on the front page, but now that there are some fun ones coming up, I thought I’d flash one, and maybe one every once in a while (and, of course, when a vote is necessary).
The 40s mark a departure from the 30s in terms of Charger players, past and present. Lots of good ones to choose from with interesting legacies.
We start with #40.

5 days ago: San Diego Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers fires a pass during the Chargers 24-16 victory over the Oakland Raiders in a NFL football game Sunday, Nov. 1, 2009 in San Diego. Rivers was 16 for 25 for 249 yards in the victory. (AP Photo/Denis Poroy)
Sorry this is a little later than usual today. I had a bit of a busy day. That helped though, as it gave me plenty of time to contemplate what might be the most important, and one of the most evenly-matched, games of the season for the San Diego Chargers. Are you ready to dive in and see what the stats say about this game? Me too.
I'm going to start by dedicating this post to Wonko and maestro876, because for the first time at BFTB.....this week's game preview will include your normal stats and a dash of the super-fancy stats from Football Outsiders as well. Let's get to it.

The Chargers are hopeful inside linebacker Kevin Burnett will play against the Giants, but Brandon Siler could work as many or more than the almost-40 snaps he played last week against Oakland.
"I would think it's not a reach," Turner said when asked whether Siler might get his first start in three NFL seasons.
Burnett practiced in a limited fashion for the second straight day, his first two practices since injuring his ankle Oct. 19 against Denver.
"He's better today," Turner said. "He did more than he's done. That's progress. I know we have the ability to go with Siler and Stephen Cooper (the other inside linebacker). And if Burnett can go, that's a plus."
Giants Bench CC Brown
Aaron Rouse will take his place. Rouse was much maligned in Green Bay a couple of years back, but probably not as much as CC Brown (of course it was Green Bay and not New York). The one interesting thing about Rouse is that he's tall. Almost as tall as VJ and Floyd and definitely taller than Gates and Naanee.

After two straight wins Chargers have squeaked back into the top half of the experts rankings at number 16. The Eagles look to be the big winners this week moving up four sports and getting back in the top ten while the Giants look to be the big losers falling all the way down to number 12. For the rest of the power rankings please click below.

Osi Umenyiora and Justin Tuck have not been dominant. Osi, I think, is not the same player he was a few years ago. Tuck tore his labrum in Week 2 and has been trying to play thru it, but he hasn't been dominant. Inside, Fred Robbins is coming off microcracture knee surgery and isn't what he used to be. The Giants might get Chris Canty back this week, and that has to help some. As for the run defense, here is my thought. robbins is not the player he used to be, same for Antonio Pierce. So, they aren't physically imposing in the middle any more. Also, there has been an astounding lack of discipline, with guys seemingly freelance and not handling their responsibilities. That is very un-Giants like, and very much on the head of the defensive coordinator.
A chat with 'Bolts From The Blue' - Big Blue View
I had a very interesting conversation the other day with Ed Valentine, manager of Big Blue View, about the strengths and weaknesses of the Giants and Chargers. Enjoy.
