PrintSan Diego Chargers at Detroit Lions, Dec 24, 2011 1:05 PM PST
Today's Open Thread is brought to you by the spirit of hate (and Bud Light, I guess). As always these posts are intended entirely in good fun and if you happen to be offended you're probably an idiot.
Congratulations, Detroit Lions fans. I'm sure the entire 2008 Detroit Lions roster indulged in a little champagne last Sunday as the Indianapolis Colts' quest for the perfect 0-16 was foiled by a really lousy Tennessee Titans squad that clearly wanted the L more. Really, though, what can you say about the only franchise to ever field a team that could go winless over a 16 game season? That sort of thing is just incredible. Think about how hard it is to lose that many consecutive games. Truly a remarkable accomplishment. My hat's off to you, Orlovsky & co.
This is a different Detroit team we're looking at this week, though. They are an unremarkable 9-5, slightly above average team that features one of the dirtiest players in the NFL. I am, of course, referring to the monstrous Ndamukong Suh and he is, in fact, a monster*. The man named Suh is as much one of the premiere defensive players in The League as he is one of its premier assholes. Here's hoping he manages not to snap Philip Rivers over his knee after the whistle this afternoon.
That brings us to Detroit. The city of Detroit isn't just known for crime, unemployment and the manufacture of inferior automobiles**. They also have some pretty good fans. You have to be a good fan to weather the storm that was 2008. I have to ask, though, where do these people get off acting so cocky about this year's club coming into today's game? Don't get me wrong. The Lions sport above average offensive and defensive units, but neither is elite and they've both been trending downhill coming into this game***.
Ultimately, though, I don't give a crap about Detroit's crappy city, its crappy people, its crappy cars or any of that. Much like I only hated Jacksonville because I was afraid they were bad enough to lose to my Chargers when it looked like losing out was our best case scenario, I hate Detroit because they just might be good enough to win when as a Charger fans I can practically taste the playoff berth.
I apologize for the lateness of this week's Two Minutes of Hate and its low quality****, but I hope you all hang around to discuss the game with us.
*In the off season, I hear he actually hides in children's closets at night.
**That's not fair. Those totally are the only things they're known for.
***That's per FootballOutsiders.com's DVOA stats in case any of you morons wanted to argue with me.
****I think we all know I'm not sorry for anything.

Right...did you see the coverage there?
I’m not jumping off any ledges here Richard, but that was ugly coverage on their best receiver. Neither of our guys knew where the ball was, which has been the problem in this secondary for everyone but Weddle this season.
You're probably right, but it's early still.

Yeah I know its early
let’s see what Manusky and Wilks can figure out to cover that guy…while not leaving their other receivers open. Guess I know what it’s like to play against a team like the Chargers now
I really like how Thomas has developed this year.

Defense is awful

Offense is looking like crap, too

This reminds me of last seasons loss at Cincinatti
Chargers were in playoff contention and lost on the road to Cincinatti in terrible fashion.

oh well merry christmas and such
barring an unforseen turnaround in the 2nd half i am looking forward to next year
I wish, if anything,
We beat the raiders just to show we know how.

Stafford's process:
1. Snap ball and drop back
2. Look for defender #28 and throw to player that he is “covering”
3. Celebrate first down
4. Repeat

how can a team look pretty good 3 games in a row, and then look this horrible?

Cannot cover anyone

Huge hole in the zone
Jammer failed to jam him, then ‘handed off’ to Gregory, who was still in the end zone and ten yards away.

I can't even imagine what Manusky was (apparently still is) thinking.

I wish Vincent Jackson would catch the ball at the high point
instead of letting it drift into his midsection
I was about to say that.

The same thing the Chargers always do in that situation.

Vincent Jackson is not proving
he’s worth a big contract extension, hurt or not. All year he’s been consistently losing 1v1 matchups against smaller DBs by not utilizing his larger frame to “box out.” He’s been lacking technical skills this year that he’d previously displayed in the past.
too many body catches
