The San Diego Chargers Will Lose to the Kansas City Chiefs

PrintI hate to ruin everyone else's fun and Super Bowl plans, but the San Diego Chargers are a bad football team. So bad, in fact, that they're going to lose at home on Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs while the game is blacked out locally. Los Angeles will write articles laughing at our fanbase and saying how they don't even want the Chargers until Norv Turner is gone, and they'll be right.
Not one person can explain to me how the 2011 Chargers is any different than the 2010 Chargers, because there is no difference. "But this team has Vincent Jackson", you say. Shut up, adults are talking. You are a baby that is too dumb to realize that Antonio Gates' might actually be playing on a prosthetic foot and nobody has told us yet. Those two things cancel each other out. Last week, with Richard Goodman and Wes Welker not able to get open against the Patriots terrible CBs, it looked an awful lot like the terrible 2010 Chargers team.
Here are the things the Chargers have become known for:
- Putting up big offensive stats, and sometimes defensive stats.
- Playing up or down to the level of the competition.
- Winning or losing every game in the 4th quarter.
- Never, ever winning the turnover battle unless it's handed to them on a silver platter.
- Playing as if it's the first time anyone on the team has been introduced to the sport of American Football.

John boy
Is that really you?
Been 2 games this year.
Relax.
But I like the negative view on it, hopefully it rubs off on the players and they think that everyone expects them to lose.
It's his AJ Turner impersonation.

It's working
because Arrowhead Pride readers are definitely coming over here to read this article. Though, we don’t agree at all.
This is the best Ask a fan post I've seen from John
I totally agree with his thoughtful analysis…alright even I can’t say it. I thought the point of the article was
Don’t be surprised if the Chiefs are in this game in the 4th quarter, with the winner determined by (Andrew) Luck.
that the Chiefs are listening to the Suck for Luck talk
Think about the turnovers in this game
One of Rivers picks was a dumb throw, the other was just a good play by a D-lineman. The fumble by Tolbert was on him, not Turner. And the Rivers fumble at the end of the game didnt matter because the game was over. It was like a hail marry at the end of the game getting intercepted, it doesnt effect the outcome.
sorry. ur not gonna convince me that pick was good play by a D lineman. it was a bad throw by rivers

most negative article ive ever read
You take the award for most negative article. Although I understand the negativity its 2 weeks into the season. Hopefully they turn it around, but the players and front office are not reading this, so why freak out when no one of importance is listening? Negative fans is not what this team needs.
negativity is understandable...
All we’ve heard from the players and coaches alike is the emphasis on fast starts and complete games. It’s not happening so people are frustrated and negative. While I disagree with this post, and I am a firm believer things will be turned around as in 2009 (hopefully not in January though), I am still frustrated at the type of loss on Sunday, a surely winable game.
Sunday I think will be what I call a confidence builder game, in which we win 42-7.
Speaking of Luck
Please don’t ruin our chances to get him by letting us win this one. Please?
Who's writing this, a 3rd grader
Dude, Welker plays for the Patriots, so yes, it would be incredibly difficult for him to get open against the Patriots CB’s…dumbass.
It's a joke, genius. Walters = Welker.

As a Chiefs fan, I am pretty sure John has lost his mind.
How in the world are 25% of the people picking the Chiefs? I thought the point spread should have been at least 21 points, and I still would have picked the Chargers to cover. If this game was in KC, who knows, maybe we could score 3 return TD’s, but I think it will be ugly. Without Berry, Rivers will shred the deep middle of the field.
The views expressed by craig in calgary do not necessarily represent the views of all Canadians.
Not just the deep middle
We currently can’t tackle anyone, let alone a guy known for shedding tackles like Tolbert. All the Chargers have to do is like up with 3 wide and Tolbert or Matthews in the backfield and mix up runs/pass. The Chiefs will have a terrible and retarded 2-3-6 formation to try to defend it and Tolbert can easily rack up 7-8 YPC all day long. I fully expect him to end up with at least that high of an average by the end of the game if they’re smart enough to run out of 3 wides.
3 WR formations (11 personnel)
have consistently been the most efficient and successful part of this offense, yet Norv only called it roughly 19 times last game even though the pats couldn’t stop it. So the Chiefs might get lucky and Norv won’t base his offense around his most successful personnel group…again.
The spread... it's about getting whomped twice.
There’s this tendency for casual gamblers to bet heavily against teams after they get slaughtered. Since most massacres are outliers, or at least somewhat derived from accidents of scoreboard, and teams tend to get up after bad losses, they tend to beat these spreads. This causes more astute gamblers to get conservative, and following human judgment, they tend to go too far that way and put too much money on the dog. This keeps spreads in the 2TD range following a blowout.

I think John has forgotten that Matt Cassel is still the Chiefs QB
No matter how bad Norv may be, even he can figure out that he really doesn’t need to do more than single cover anyone more than 15 yards downfield… Or if he’s really worried he can just double cover Bowe…Cassel will run around in circles not knowing what to do, until he’s sacked.
Be prepared for several series to go like this:
1st down: Thomas Jones up the middle for a 3 yd gain
2nd down: Screen pass to Dexter McCluster for a 2 yard loss
3rd down: Screen pass to Leonard Pope for a 4 yard gain
4th down: Punt
Final stat: Matt Cassel, 24-40 for 115 yards.
Predictions:
I'm going to stop predicting positive things
Wow, jmcgoblue. Are you the Chiefs OC in disguise? That is so close to a typical Chiefs possession. Don’t forget…other than screens, they like to dink and dump. those passes are always directly next to an opposing defender. Or the pass is behind the receiver.
This is the most pathetic Chiefs team I have ever cheered for. My younger brother is a Chargers fan. This should be a real doozy.
Fantasy Football Tip of the Week
Start any/all San Diego Chargers on your FF roster. There is no reason the Chargers will not shred our Secondary. If we can’t get any rush on Rivers and get him a little rattled I don’t like the Chiefs chances at all. Sleeper – Dexter McCluster

ATTENTION
If you’ve just recently joined the site you might not understand this article given the fact you haven’t read all or even a third of what has been posted on this site. John is obviously frustrated because he’s been sticking up for the HC the GM and has given the team in general the benefit of the doubt at every turn. We’ve discussed this on many occasions and the outcome is the same,we have a problem here and its been lingering since 2005…and it has been exasperated by the apparent dumbassness of the comments of our HC and the" everything will be fine tomorrow, hey look a dandelion" attitude by him and the team. He has a very valid point in his diatribe and a lot of us feel the same way.

I've heard about those HC and GM issues
But the Chargers will beat the Chiefs this Sunday with Bert and Ernie running the HC and GM positions respectively as well
maybe if they read this post by john....
they’ll be reverse psychology’d into being more optomistic about the season just to prove john wrong and rub it in his face….yeah
This might be your best comment ever. Rec'd.

People are finally coming down off the spiked kool-aid
While not nearly this bad, reality is a bland comparison.
If they Chargers can score 7 points
they have an excellent chance of winning.

I'm a Chiefs fan and I think there is no way you guys lose to us.
I think we’ve built a nice talent base (most of whom are injured), but you guys are still the cream of the crop in the AFC West. I always dread playing Rivers because he always finds a way to shred our secondary. Even in KC last year, we had to win the game ugly. I know you guys start slow most years (which I still can’t figure out), but Rivers and your wr’s have looked like they are at mid season form . I expect you to win big on Sunday. BTW, I do not troll sites. I enjoy talking to Chargers and even Broncos fans, because you guys have legit conversations. It never turns into a pissing contest.
John,
This is the best article you’ve ever DONE!!!!!! I totally agree that the Chargers SUCK!!!!! Norv Turner couldn’t coach his way out of a wet paper bag!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Last but not least, the Chiefs are going to kick our asses all over Qualcomm on Sunday!!!!!! Screw AJ Smith and his upbeat CRAPOLA!!!!!!!! We should have kept Drew Brees, Wes Welker, and Rodney Harrison!!!!!!! Eric Weddle SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!

'Cause it's only semi-sarcastic.
It’s overstated (a lot), but the intent is what it is.
The Chargers are really good, but the bigger the game, the jitterier they get. Big game jitters are a psychological thing, and yes, it does begin with the head coach. This is the book on Turner. He’s too smart to replace easily, and too soft to like your chances of going all the way.
They’re going to whop the Chiefs. It’s a home game.

Just because the Chiefs don’t have Jamaal Charles or Eric Berry or Tony Moeaki this season does not mean they’re any worse than the 2010 Seahawks, Bengals, Rams, Chiefs or Raiders.
All of those teams are better than the Chiefs right now
The Bengals were REALLY bad.

I also hated how Rivers said the teams was EXCITED
after the loss. Who is excited after a poor game like that?? That just sound like an excuse for the Chargers on losing. It’s not exciting to lose a game by giving up 4 turnonvers, it’s not exciting when a coach says we were 4 turnonvers away from winning the game. It’s a bunch of crap.
They are excited not because of the loss, but about the team they can become. So, the past 4 years the Chargers could of been SB champs, had the best roster, loaded, and still became non existent when it matters.
Stop the BS, you lost the game because you sucked hard, stopping making excuses.
I would rather the Chargers come out and say, we are pissed at the way we lost, we did a poor job on defense and a horrible job protecting the football. We will be working very hard this week on eliminating those mistakes.
Yes, they are the Patriots and yes its only week 2. But cut the crap, the Chargers are there own worst enemy. I would not be surprised if we do lose to the Chiefs, because we are not a consistent football team and we do play to the level of our opponent. This game should be Chargers 42-3 and I hope it is. If we are down after the half, I will flip out and punch someone.
We need to focus more on fixing our problems and not focus on being excited on who we can become. F* what we can become, its been 4 years and we still aint shit. F*** the excuses and lets man up to our mistakes and play some real damn football.

Awesome Article
There’s no way we’re losing to the Chiefs, but you put my general thought into words.
The sky has fallen...
We need to get a hold of Miracle Max and get John Butler back… since we know he’s rolling over in his grave with what AJ Smith has done to his roster!
Someone call Marty Schottenheimer, and tell him that Butler will defer to him on player personnel decisions!
And damn it all, why didn’t we trade Drew Brees for Matt Cassel when we had the chance? Josh McDaniels hadn’t blown him or the Denver Broncos up by that point!
Sadly, none of this will occur, because we live in real life and we all know that the “desperate” bad team always wipes the floor with the “satisfied” good team.

Well there is one way ...
Anyone so sure of himself should just put it all on KC on the money line rather than bore the rest of us with panty waist prognostications ( Danger Will Robinson ! ) based on insufficient data and vitriol .
Is it bad that I read this whole post imagining the voice of Coastal Carolina's coach melting down?

Seriously though, John you have some good points in here that I agree with, but the Chargers aren’t going to lose to the Chiefs, not this week anyhow. The Chargers are going to do just enough to get our hopes up for the playoffs and fall short again, like they always do…because, well, they’re the Chargers and that’s what they do.
I think the whole post can be summed up by saying the Chargers don’t play smart football, and Championship-winning teams do. We have all been waiting for this team to mature and stop making those crucial mistakes when the game is on the line, yet they keep popping up. We need to remember that the Chargers aren’t the only team that is this way though. The Chargers have a good team, with solid talent, and great leaders…what they appear to lack is attention to detail.

There’s a hidden note somewhere in the post that explains why this post was done. The only person to have found it thusfar was someone I pointed it out to.

Nice
The mere fact you used Welker’s name directly, without any reference, at all; makes this rant an instant classic. The additional fact that others (ignorant mass) didn’t readily understand your slight of hand makes it even better. Game on! There is still a chance, 2-3 heading into the bye. Go Chargers!!!
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
I’ve been reading this site for years and I can’t remember something so negative being written about the Bolts; I love it. I don’t agree that we will lose, but I understand the frustration. Why will this season be any different than the others?
But I think Mike Florio says that it is important to beat down bad teams when you think your team is good. Chargers should at leat win by 3 scores; otherwise its worry time.

Chiefs Sunday
I must say I have felt the same way about the Chargers for a very long time. I often tell my brother we are the Chicago Cubs of the NFL. I have been watching this team my whole life and am just as frustrated as ever. Marty Schottenheimer keyed this teams rise from the cellar endlessly hammering them about turnovers. I cannot f@@king believe what I’m seeing so far. When I was young growing up in Poway it was air Coryell and those were great memories. At 41 still no championship, still shooting ourselves in the foot, still always an excuse instead of answers. “4 turnovers from having a chance.?” Why did we turn it over 4 times??? Jesus!!!! If you keep throwing to the running backs in the flat they will probably drop a lineman into coverage to see if they can catch you napping. DUH!!! Unfortunately if KC is in the game in the fourth quarter Sunday I will not be surprised either. Please Chargers please, get it together. I will never quit pulling for my Bolts but it is painful to say the least.
You're welcome, John.

I wouldn't be too worried.
Y’all realize that we’ve been outscored 89-10 so far this season, right?
And that our two best players are hurt? The one that makes the defense and the one that makes the offense?
Y’all do realize that out QB is basically a slow tight end with a decent arm… for a tight end. Right?
Damn, must be nice to be bitching about winning a game and then drop a close one to the Patriots..
awesome.
i love it how the table turns around here. John Genero the leader of the reasonable, simply stops looking at the glass is half full theory and making excuses for the Chargers. recognizes there is a pattern, gives an honest analogy of the team and the regulars jump on it like bunch of trolls, an make a mockery of his article. let me try something like this, i get jumped like hooker a frat party.
people, there is not one untruth that John Genro said. we’ve have been patient for the last for seasons, and ever single season the Chargers have played, the exact same way. all the while promising “things will be different”.
The peanut gallery has spoken!!!
apologies John Gennaro...
The peanut gallery has spoken!!!
Im a KC chiefs fan
Im really kind of shocked by the comments on this post, you lost to the Patriots in a great game. Someone had to lose. Phillips is a premier QB we wish we had. I know your frustrations and all but damn you guys are the cream of the crop in this division. Tolbert, Jax, Rivers, a top 5 D, man I dont get it especially a blackout possibility

I'm still stunned by the amount of people who think this is a serious article.
