Damn
That's all I can say is damn. I can't say that the ref cheated us because that's a fine. I can't say that the Broncos didn't win that game because that's being a sore loser. I can't say that it was a mistake that the replay machine wasn't working in the first qtr cause that would be a lie. What I can say is damn damn damn. As a competitor it should never come down to the last play, but it did and we let it slip away. We can say that we should have won because the ref messed up a call and admitted it but at the end of the day we should never give up 39pts as a defense. I'm still proud of all my guys - they played their hearts out and left it all on the field. There are a few positives that come out of this. One is that the Giants started 0 and 2 last year, and two is that we started 1 and 4 last year. It's all good, our backs are against the walls, time to come out swinging. Ain't no punks on this team and we will show you better than we can tell you.

You're definitely not a sore loser. Incomplete pass!? Are you freaking kidding me!?!? Arghh....How could you not want to rip that guy's head off right now?
-
Coming from a fan of the game, you guys got robbed but KARMA is the ultimate bitch this is exactly what Phillip Rivers gets for being a sore winner last year and talking smack to Jay Cutler and the Broncos...cause that was uncalled for.
Lets be serious, what does Phillip Rivers have to be cocky about? He's done nothing in this league to prove himself more elite than anybody that he takes the field with.
So, Rivers acts like a jerk to the Broncos and the karma merry-go-round comes back to smack him and his team in the face.... -
what is it with people and karma??? wtf.
-
hey braniac, we know the definition of the word, we're just questioning your use of it. oh, and learn to spell que. it's only three letters, C-U-E, keep practicing and I bet you'll get it after a few tries. hang in there.
-
Karma means that Phillip Rivers needs to take a que from Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and the true class act QBs of the AFC and learn to shut his trap and just play.
Unfortunatly, being a jerk came back to bite him in the ass. Along with his team.
Also, LT's career is on the way out...that cat can't play ball anymore fo real. -
dude tsix..what are you talking about???
-
hey pinkpantherr, I was responding to smithr690 next post down; this wonky system got the order of the comments all mixed up.
-
smithr690... There is no such thing as karma, just like Santa Claus and trickle-down economics. If there was karma, George W. Bush would be a goner by now. Cutler is the one that needs to learn some class. He threw a hissy fit on the sideline last week during the second half when the Chargers were driving and tying up the game. I'm sure his defense appreciated that. Then, after being handed the game on not one but two bad calls, just ran into the locker room at game's end without shaking hands with the Chargers. Cutler is a poor sport and that is "fo" real!

YO COMING FROM A RAIDER FAN ... YALL GOT CHEATED !!!!! BiG TiME
-
same here coming from a Raider Fan i glad a player sees how the Refs are
-
But cant say the true cause of the fines u will get sorry man
-
Raiders have nothing to do with the fact...a win is a win...
-
Worst.call.ever.
You may not be able to say it, but we can.
Broncos did not deserve that win. You guys were cheated and it cost you all the game.
I was so hoping for a miracle field goal at the end there!
-
the Broncos deserved the win no doubt, SD still had a chance to win the game AFTER the bad call and they didn't
-
Great to hear from you about this game. I'm still pissed off about this one. It's tough when you have to go up against a team AND the refs.
Can't wait for MNF next week, i know you guys will come out swinging. All of us fans still have your back. -
we can say it. you got cheated, everyone could clearly see that was a fumble
-
The Unicorns got lucky...Clearly a FUMBLE ......
Also brandon marshall is getting way to much credit as some top WR in NFL:
TO had 20 catches for 283 1 TD....Insane Ratio--TO showed why he is a beast when he did this in 2000
BM had 18 for 166 1 TD....Wack Ratio...Gay Cutler and his two yard hitches and slants....this YPC ratio is horrible for a WR...
-
Please, don't insult just because things didn't go your way....GO Broncos
-
yea Go Broncos Straight to Hell
-
how can you hate on 18 catches? even if they were for short yardage, it's still tough getting open 18 times and catching the ball 18 times against a good defense.
-
a good defense? any defense that gives up 39 pts like that is not good. maybe some people are giving to much credit to teams that dont deserve it and not enough credit to teams that do deserve it...its week 2 though and 14 more games left so we'll just wait....
go my way, yea buddy....my giants won last year....and for this yr is all is going well.....
18 catches is 18 catches. Cutler needed 50 throws for it to happen. Thats insane. Next week against the Saints he'll throw 200 passes and Brandon Marshall will catch 72 balls for 10 yds. -
Well if I'm not mistaken, the Broncos gave up about that many points too. Way to shoot yourself in the foot, pony-fan.
-
chelle im not a Unicorn fan....Giants fan...so dont you feel dumb....
-
hey man i feel your pain, but i think you had one of the best refs in the league today. i know i know two calls were blown and they were huge and did cost you the game, but ed (incredible hulk) is good. the replay machine not working is horrible and it blows. the call at the end he admitted he was wrong which i think makes him a great ref in its own because he admitted his mistake but could do nothing about it. it happens when theres refs with quick whistles. it sux that 2 weeks in a row you guys lose at the buzzer. i know the caliber of that team though and with your backs against the wall as you said, id be scared to play you. hopefully all the bad luck is coming now to pave the way for the end of the year. best of luck
-
We still believe in the Chargers here in San Diego! I really enjoy watching you guys play, and the way you play. Go Chargers!
-
You can believe, but its not the same as winning. Go Broncos
-
Well, Broncos prison b!tch, that "win" will forever have an asterisk next to it. I have no animus for either team in that game, but that was as textbook a fumble as any I've ever seen.
-
you did not win that games the refs did

Haha let me say it for you Mr. 9-5, THAT REF FRICKEN CHEATED US BIG TIME, THE BETTER TEAM DEFINITELY LOST TODAY
-
I know you guys are down from this one, Shaun.
We were robbed.
But I know you guys will shrug it off and come back with a vengeance.
We'll prove who the better team is when they come to our place. In the meanwhile, take your frustrations out on Brett Favre and Gang Green next week. -
You are right that it should never come down to a call by the ref - however I have watched my last football game because the officiating is TERRIBLE. You can tell by the end of the 1st quarter in most games who the officials are for. The official should be fired from his job. I saw that the ball was fumbled when it happened and I was watching it at home. I am completey frustrated and won't be watching any more professional games.
-
Well said.
The refs handed Denver this game and they ran away with it…..barely.
….I want your post next week to be about how good it feels to beat Favre and the Jets and rebound from this.
"Ain't no punks on this team"
-
I'm gonna have to agree with everyone on this, while some would see it as "unprofessional" of you to say it...as fans, we can get away with it...we were ROBBED.
I really respect you for accepting and handling that situation so well though, seriously.
Was a tough game to watch.
Keep your head up and the yard updated, SP!
Best of luck next week, can't wait. -
That was a good game, until the guys who officials decided who won.
-
*official
-
I'm more of a Chargers fan than I am a Broncos fan. HOWEVER, maybe we should take karma into consideration with this one. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsSpYLU7Ig0 Remember?
-
u cant do anything but take that on the chin.....sh*t happens

Can't argue that the call was horrible. I was eating at a restaurant and the game was on and the whole place thought the ref had to have been blind. And I'm not even a SD fan, just don't like the douchebag of a QB.
-
Go Broncos!!!!
-
Go Broncos!!!! Woo Hoo
-
Jay Cutler is a friggin beast!
-
you got cheated but not on purpose. the ref, ed, has been around longer than any of them. he blew the wistle. you got to give it up to him for taking credit immeditately! look, broncos chargers play twice a year, go out and kick thier butt next time. you can blame the ref for giving up 39 points either!
-
Not 39, just six of them.
-
ref's gave broncos 15 points. I would love to see chargers play with 12 plyers 1 wearing stripes.
-
Either way, if you remove the referees' utter (perhaps intentional) incompetence, the Chargers win.
-
Man, coming from a Broncos fan I admit that play was a fumble and we caught a lucky break. Some calls go your way and some go the other. One thing for sure is....where the hell was the defense on both sides in this game??? It was a shootout...Denver shoulda blew them out but let a good lead slip away. It just sucks it had to come down to bad officiating.......That ref is usually the best in the game...
-
coming from an Eagles fan that was a lousy call and should have been overturned! Def was a Chargers win, your team was robbed!
-
You said it well. Damn!
