Now now, the chargers lost that game more than the patriots won it. SO many silly mistakes on the field, martyball was no where to blame.
Fumbling an interception after the 4th down??
Fumbling the return and making a rookie mistake of not falling on the ball?
That stupid roughing penalty that gave the patriots the 1st down the needed?
what was with giving up a timeout to contest a play which had no chance of reversal?
Troy Brown stripped the ball...heads up play on his part. Poor coaching and fundamentals on SD part. The defender should have knocked the pass down or dropped to the ground after the interception.
Fumbling the return and making a rookie mistake of not falling on the ball?
Again, smart coverage by the Patriots.The first man on coverage drilled the return man so he could not get another chance to recover his own fumble. The second Patriot went right for the ball. Excellent coaching and execution.

Running his mouth and following up with a head butt. He did a Marty meltdown under pressure. This team has as much potential, if not more, than any team in the NFL. Don't squander it on this loss. Learn from it and move on.
