Chargers Defense Played Relentlessly!

Source: ESPN by Bill Williamson

The San Diego Chargers is one of, if not, the hottest teams in the NFL entering December. The Chargers has a six gave winning streak, it is 8-3 and has a one game lead over the Denver Broncos in the division. The Chargers look poised to make a run at the No. 2 seed in the AFC playoffs and a first-round bye as well.

The win over the Kansas City Chiefs gave the Chargers a 5-1 record against division opponents this year.  The offense played awesome as always, but I have to give the San Diego Chargers' defense some props. The Chargers' defense has been terrific during this winning streak. It has allowed an opponent to score over 20 points just once and surrendered a total of 17 points in the last two games.

The Chargers' defense has been doing a great job of putting pressures on opposing quarterbacks, which the reason for their success of late. Against the Kansas City Chiefs, the Chargers only had one sack but they made Matt Cassell uncomfortable all game. He was pressured into throwing an interception and two fumbles in which he lost one. The lost fumble was returned by Chargers safety Paul Oliver for a touchdown.

Game Against KC Is Facing Blackout

Okay, I have to vent a little. COME ON CHARGER FANS, it's Friday and the game has not been sold out. Our team is in 1st place, playing a division rival, let's buy those tickets. I got mine and I don't really care if they show it on tv, but we have to represent here. Seems like every home game that there are more fans from opposing team. Let's go Charger fans, lets back our team and buy up those tickets. Hope to see you all there....GO CHARGERSSSSSSS.

It's official, the San Diego Chargers signed veteran free agent tackle Jon Runyan today to the active roster.

Runyan has been one of football's premier offensive tackle throughout his 13 year career. During his career, he has played in two Super Bowls, one with the Tennessee Titans and the other with the Philadelphia Eagles and a Pro Bowl player in 2002. Runyan started every game for the Eagles at right tackle from 2000-08.

This is a great signing, can't wait to see him play.

Chargers going after Runyan!

Awesome news, I read today that the Chargers are trying to sign Jon Runyan, whether this is true or not have not been confirmed. With offensive tackle Jeromey Clary being injured during the Broncos game, which will sideline him indefinitely, the San Diego Chargers are stepping up efforts to sign free-agent offensive tackle Jon Runyan, a source close to the situation said Tuesday.

Runyan was en route to San Diego on Tuesday to see if he could finalize a contract with the Chargers. If this is true, then it would be a great news indeed.
