They did look horrible against Oakland. I thought maybe the odd time of the game contributed to San Diego's sloppy performance.
san diego has similar psyche to the cowboys. they play differently after losses.

You gotta give rivers some credit for being as good as he is with that throwing motion/release. So awkward looking.

SD is mercurial. But I suspect that OAK was the beneficiary of a fairly textbook trap game. Whether they should have been or not, they were up for us at home. Then spit the bit on the road in OAK, and playing well again tonight against a good Colts team.

This wouldn't be the kind of game you'd expect San Diego to win. The AFC West is tough this year. They account for all our losses. I'm anxious to see how we perform against some of the better teams in the NFC.

From what I saw it looked like the chargers beat the colts the same way they beat us, controlling the clock

This game was a prime example of..........on any given Sunday. Only a few teams win consistently these days.

The Chargers and the Cowboys are the same team this year. We play better than expected when we're supposed to lose and play worse than expected when we're supposed to win; just like the Chargers.

Romo and Rivers are eerily similar. Both are heavily scrutinized from week to week and have put up great numbers throughout their careers. Both guys have almost polar opposite performances from week to week. It's just mind boggling how similar these two teams are.

We've lost to two 6-0 teams, and beaten the bad teams we've played. The only possible inconsistent game we had this season was the loss to the Chargers, who happened to have been on one of their hot games, as you mentioned.

I think we're actually a really consistent team. We just can't stop really good QBs when we have to.

The "great" Andrew Luck that everyone has been praising didn't look so great tonight.

I have always thought that SD was our doppelganger in the AFC. They both seem to have the same problems, ups and downs year after year.

With all due respect, there is NOTHING consistent about this team. Based on our defensive performances and the way our offense plays like the 1999 Rams one week and then can't score a single point in the second half the next week.

Welcome to the NFL. When it comes to wins and losses, though, we've lost to two very good teams, beaten two bad ones, and got beat by one on the road who had the exact same record we do.
