12. After the loss Rams guard Rodger Saffold said his team has "the best mentality in the league." Adding: "We always come back, ready to fight. This game, there were so many reasons for us to get blown out. But we just kept fighting, kept pushing ... we're not out of anything. I love this team."
This is the main issue. Too many missed tackles to even count.Missed tackles.

We better beat Oakland next week.. If we lose, may as well just tank it so we can draft Winston or something. haha.
Yeah, currently we hold the 11th pick in the draft. So either we could get a very good player or trade back, collect more picks, and still possibly draft Hundley.If we got that pick I'd trade it
This was an ugly game. Both teams have the other team opportunities. Hill did not have a good game. The worst game IMHO belonged to GR. His play lead directly to a 14 point swing in the game. As I posted on another thread he plays LT at times like a future LG. hopefully he improves over the next 5 games.Whatever!
The way Schotty opened up the second half killed our our momentum just like it did against KC after the Davis pick. Bottom line is our defense came up big when it needed to, offense came alive when Schotty finally let the WR's run (why so late?), and Hill made the worste decision of his life.
It's really quite simple, the Defense ran into a top notch OB, their team was at home and desperate for a win, sometimes you just have to tip your hat to the other team, especially when that team features a top notch proven NFL QB. (which btw, their QB was better than ours, way better, a blind man could see that was the difference this particular game)
The dogging of Shotty is almost getting ridiculous, really makes me wonder sometimes...yeah, yeah, yeah I too was hoping for a run (didn't want to leave Rivers with any time) THE GUYS ON THE PLAYING FIELD DIDN'T EXECUTE THE PLAY, some of you guys wanna blame the OC then fine, I guess that's what beer drinking fans do. The fact is they came oh so close to pulling off a great win, just couldn't close it.
Next up the Raiders...
"9. The officiating crew was a clown show that really took something away from the joy of watching a wildly competitive game that featured many twists and turns."
This sums up the way that i feel about the NFL as a whole right now. Totally disgusted by the officials.
The SEC has better officials than the NFL does. I'm to the point of not being able to stomach watching them screw up every game!
Saying that the players didn't execute is a completely facile statement to me in that context. Exactly which plays that didn't work couldn't you say that about? While I agree with the other points you made I can't go along with this at all. Whether the play call was good or not the players still have to execute. Proper execution has absolutely nothing to do with whether it was the proper percentage play to call or not.OC--LeftCoast being the lucky one:

The author is clearly baiting fans with comment number 13. Why on god's green earth wouldn't team officials meet and greet LA based fans? Are we lepers?
That's it in a nutshell. There was a thread last week that talked about the improvement in the defense. I posted the biggest improvement was in the tackling. Any scheme will look bad when they miss tackles. As well as they have played lately, Sunday was an example of poor tackling and it then makes it look like the scheme somehow is at fault.Missed tackles.
YET!!!Yet.
I believe there was more than just a little 'Ref Factor' involved in the Chargers win too!!JMOIt's really quite simple, the Defense ran into a top notch OB, their team was at home and desperate for a win, sometimes you just have to tip your hat to the other team, especially when that team features a top notch proven NFL QB.
