Nate Kaeding, who was perfect this season, chose the wrong time to miss his first field goal. The Eagles got lucky having blocked the kick and returning it for a touchdown. The Eagles did their job today, the Chargers didn't, especially Ladanian Tomlinson, who was at below 0 in rushing for much of the game.
I hope they do better next week.

At 2-4, they're not much better than the Packers. I'm starting to wonder if last season was a fluke.

Actually it's 3-4 but still. I can't say that they aren't doing well because they are playing tough teams because they beat the Patriots three weeks ago and they did well against the Steelers despite losing a close game to them.
If they had Tomlinson running the first two games they would have probably been better. One thing the Chargers need to work on are keeping late leads. A few of their losses have come when the opposing team came back in the 4th quarter.

Aside from Ladanian Tomilinson, the Chargers shut down the Eagles in Philly. One of the Eagles touchdown drives was bs, because there was a bogus unneccessary roughness call.

Please don't give the Eagles any credit. They didn't do sh*t and got another lucky a$$ win. Those a$$holes should be 1-5 right now. Even though LT was shutdown, the Eagles would have still lost if that FG wasn't blocked. And ESPN didn't help the Chargers chances by calling LT the Michael Jordan of the NFL all week before the game. You know the Eagles Defense heard that and if they didn't hear it someone told them. So I knew LT wasn't going to do anything today because he was HYPED up week.

Even the Philly Media admitted that was one of the worst scoring drives in NFL History.
