Best Charger game ever

A lot of fans think the 2 OT playoff game in Miami to beat the Dolphins was the best ever...It was a great game.

The next season the Chargers played the defending SB 49ers in the reg season. THAT was the most entertaining game. Dan Fouts & co against Joe Montana in what should have been the Superbowl the prior Jan.

I'm hoping by using the dashes CBS doesn't scramble all of this

Guess You'll hafta buy the book

CBS sportsline strikes again...

What you hafta remember is in those days Fouts vs Montana was like Peyton Manning vs Tom Brady today.

I don't think the Colts and Patriots have ever played such a high scoring close game...

Truly amazing game to watch. I remember thinking whoever has the ball last is going to win. Each team only punted once. Neither defense (and they were both decent) could stop the other teams high powered offense.

Go Chargers

It's gotta be watching the Bolts squeek out the win over the Steelers in the AFC championship game back in '95 (1994 season). I can still see Neil O'Donnell's pass being batted down at the goalline and the look on the Pittsburgh fans faces. Priceless. Kinda like the look on our faces 2 weeks later, but for those 2 weeks, it was great to be a Chargers fan!

Yep those 2 weeks were the best. Even tho deep in my heart I knew it would take a miracle of monumental proportions for my Chargers to beat the 49ers. They had talent like our Chargers have now...amazing

Dan Fouts and his cronies would be considered to be one of the best eras if they had made the SB after the 79 season and the 80 and 81 seasons. They should have / could have been the only team to win 3 straight superbowls. They were that good. Flukie stuff happens.

Go Chargers

Having a defense that can't hold the other team under 30 points a game is not a fluke. As good as the Chargers offense was back then, the defense was equally as bad. They had a few good players on D, but as a unit, they were a joke.
