Me too. I'm hoping it's reverse. Charger fan is the most insufferable fan in the league for fans of a team that's never won anything. Cub fan is almost as bad, but their team actually has won it all, albeit not for a century........

Dunder- The Chargers are suffering the same affliction as the Cowboys: an assistant coach posing as a head coach. Neither Norv Turner nor Wade Phillips will ever lead a team to a Superbowl.

No kidding!  The Chargers have company in the Patriots in getting smacked by the 'fins. At least the Bolts weren't fooled by college trick plays FIVE TIMES! Anybody catch the Indy/Texans game? If you Tivoed it, just fast forward to the final three minutes or so. I was there, and it was a classic Colts comeback. Reminded me of Tampa Bay a few years ago, almost,  .

I try to keep the insufferability to a minimum. Fans I dislike, in order: Patriots, Maple Leafs, Red Sox.

Read my mind, but Red Wings fans have to fit in there somewhere.

The Patriots loss obviously. They looked much worse against the Dolphins, who historically give the Chargers fits in Miami.

i think the NFC West is right up there except (i cant believe im going to say this) the Cardinals... im dumbfounded by the Hawks' defense so far this year - same personnel, same coaches, just giving up big plays like it's 04'  the offensive struggles were somewhat anticipated, but, ehhh... why am i even trying! hopefully they'll be able to pull themselves together against the Pack at home

I think we're going to find out if there is even a glimmering of hope for the rest of the season, if Holmgrem can't get the Hawks fired up to play his old team, at home, to fall 1-4 I think you can safely call it a season.

The Vikings received an early Christmas present from the Saints. But an ugly win is a win. If the Saints do not make the play-offs, they will be looking at the early losses at Denver and against Minnesota.

Russel is terrible. The Raiders would be better off with Walters, and he sucks. Just more examples of the difference between the pro game and college.
Remember to always aim high, that way you won't get any on your shoes.

Bears stopped them in the red zone and Atlanta had to settle for 4 field goals. If they could have turned one of those into a TD they would have won the game. WOW.
Oh no. I spoke too soon. 11 seconds was all they needed to pull it out. What a game!!!
LMAO! You're never out until you're out! Unfreaking believable. Falcons rip the hearts out of the Bears fans with 1 second left.
