you have heard of ruination? it means San Diego Chargers.
a.z. (December 18, 2005 08:37 PM)
You have to give credit to everyone.. Brees played his part even after losing the momentum with the INT then sack fumble.. he came back with the 50+ yard pass to Keenen deep in our teritory... Tomlinson, although not a huge day on the ground, picked up yards when we needed them.. The receivers did well making plays to come down with some of those catches, the defense played one of the best games i have seen them play since the last outing between these two teams, and Turner.. Mr Turner, Damn, you have my props.
dave (December 18, 2005 08:39 PM)
Kiss my manning! Go Bolt, the whole team!!! Thanks AJ

Yesterday was the eighth Chargers game I have been to over the last 20 years, and they are now 8-0, its time for the team to start sending me to all the games after beating the Colts.
Tom Keil (December 19, 2005 05:47 AM)
As North Carolina's biggest Charger fan, I salute the Charger victory in Indianapolis. The Bolts proved that they can make the playoffs!
Bill (December 19, 2005 05:53 AM)
Defense was impeccable. Shawn Merriman and the defense hats off to you. You are the best in the NFL....Gerry
Gerry (December 19, 2005 07:00 AM)
"Payton, Eli". Yes Dad. Come in for Dinner We can't we have practice so we ca beat the chargers.
Carey Allen (December 19, 2005 07:01 AM)
Hey Dad next time you have some good advice. Shut up.
Carey Allen (December 19, 2005 07:03 AM)
This makes the Miami loss even more frustrating.
I want to see this team every week. Marty!

George Bush announced he's thinking about changing the song lyrics of "Hail to the Chief" to "Hail to the Chargers".
Thanks to the team for the early Christmas present!
GO BOLTS!
Peggy Boersma (December 19, 2005 07:40 AM)
I guess Peyton...with an "E", won't be drinking his "DE CAF!" today after his pounding! It looked like he wanted to cry after at the press conference. SWEET!!
Great job to all...it was a total team effort!
GO CHARGERS!!
Paul (December 19, 2005 08:10 AM)
One down, two more to go. All I know is if the Chargers go 11-5 after playing arguably the toughest schedule in the league in the toughest division in the league and don't make the playoffs, then the NFL's competition committee needs to rethink how teams make the playoffs. Add two more wild cards and drop one preseason game, but do something! Jacksonville in the playoffs, are you kidding me!
Patrick A. Anderson (December 19, 2005 08:27 AM)
There is no better feeling than ruining somebody else's fun- the look on the Colts' faces at the end of the 1st half was grrrrrreaattt! San Dee-Ay-Go, Super Chargers!

To Michael Turner- we know you're good, and we're sorry that you have to be #2, but we love you for hanging in there and being ready any and every time we need you! And boy did we need you! And you sure pulled through for us again! Hats off to Michael Turner!

i can't wait till the Mannings meet in the super bowl and u guys shut up.
love: Giants Fan
Eric (December 19, 2005 09:07 AM)
Yeah, Jammer had a some good plays, but has anyone thought of taping his hands or making him wear mittens? How many times has he been flagged for holding on 3rd-n-miles, only to give the enemy renewed 1st downs?
Jim (December 19, 2005 09:09 AM)
I can't wait till the Mannings meet in the superbowl and u guys aren't laughing
love: Giants Fan
Eric (December 19, 2005 09:09 AM)

Chargers:
Congratulations on a great win, keep it rolling.
Drew Brees YOU want to be the franchise QB for this organization prove it! two more games to go.
To the coaches and players:
Again, please give the effort 100% so we can be in a position to compete in the playoffs for a CHAMPIONSHIP.

Thanks Marty & Company for some great play calling.
This team can beat any team in the NFL on any Sunday.
Lets send a Bolt of Lightning to KC!

David M. Allen (December 19, 2005 10:11 AM)
Giants Fan, you are forgetting something. As it stands now the Patriots should beat the Jags in the 1st rnd and then go into Indy. Hmmm.... I know that you beat us earlier in the year, but Brady doesn't lose to a team twice in a year and he doesn't lose in the post season. You don't think Peyton wasn't sweating watching the Pats kill the Bucs. That was a statement game that was sign, sealed and delivered to Peyton and the Colts...believe me, they noticed.
Anyway, Bolts fan, CONGRATS from a life long Pats fan! Glad someone could take down those SOB's! Really hoping you all make the playoffs as well. Don't think Jax deserves to be there, hopefully you can move in. Best of luck!
Angel (Richmond, VA) (December 19, 2005 10:27 AM)
To the Giant fans that keep speaking here,stop bending over in front of the Manning's.We beat the colts because that sissy is not a BOLT.We know who the best QB is(c-ya Rivers).All yeah one more thing LIGHTS OUT!
GO BOLTS!
#1 Fan from PA. (December 19, 2005 11:02 AM)

casey (December 19, 2005 11:11 AM)
I have a great idea... the Manning Bros. can come play AT San D. for FREE so that they to can feel the winning love......NOT!!!HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA. WE DONT NEED THEM ANY MORE!
Daniel (December 19, 2005 11:19 AM)
NO ONE IS GOING TO THE BEST TEAM IN THE NFL. AND THAT OF COUSE IS THE CHARGERS. DAMN THAT GAME WAS A WIN EVEN B-4 IT STARTED. WELL OFF TO BEAT KC. AGAIN.
CHARGERS # 1 (December 19, 2005 12:06 PM)
GREAT MARTY BALL!!! ELI AND PEYTON YOU CAN'T MESS WITH WEST COAST OFFENSE!
Jimy Ruiz (December 19, 2005 12:16 PM)
Archie Manning is my HERO. NOT!!!!!!!!!
If he wasn't such an ass by stating I don't my son to play for the Chargers (Go play in a farm field you MISSISSIPPI HICK) I wouldn't be so happy right now........You disrespect the BOLTZ and thats what you get........THE CURSE OF THE MANNINGS......Eli came in and got the smack down......Peyton- a little more of the same.....
I am huge BOLTZ fan and they may not make the playoffs.....BUT I really don't think INDY will get past the PATS>>>>>
ONE
TEDDY TOTAL BOLT FAN (December 19, 2005 12:19 PM)

favy baby (December 19, 2005 12:51 PM)
Lets set things straight Indy did not lose,-- they were defeated, Beat, or any other term that denotes that they really tried so to all the TV sports commentators-- The Chargers outplayed the Colts Deal with it..
John (December 19, 2005 01:37 PM)
colt who !!!!! the defeated who !!!!!!! thats right u cant mess with the san diego chargers !!!!!
mr serio (December 19, 2005 02:41 PM)
Kinda funny my sign was first torn by a colts fan but not enough, for it was still legible, "'72 Dolphins you're welcome!" but then an older colts fan took it from my hands lol. they were very butt hurt that they lost. They showed alot of class tooo (sarcasim) met another Charger fan who was soaked due to colts fans spitting beer on him!
Peter (December 19, 2005 02:42 PM)
All I know is one thing...If the Chargers make the playoffs...WATCH OUT...cuz wer'e going all the way baby! Super Bowl or bust 2005! This is our year! No one elses not the colts not the patriots....This is the Chargers year...BELIEVE
Ted G (December 19, 2005 02:45 PM)
I have to say, this sucks. Chargers stomped our team and I already hear fans making excuses. As for me, I'm seriously thinking about becoming a Bolts fan! Any way, good luck San Diego, we aren't going to beat the Pats so go for your Championship fellas!!!!
Long Time Colts fan

The grammars is a filipino things, we always add s's wherever we needs to's.
Johnny G. (December 19, 2005 07:20 PM)
What I really like about this picture is partially cut off...
The scoreboard above them!!!
JG (December 19, 2005 07:28 PM)
hey correct me if I'm wrong, but the Chargers still could win the West IF...
the Raiders beat Denver in Denver ( I know its a longshot but stranger things have happened this season.) and the Bolts beat K.C. ... the Chargers would be only down one win from the Broncos and then face them in San Diego...With a win against Denver both teams would be 11-5... the Bolts would win the tie breaker 'cuz they would have a better division record ...So there is still HOPE...Go BOLTS!!!
Roch.NY BoltFan (December 19, 2005 07:36 PM)
Here we go...
I love charg'n up the Bolts
Jack'n up the Colts..and...

Could this be the Super Bowl Team? I hope so, its been such a loooong time!
Think Bobby Ross is watching?
Go Bolts, Drew Brees Rocked Purdue, Drew Rocked the AFC West now it time to Rock the Rest!

David M. Allen (December 19, 2005 08:43 PM)
LT it makes me sad to see you not score. as much as i LOVED the win over those bastards in Indy, and respect Mike Turner, it should have been you scoring agains okland and against the colts. 3 games without a touchdawn...marty give the man the ball
nick salameh (December 19, 2005 08:53 PM)
I've heard the commentaters on ESPN giving praise where praise is due. They said if the bolts get in watch out. Nobody wants any of that bolts action....
Gerry (December 19, 2005 09:09 PM)
Lets send that in a card to Peyton :P
