What a great game last night! The Chargers proved that they are truly a mediocre team that needed the unlikely occurrence of stellar special teams play to win this game against a clearly less imposing Colts team that is barely a shell of themselves with all of the injuries. Even after a horrific 6 INT game from Manning, they had a shot at completing the comeback, but came up just short. Great Game!

But a small tid-bit of commentary kind of took away from the potential “classic-ness” of this game. Not sure if it was just my ever ready ears, but did you pick up on an “insensitive” comment by the Hall of Famer, John Madden. Well, during a segment which Al Michaels was talking about the lack of experience at WR on the Colts squad, NBC displayed some photos of Wayne, Moorehead and Thorpe. The focus was that Wayne had 400+ career receptions, while Moorehead had only 25+ and Thorpe had like 2 or so. Anyway, completely out of left field John Madden interrupted Al Michaels and said something to the effect of, “Moorehead will keep his eye on the ball.” No doubt referring to Moorehead’s distinct eyes. I would expect this from a Dennis Miller type, but from a Hall of Fame coach that will possibly become a Hall of Fame broadcaster, I found this to be very unprofessional and very distasteful. John, you owe Mr. Moorehead an apology. You should know better…………..(now, I’m getting off my soap box)
