Belt Auction - is the chargers still playoff bound?

is the chargers still playoff bound?

easy schedule, ladainian tomlinson,antonio gates,luis castillo,donnie edwards, quetin jammer and a qb who looks like a seasoned veteran with only six games under his belt (rivers) against losing 2 bad ass linebackers (foley ,phillips) and merriman to subsatnce abuse (unproven!) a folding place kicker and marty shottenhiemer as coach.what do you think?

yes, still early in the season
although i disagree w/ rivers looking like a seasoned veteran, i still think they'll be in the playoffs. rivers plays smart but still has trouble w/ reads against tougher defenses. he improves each week though which is good for the bolts.
Yes, no doubt
Yes, I think they'll make it to the Superbowl
Sure...they got a chance.
Yes, Phillips' injury is not as bad as they first thought, he should only be out for 2 weeks, Merriman's appeal isn't until Nov. 7, so he will play the next 2 games, so they won't be without both linebackers for any games. Rivers, while he's no vet, is not making many rookie mistakes, and by playoff time could be talked about as one of the leagues best QB's (if he keeps playing the way he is now). The Chargers are still the most complete team in football, they will win the AFC West.
they will make the playoff as a wildcard coming 2nd in their division to Denver, but they won't be a contender to go to the Super Bowl....Sorry Chargers fans.....
6 weeks in and you proclaiming them playoff bound? Still along way to go and many things that can happen. Bad games, bad calls, injuries, and it seems like the Chargers have looked good early in other seasons only to fall off dramatically the second half, it's still MartyBall afterall.
