Champ Says He'll Be Back

“I’ll be out there this week, one way or another,” Denver Broncos cornerback Champ Bailey told reporters on Monday. “I definitely want to be out there when we clinch this division.”
Shanny stated:“We will see how he practices. He seems to be getting a little bit better. He practiced a little last week. We will get a chance to evaluate him over the next few days.”

Even the Chargers know

Everybody knows that the Bolts stink this year, even it's San Diego Union-Tribune knows it. This was written in the paper by Nick Canepa last Sunday:

Maybe if the Chargers were goofy, if they threw pies and poked each other in the eye and wore huge shoes and red noses, then maybe the masses could get some kind of slapstick thrill out of them. But there is a stark difference between bad and boring, between lively and lifeless, between useful and useless.
And the Chargers are boring, lifeless and useless.
That's how they've looked and performed through most of this disappointing season, but rarely have they been taken to the woodshed. Rarely have they been punk-slapped. Rarely have they had their collective manhood questioned on the field. And, in rocking San Diego 22-16 here Sunday afternoon, that's just what the Atlanta Falcons did. The Falcons didn't find the Chargers boring, lifeless or useless at all. They found them meat. Forget the score, or the relative closeness of it. The Chargers were a slow November turkey. They were a tomato can.
“We got our butts kicked today, it's plain and simple,” Chargers tailback LaDainian Tomlinson was saying after yet another fruitless exercise, in which he ran for 24 yards. LT pointed out that, even with the Falcons guilty of three turnovers and the Chargers none, his team was totally outclassed.
“That's a reflection of the domination, of the butt-kicking we had today,” he said. “We always pride ourselves in being physical. You get out-physicalled, it's hard to swallow.” But you must swallow it and swallow it hard, and what has crawled into their stomachs is a bitter pill of a season all but guaranteed to end in December."
