Hey who knows, a lot of the conspiracy theories turn out to be true these days! PS the earth is definitely flat, they just throw a tarp over the sun every now and again to convince us it is round :)
How Cam Cameron Became Our Head Coach
- Thread starter phinsforlife
- Start date
The Chargers only had a double-digit lead for less than 2 minutes late in the 2nd Quarter. Rivers attempted 32 passes and the Chargers backs combined for 29 rush attempts. Balanced attack it would appear.
Brady attempted 51 passes, and the Pats RB combined for 19 rush attempts.
IMO, what cost the Chargers the game was when Marlon McCree intercepted Brady, returned it 3 yards, and fumbled it back to the Pats. They then scored a TD five plays later and tacked on a 2-point conversion to tie the game at 21. If McCree had not fumbled the Chargers would likely have held on to win. They lost 24-21.
The Pats seemed to lead a charmed life sometimes. That game was one example. Another was vs KC several years ago, when the Chiefs were protecting a narrow lead and Brady threw an int, but Dee Ford of KC was very obviously lined up offsides. So the int was nullified and the Pats went on to score, and eventually won the game in OT. Ford had 13 sacks and 7 FF that season but KC traded him to SF for a 2nd round pick two months later.

Looking at the play by play none of that really adds up. Victims mentality.

We need better LB's
Sore loser. Patriots were the better team.

Please don’t make us relive that madness!
Then there appeared after the game that video clip of Marty Shottenheimer telling McCree during warm ups that when he intercepts the pass at the end of the game to just take a knee.
It was the most prophetically bizarre thing ever. I tried to find a clip but failed.

Turn those frowns upside down. Good thing Ginn Wasn't that great. Imagine trying to negotiate a new contract with the entire Ginn family.
The only thing that is relevant concerning Cam Cameron is that he was way over his head as an NFL head coach and Huizenga was smart enough to realize this and fired him after one season.
Parcells actually fired him after he had evaluated him.

This is dumb.
Chargers only had a double digit lead during 1 NE possession in the 2nd quarter. NE scored a td on that possession.
Exlude pass attempts during the 1 minute drill to get into field goal range, and the Chargers had more rushing attempts than passing.
The world is not flat. Sadly, more people probably believe so now than at any point in human history.

True but Huizenga hired Parcells and gave him the authority to hire and fire anyone in the football part of the organization. If Huizenga had thought Cameron should be retained as the HC, it’s doubtful he would have hired Parcells to begin with.

Thank goodness that miserable era is over. The pats deserve to wander in the wilderness for the next 100 years for the 20 year run they had.
