I'm not even mad the Bolts lost on sunday to the Stillers. I'm upset, sure, because they could have won the game. But let's be honest, to have expected the Chargers to roll into the 'Burgh, a city they've never won in during the regular season, and beat the Stillers in a snowstorm, would have been courting complete fantasy. As a fan that's a game you put in the probable loss column and then root like heck for a surprise victory. The Bolts had a chance to deliver on that surprise but didn't get the job done, mostly due to a few great plays by Troy Polamalu and a few extremely dicey plays by Phil Rivers.
What really got me angry is that yesterday the Broncs' win in Atlanta. Are you kidding me? You can't beat Denvers team on its fifth string running back on your home turf? Unacceptable.
There are many reasons why the Bolts likely aren't making the playoffs this season, but two of the biggest reasons may end up being the failures of Cleveland and Atlanta to win home games against the Broncos.
