Penny has done like a complete 180, that 30 yard run of his was just amazing, I thought we were going to have another beast quake but sadly he got tripped up.

I felt like he was more gassed than anything at that point, needs to learn to control himself still. He's getting there.

I think that's 5 straight games with 150+.

Let's give our running game some love? When Schotty said during off season that he wants to run even when opposing defense knew we are running, he was widely laughed at by the national media. I am loving it when we could run and run successfully when defense had 8 in the box.

We had three backs, all experienced 100+yards per game, each had something different to contribute. Our O line, was rating the bottom in league before the season starts, now a hole opening machine. Fant has become a one of the most effective blocking TE.

I think most defense rosters were designed to stop passing, they knew we are running at them, but they don't have the personnel to counter it.

If only we could run like this the last two years.

I'm not sure why he would be laughed at. During his father's tenure in San Diego and in 2006 in particular, the Chargers were doing that on a regular basis.
