Honestly, i want real answers as to why they lost. If you say the refs you should not even bother.

I think it was a poorly played game for both teams. Way too many mistakes. But I think the biggest reason the Chargers lost was because Marlon Mcree made the mistake of intercepting the pass on 4th down instead of batting it down, like everyone is taught to do on fourth down. If he does that, the Chargers get the ball. They weren't moving it very well at that point, so they probably would have punted and made the Pats drive 70+ yards for the score instead of 20 + yards they ended up going. That would have also given the Chargers defense a little breather and who knows how they would have responded.

Marty is the reason the Chargers lost. You have the league MVP on your team. Just hand him the ball over and over again. LT had almost 150 yards rushing and receiving at halftime out-gaining the patriots. Second half he had 30 yards and didn't touch the ball as much. Chargers coach instead put the game in the hands of a first year starter (he didn't do to bad). All in all its a typical Marty coached game in the playoffs.
And me being a pats fan i have to say we stole one in SD.

Parker had a shitty game. he had 2 drops that would have been 1st downs in the 1st quarter. He also fumbled a punt.
When McCree fumbled that interception, Bolts had an opportunity there.
Merriman had ZERO sacks.
Chargers could have had 1 more play w/ 8 sec. to go. they should have thrown a short sideline pass, instead they missed a FG.
