According to an AP article I found on BoltTalk.com, Ladainian Tomlinson is preaching caution against looking too far ahead in 2007. He states that he believes the Chargers lost in the first round of the playoffs last year because they were looking ahead to the next game, and not focused enough on the task at hand. Though everyone in Chargers camp expects the Bolts to be playing deep into the playoffs again this year, Tomlinson is taking a very “one game at a time” approach to the season.
Tomlinson is being a bit kind to his former coach, it would appear. While perhaps it was a lack of focus that kept the Chargers from pushing through to the second round of the playoffs, one cannot ignore the fact that some late game “Martyball” didn’t help the Chargers to beat the Patriots in the 2006 playoffs. However, under a new coach, all the preseason articles about the Chargers seem to point to one thing - a team on a mission to win a Super Bowl. Look for San Diego to come out swinging early and to not let up all year.
