2015 NFL Preseason Week 3 – The Seahawks vs The Chargers

Week 3 of the preseason saw the Seattle Seahawks fly into San Diego to play the Chargers in a titanic battle of…okay…it was just another preseason game. The defending Super Bowl Champions…uh…Super Bowl runner ups survived the unseasonably hot weather to prevail in the last minute on a 60 yard field goal by Steven Hauschka, 16-15.

If you like kicks, this was a game for you as three kickers combined to score six field goals. Yawn. Me? I like kicks of a different sort.

The San Diego Chargers honored the men and women in uniform at this past Saturday’s game, holding their 27th annual Salute to the Military celebration. The Charger Girls were adorned in military themed uniforms to cheer on the boys in blue, but it was to no avail as the Chargers succumbed to the defending Super Bowl Champion Seahawks.

Side note: I never played a down of football in my life, but I am smart enough to know that if you are on the opponent’s one yard line in the Super Bowl with seconds left in the game and you have a player nicknamed “Beastmode”, you feed him the ball…on second down…on third down…and on fourth down.

I am a proud San Diego Chargers season ticket holder and a Charger Girl fan…like most of you reading this article. So let’s kick off this week’s coverage of the Charger Girls with the captains: Tawnie, Katelyn, Kayla, and Tina.

This week’s Charger Girl of the Day is a second year veteran who really caught my eye this year…introducing Delani!

Okay, let’s begin our regular coverage by introducing the girls by military service. First up, Tawnie’s Army: Tyler, Gabrielle, Elizabeth and Devin.

We continue with Katelyn’s Marine Corps: Colette, CGOTD Delani, Jenna, Allie, Jayme, and Taylor.

Up next…Kayla’s Air Force: Rebecca, Bridget J., Teran, Brittney, Roxi, and Angelica.

And how can we forget Tina’s Navy: Karissa, Shelbi, Hailey, Aussie Angie, Lauren, and Whitney.

And here’s a few photos of the Charger Girls performing during a quarter break.

There’s only one preseason game left before we kick it off for real. Thank goodness. No more fumbling, bumbling, stumbling football for me. Give me the real stuff.

Oh and one last thought…if the Seahawks find themselves in the Super Bowl again…with the ball on the one yard line…in the fourth quarter with minutes left to go…GIVE IT TO BEASTMODE AND RIDE HIM ALL THE WAY INTO THE ENDZONE! You listening Pete Carroll? You listening Darrell Bevell?
