"Kevin Gilbride, coach, second year
1997: 4-12
1998 Prediction : 3-13"
"Anyone connected with the Chargers now has a much clearer understanding why Buddy Ryan took a punch at Gilbride when they were working together at Houston."
"Gilbride arrived with big ideas but hasn't gotten along with his players, the media or the fans."
"He has a new QB in (rookie) Ryan Leaf."
"Nothing has gone right since Coach Bobby Ross left after '96 season. Gilbride could coax only 17 TD's out of his complicated offense, which was supposed to be a panacea."
Gee...I didn't know he had a hand in the Ryan Leaf deal.
