Photo: Marty strikes???

San Diego quarterback Philip Rivers fumbles as he is hit by Mike Vrabel and Richard Seymour on a fourth-down play.

We were up here wondering about Marty Schottenheimer's decision not to try a field goal on fourth-and-11 from the 30. Pro Bowl kicker Nate Kaeding was making kicks from 60 yards with ease during warmups.

But it gets worse -- colleague Karen Guerigian of the Boston Herald tells us that Kaeding hasn't missed a field goal here at Qualcomm in TWO YEARS.

So instead, they go for it, and Rivers is strip-sacked by Mike Vrabel...

Marty strikes again??
