That means the Bolts will win.

Asante Samuel literally had the worst game he has had in 2 seasons yesterday. And Hobbs was hurt and played very little in nickel and dime coverages.

God forbid we actually have a non Colts-Patriots game for once.

Honestly, I think it'll be 38-24 NE. Close game for 3 quarters though.

Can Phillip Rivers out douche the King Douche (Rodney Harrison)?

How has the better performance enhancers, merrimen or Harrison?

I think the Chargers has some shot. I think those dump offs to Sproles, Turner + hopefully LT can be very useful.

I also hope that Harrison gets hit by a bus sometime during the game.

The way I see it Belichick is going to concentrate on the SD run game and shut that down which would make Rivers (or Volek) throw the ball to win. This was the plan that he used against Philly and well....Philly passed the ball very well except for those bonehead mistakes by Feely.

So anything is possible. Realistically tho, I don't see SD beating NE.

Goes farther back than that. This started 3 years ago when we went up to their house kicked the **** out of the them. 41 - 14 or something like that. Our players were talking **** to there fans. Marty had the nerve to claim the pats were really banged up. Brady gets all bent out of shape "worry about your own team" it's been on ever since. I think we will meet them again next season as well
