time for you Bolts fans to make a killing
Pats are favored by 14.5 so it sounds like easy money.
I think the world is run by C- students.

Didn't I hear that about the Colts.
Take the points folks and clean up.

That's too many points IF IF IF IF IF, Rivers, Gates and LT are healthy.
And if the refs aren't in on it like with the Colts...........

Indianapolis sports writer
"This was a great game that was poorly played and poorly officiated. The Chargers' offense looked confused for much of the game, the Colts committed
three turnovers and the refs blew more calls than can be believed in a game of this magnitude. But if the details were ugly, the overall picture was
beautiful. Six lead changes. Nobodies coming in off the bench to lead the team to victory. Momentum changing almost every time possession switched,
and the outcome unclear until the final minute."

That's a pretty astute observation, IMO.
Manning looked even more rattled than Rivers at times. Credit the Bolt "D".

I knew a girl from New England that could play on her knees. I don't know if she was a winner in the traditional sense. She always got the prize
though.
Bolts really showed some character - who knows what's next.

The last time I bet on the Chargers was when they were in the Superbowl and I lost $500. I'll skip the bet this time, but I do hope they win. When
Marty was fired and Norv hired I never gave them a chance to get this far. Go Chargers.

Phil Simms and Shannon Sharpe have said that the Pats will score at least 38 and 40 points on the Charger defense, respectively.
I doubt it.
The only way we win this is if we can get constant pressure up front and our linebackers make tackles on short passes in front of them.
We will score on New England if the main guys are healthy. This looks like the weakest Pat defense of all their past clubs.

If the Chargers can defend against NE the same way they did in the last 7 minutes of the Colts game, then the Chargers will beat NE. If NE can't
complete passes and get intercepted, then how will they score? It's not just about QBs. Weddle's interception was magic. If NE's game plan is to
snuff LT's performance, then the Chargers have already proven they've got 2 more - Sproles and Turner - to keep that game plan from being
accomplished. At the very least, the Chargers won't make it easy for them.

["..And Go Giants too... "]
Now that would be something if the Chargers and the Giants play in the Superbowl. With Eli shunning the Chargers in the draft. And if the Chargers
beat em. Wow, but I dream too much maybe.

That would be the ULTIMATE Super Bowl for Charger fans. Beating Eli's team in that show would be just great. But, if they get there and loose
against him... ugh. The networks would shivver at the thought of that matchup.
We gotta get by NE first - and we can do it!

I seem to recall some Superbowl quality teams that once were up there... was it, was it... yes... the 49ers and the Raiders!! I believe the Chargers
actually played the 49ers in a Superbowl once!? LOL

Heard yesterday that initial predictions were for a HIGH of 16 degrees at game time.
I hope the Chargers arent practicing out here in a Santa Ana condition.

Last update I heard last night was 20 degrees and sunny at game time, going into the high teens during the game. Could start some snow flurries
toward the end of the game.
As for practice - I think most of the major, hurt players are not working out at all for the next couple of days, some not practicing all week
(Gates).

Being from Southern California, they should flood the stands with Jessica Simpsons and be quaranteed a winner.
Plenty of them available and most will volunteer.
