I like how the crowd is booing.

Kicking the FG was the right decision.

SD gets a field goal.

6-3 Titans early in the 3rd quarter.

I was actually cheering for IND for that reason alone.

10-6 Chargers! Rivers to Jackson.

4X4 · 01-06-2008, 04:40 PM

That guy in the stupid rogers commercial sure is unfortunate looking....

OILFAN #81 · 01-06-2008, 04:46 PM

10-6 Chargers end of 3rd quarter.

Titans are in the red zone to start the 4th quarter though (1st and 10 at the SD 17).

OILFAN #81 · 01-06-2008, 04:50 PM

Bah ha! Bironas missed a 38 yard FG.

10-6 Chargers still in the 4th.

OILFAN #81 · 01-06-2008, 05:07 PM

17-6 Chargers! LT with a 1 yd TD.

HOOT, looks like the Pats get the Jags, and not us!

GirlySports · 01-06-2008, 05:21 PM

It's remarkable how miss FGs change games.

Yesterday with washington and today with tennessee, a miss FG and the teams fall apart.

Sylvanfan · 01-06-2008, 05:35 PM

I guess the Norv does have it. LOL.

I guess I will just have to cheer for SD

corporatejay · 01-06-2008, 05:41 PM

ugh, not a good weekend for me.

2/4 on my picks but unfortunately no one would bet any money on my two wins.

oh well.

And i'll be cheerin for the Jags! Honestly though, as I said from the start I think we will see each other in the AFC Championship. I'm not getting ahead of myself though. The Chargers are a good team and it will be a good test for us next week at the RCA dome. Everyone needs to be ready and we need to limit their rushing game.

Matchups next week:

AFC:
Jacksonville (5) @ New England (1)
San Diego (3) @ Indianapolis (2)

NFC:
NY Giants (5) @ Dallas (1)
Seattle (3) @ Green Bay (2)

I'm just giving you a hard time, I have nothing against the Colts. SD seems to be coming on but I would think Indy is just going to kill them. SD has a horrible road record only beat one playoff team and that was TEN.

Wins: OAK, TEN(OT), KC, DEN
Losses: NE, GB, MIN, JAC

It seems they can only beat bad teams on the road considering they are a 7-1 @ Home.

Weird. The teams in the west play before the teams in the east.

OILFAN #81 · 01-06-2008, 07:17 PM

SD/IND game. Some places have it listed at 10 am MST on Sunday while others have it listed at 11 am MST. The other 3 games are constant everywhere.

flames_1987 · 01-06-2008, 09:13 PM

Colts have to be ready to take on a very physical defense from the Chargers, but I'm confident the Colts are good enough to beat the Chargers and more importantly shut Phillip Rivers up. The one thing that scares me the most is the Colts dominating on both sides of the ball but our damn special teams coverage unit laying an egg once again against the Chargers.

San Diego is still a threat, but it's very hard not to look two weeks from now when it's looking more and more like a re-match of the AFC Championship from last year.

I could care less if the Colts or Jags would have won so long as one of them would go on to beat the Pats.

SD made such a bad decision to go with Rivers over Brees and then choosing Turner to replace Schottenheimer. They are totally wasting having a great defense and LT by both those decisions.

The wild card Patriots were all the Colts could handle last season at home. This season the Colts will need to travel to Foxboro to try and beat arguably one of the best teams in NFL history. Chances for a return trip to the Super Bowl? Slim to none.
