I was watching some ESPN today and listened to everyone on there say San Diego has zero chance of winning this week. Ironic, considering they all said San Diego had zero chance of winning last week, as well. I don't think too many people saw the Chargers beating the Colts. Nobody sees them beating the Pats either, but this is the time of year where crazy things happened. If somebody out there has a perfect playoff bracket going, congratulations.
Looking at the lines, we have a 2 TD spread in the AFC game and a 1 TD spread in the NFC game. I'm still undecided on the Packers-Giants and need to watch some more highlights of the Giants-Cowboys game. However, 14 points seems like a lot for the Pats to cover. Their offense was next to perfect last week and they beat Jacksonville by 11. San Diego, injured as they may be, still field a decent offense. When these teams played in week 2, San Diego didn't have Chambers and it felt like the team was still trying to get chemistry together. If they're healthy enough to play good football, they should be able to hang around within a touchdown or two. They will need more fluke plays and timely turnovers if they want any chance of pulling a second consecutive upset.
Other than the games, not much more exciting news yet. Coaches are being fired and interviewed, but there hasn't been anything too surprising. The biggest news during the week will be the injuries to the Chargers and the Giants. Both of these teams need to hope for some medical miracles if they want to make it to the superbowl.
