No if Rivers is looking up at the lights. Rivers has to get the ball to Gates. A rookie (first season) QB is a dream for the Pats defense.

Right you are!! I realized that, and made the change. As I've said before, I don't see many games, being over-seas. By the grace of Heaven for some reason the cable network I'm on here in northeast Europe recently started broadcasting NFL games !!!

But only a few each week of the reg season, so saw the Pats only once. Seems like they're going to show *all* the playoff games, so that's great!!

But, hey, Brees *was* doing all right as a Bolt last year!!

Im sure, thats why he made the probowl. Thats why hes done something no Charger QB has done in 20+ years and thats sweep the Broncos.

Only thing im worried about is the 1st quarter. He tends to get happyfeet. But it usually doesnt hurt us too bad. During the 4th quarter hes lights out though.
Best 4th quarter QB in the NFL right now.

Pretty smart "idiot" to go 14-2 this year (!!)

Don't sell the Bolts short; they've got talent.

I just want to point out how much Marty's role has been minimized on this current Chargers team. Cam Cameron designs the offensive gameplan and calls the plays. Marty has said many time this year he doesn't call the plays. He has input but he's also told Cam, "you don't have to listen to me, you call the plays you want to call." This is the main reason so many observers have said Martyball is dead. It's also one reason Cam is one of the top head-coaching prospects this offseason.

Marty's a very good coach when it comes to getting a team focused and prepared emotionally. But he's not our Bill Belichik. Our strategists are Cam on offense and Wade Phillips on defense. Marty doesn't even wear a headset 90% of the time on the sidelines.

If our gameplan sucks next week Marty will get the blame, but this time it won't be his gameplan that's at fault. But I doubt our gameplan will suck. Teams have been able to hold our offense in check for stretches and have been able to move on our defense in stretches, but we always find ways to adjust and make plays--especially in the second half.

Thats why were 9-7 and missed the playoffs right? LOL
We returned 20 of our 21 starters, its the same team this year as it was last year.

Brees is a choker in big games, the evidence is how he and the Saints finished the season this year.

2. Gates matches up well with your slow linebackers too, and it doenst help that Harrison wont play, or if he does he wont be at 100.

3. Rivers doesnt get sacked very often, the pass protection has been A+ this year.

4. Chargers set the record for sacks in a single season this year, we have the best pass rush in the game.

5. Its in San Diego, itll be loud and crazy and make it even harder for your mismatched offense.
we've versed extremely fast RBs..its not a foot race..its the trenches..if our DL gets it done..our LBs dont have to worry about chasing LT all over.

stopping a person isnt always physical matchups..what scheme we put together and disguising what we want to do aswell as pressuring Rivers can definatley stop Gates

Rivers has been sacked more than Brady i believe..so if u say your pass procection has been great because the sack #s..then we can say the same

we've played in tough places every year..its nothing new


your being very biased. your saying "our pass rush is best in league" .. well our run d is 1 of the best in the league so whats to say we cant stop LT if u can stop Brady?


we'll see how it goes..all i know is that SD fans are very stupid and ignorant from what i hear on different boards..i havent personally encountered problesm but other people say SD has 1o f the worst fans :\

Money in the bank. I've only seen Rivers a couple times this year, but he wasn't all that impressive.

Thats what im saying, our Oline has been magnificent, and LoNeal is obviously the beat at what he does. Once LT gets by the Dline its gonna be 10 yards easy, and even more.

Another problem for you, your gonna have to scheme against Cam Camerons unpredictable offense, no one has done it successfully this year.

Rivers doesnt throw picks though, Brady will take that gunslinger mentality to heart and chuck it down the field. Often risking much more then a sack. Rivers knows when to tuck it.

Because Gates will force you to back off the line, hes too quick for your big slow D. Ive said this before.

To round it off, its all about matchups, and the Chargers have a BIG advantage over you. Some teams just match up well against us, but you dont.

Well ive made some good points right? And I know weve been ignorant on othe boards, but weve been right havent we? Yep, my point exactly.
