O-line: Chargers get no respect

Thought this was funny.
Saw this breakdown of the playoff teams rank in offensive lines. Pats are # 1, of course, but check out the Chargers logo where they were ranked.....Sorry, San Diego!

Too funny. I guess ESPN thinks we own them too!

This is a pretty superficial O Line analysis though. First of all let's hope our OL is healthy. I think they will be - no matter how bad Belichick wanted 16-0 had the Giants game been a playoff game I think we'd have had all members of the O Line available to us... yes, that means I think BB was "resting" players in a "meaningless" game - which should tell you how much drive this team will have in the playoffs!

But even when healthy our OL - and especially Light, has a problem with speed rushers - not so much big guys, but quick guys.

That's why the Colts are so often a tough matchup but less so with other teams.

I'm not really up to speed about other speed rushers in the playoffs but I'm sure that will be discected shortly.
