It's not the claim of expectations where we differ. It's the comments comparing him to Smith. CK is locking on to his receivers and would have probably been picked 3-4 times by now if he was facing a decent defense.
His receivers have bailed him out on forced passes more than once, no doubt. However, he definitely moved onto his second/third reads a few times and obviously chose to tuck and run. I will admit that I have not seen many SF games this year, so my Smith comment was coming from his past body of work.
I don't care about the #1 seed. I just want a bye, infact I would prefer the #2seed.
I don't want to go on the road for two games to try and get to the SB. I do believe while Brady has been the QB, he has always reached the SB with having the bye. Wild card weekend hasn't worked all that well for the Patriots!!
Baltimore still has to play Pitt, Washington, NYG, Cinci, and Denver. They will lose a few games still, but the Chargers really need to nut up and win this f'n game.
