My reasoning why he's a weak link is he's not going to be as mobile as he normally is this comming week thanks to the bruised knee. The pats are going to bring some heat and force Rivers to make some quick throw which will most likely cause at least 1 turnover. All the pats need is 1 turnover to change the momentum their way. The pats got that one turnover aginst the jags early in the first half this weekend and that mistake forced a momentum swing and the pats never looked back. The chargers have a chance, they are going to have to play mistake free football, cause if they cause a turnover they won't have a chance. I think the game is going to be a hell of a lot closer then their first meeting earlier this year. I'm looking forward to the game, and if the chargers do pull the upset I'll post and take my punishment.
lets be honest, the nation wants to see the pats vs the packers. the nation as a whole doesn't care about the giants or chargers, they are not the sexy pick. Since the colts and cowboys got knocked out most of the nation wants the pats and pack and I would think the refs might make more favorable calls for both teams. You saw what happened to the chargers, colts got all the calls their way.
