CHARGERS VS. PATRIOTS WEEK 2 GAME OF THE WEEK..2011

Chargers VS. Patriots Week 2 -Game of the Week 2011..
  This could possibly be the Game of the week and after its all said and done the Game of the Year. I know its only the 2nd game of the season, But This is a statement game, Both teams if they play like their capable should win their divisions and have have outstanding records. They both have elite Qb's they have Play makers at key positions and they both are coached very well. The edge going to the Patriots because Bill Belichick is a genius, with some bad luck lately. Like last year 14-2 , the best offense , with the MVP qb Tom Brady, but fail , yes fail to make it to AFC Championship.. Defense or lack of one,. They have old , free agent questionable pass rushers, Albert "attitude " Haynesworth, Shaun Ellis and Andre Carter, but this young secondary is getting torched , I mean Chad" who are you? Henne amasses over 400 yds passing , is disturbing. especially Division rivals , you expect a better understanding of a teams weaknesses or strengths. The Chargers are better than the Dolphins and have play makers at all the key positions, Jackson at wide out, Tolbert and Mathews at Rb, gates (possibly the games best )at tight end , and Bob Sanders(defensive player of the year 07, and Shaun Philips on defense. I expect a high scoring game , but the loss of the Patriots Center Koppen and two other linemen Vollmer and Wendell , makes the offensive line vulnerable to the Veteran defense of the Chargers, who will bring it to the Patriots. If this game turns into a track meet I like the Chargers chances, especially on a short week and a hurt offensive line and a young and vulnerable defense. I see a high scoring affair , decided by a couple of defensive plays like a fumble , interception by the Patriots late in the game and the chargers offense just being too tall , too  fast and too  strong for the patriots secondary. The Chargers have too many weapons for that young secondary.. Jackson , Floyd, Gates , Tolbert, Mathews, Walters, Mcmichael, Sperry , but I expect Coach Belichick to use a ball control offense , no huddle , short passes and runs , and hope keeping rivers on the sidelines , will protect this young and inexperienced defense protected, but the Chargers quick strike ability and that opportunistic defense will cause turnovers and poor decision(s) fumble or interception thrown by Tom Brady will be the difference. The pressure is on the Patriots, they have been embarrassed the past few  seasons, undefeated season and losing to the Giants in Super Bowl and last years beat down by their rivals and trash talking NY Jets. This will be fun and edge of your seat nail biting thriller , that will come down to one or two big plays. Final score  52- 45 , Chargers scoring the game winning td in the final minutes. Rivers to Gates..The winner  hosting the AFC Championship  Game and earning that Trip to Indy for the Super Bowl.. Are you ready ? Until my next sports blog.. Take Care ..
