Tomorrow the New England Patriots are poised to make NFL history...again. This'll be the second time they play San Diego & the Chargers feel they're up for the challenge, that the Pats are beatable at their own game (although I hate the fact that some Chargers have been popping off at the mouth all week long about this rematch, etc.) Perhaps, New England may look vulnerable (old-timers in the linebacker corps, for instance), but let's face it: they're on their home turf & primed for a contest which'll make up for lost time last year when Indy won it all.
Right now, it seems Tom Brady & company cannot do any wrong. Sure, the Jaguars stood resilient against the Pats for some time. But if the Bolts are even thinking about an upset, they'll have to play virtually mistake-free football; the Jags made two mistakes which did them in big time & when they were on who knows how many yard-consuming drives. If San Diego wants to upend another outstanding team for the second straight Sunday, they'll have to be at the ready not only on offense (Darren Sproles shined as LT's replacement) but also on defense as well. If they can pressure Brady enough, to make him force his throws, chances are this could be an interesting game. If not, well...wait until next year, guys.
Then again, the Pats are playing at Foxboro...Indy's staying at home this time around...man, I feel New England's going to go undefeated...but first, they've got to knock off San Diego, a team which finds ways to win no matter what. They did it even against Peyton Manning, who threw for 400 yards but shot himself in the foot with those pesky interceptions.
At times like this, nothing is guaranteed.
