This team is getting way to much credit. First off, who have they beaten? Here are all their notable victories: Giants week 9 21-20 - They beat a Giants team that was on like a 3 or 4 game losing streak? and they barely beat them Eagles week 10 31-23 -Alrite at the time the Eagles just lost to the Cowboys the week previous, not sure what to say here... Cowboys week 14 20-17- defeat a slumping cowboys team, score was close but the last cowboys td came wit like a minute left Bengals week 15 27-24 - ok this is the biggy, the chargers barely won this game, the bengals tied it with less than a minute left Beating the Bengals and Giants is nothing to brag about. The Cowboys at the time were slumping so once again, nothing to brag about. Not sure what to say about the Eagles game. Heres another thing, in the begining of the season the Chargers lost to both the Steelers and Ravens. Both who had good defenses. If our can defense can play well we can shut them down.
i don't think they are considered overrated, they got their wins that somehow placed them to be the second seed. that's it
Dallas had won 6 of 8 games before the San Diego game, and have won 5 straight since then (including a playoff game), so to call them slumping seems pretty silly to me. Not only don't I think San Diego is overrated, I think that they are probably the best team in the AFC.
Okay and we can make alot worse points about our loses. Chargers are no where near overrated they are a good team.
The Jets have the edge on three sides of the ball. The question is will the Chargers' big targets make big plays to break it open, and how well with Sanchez play?
hard to say the bolts are overrated winning 11 in a row in the NFL. Jets are going to have to play a hell of a road game to win this week.
