They will eat him alive. Baltimores defense can hold New England down however. I would prefer the Chargers win this game but I dont think either Baltimore or LA are some crap team like we often see in the divisional round in New England.
What the hell kind of idiotic play calling is that? Three straight runs up the middle when that is the strength of the Baltimore defense?
I was thinking the same thing, to me it was 4 down territory also. So I think they should have passed on 3rd and then perhaps run on 4th down.
The Chargers are choking. No killer instinct. Keeping Baltimore in the game. Rivers has to be more aggressive instead of audibling to a running play. Rivers has to be the difference in the game. Tom Brady/New England WILL NOT be this kind next week if Baltimore advances.
Jeremy Bates was hired right out from under our noses, who knew. So what is the general consensus for who has the better chance to beat the Cheats if it comes to that. And it's coming to that. I lean towards the Chargers because of rookie Jackson (although he's generally been holding his own), but Balt D ain't no shrinking violet so I guess it's kind of a toss up . . . ? Toss up, heh.
You worry about the Chargers' history of choking and the Ravens' rookie QB, so it's hard to tell. I do think either would have a far better chance than Houston would have, so Indy's win yesterday was big. Nice 53-yard FG.
I like the way the Chargers are playing this game, last time Rivers threw 2 picks. Less aggressive, and let Baltimore beat itself.
WHAT are the Chargers doing?! They're calling this game like they have the 21 years old rookie QB. Run heavy, Rivers audibling to running plays near the goal line and when he throws a bunch of screens, dumpoffs. No aggressiveness at all. Bury them!!
