Crash and Burn!!!

There was more and there will be even more football playoff action, but! The New England Patriots with a healthy Tom Brady, Just Crashed and Burned. It was pathetic. Baltimore jumped to a 24 - 0 lead by the beginning of the 2nd QUARTER! New England never made up the 24. 2 int and 1 fumble, a team record, NE never had an answer for the Run happy Ravens. I don't know what to say, I never thought the Ravens got where they were by being good, but they sure made the Patriots look bad. I, of course, hope my Chargers get it done this year. They haven't looked this good in a long time. They have experience, they have talent, the coach is committed the Quarterback, Phillip Rivers, is one of the best in the NFL and there is no back stage drama as there was with Spanos and Shannahan. LT is doing great and seems to have no problem sharing the running duties for the younger Sproles. Everybody is looking healthy too. Now, no matter how they do, I just want to give a raspberry to the great Jerry Rice, who said "I have never played for a worst coach all the way back to pee-wee" Norv Turner has won more game than any coach in Charger history. That includes Don Coryell (everybody stands, hands over their hearts and say "Don Coryell"). AFC champs again, one and done two years, two and out last year, this year, Bye week and home field advantage. We'll just see. Cowboys? Packers? Vikings? Just don't bring on Walsh, Montana and SF. But this year that is San Diego or New Orleans.

But that's how I feel.
