We're thinking too far ahead.
It is by no means a sure thing that the Patriots can get past the Chargers.
If they do beat San Diego, I hope the Patriots play the Packers in the Super
Bowl and pound them till gorgonzola comes out of their ears.
Gorgonzola! Well, at least some good would come of that. I'll bring the walnuts.

Locked and loaded... he he he

I'm reading along with the NYTimes blog. Wish they had that for every game..

pretty good so far, eh?
awesome...well matched..so far
Pats 14-6 at the end of the half. oops last minute Bolts FG makes it
14-9 - so, within one score now.
Bolts have been defending like madmen...giving Brady all he can
handle...like to see this game go 4 quarters like this.
Chargers should be leading. Two picks and some excellent Patriot red-zone
defense are the only reasons why not. Charger defense making the Patriots
offense look mediocre.
can't believe LT's on the sideline ("coach's decision").
they said he's not hurt, and the season's on the line...
one wonders...
what do the talking heads say?
LT is hurting, he can't cut....
Fortunately he has the best backup in the league.
2nd half should be fun.
RH
The Chargers are playing tremendously on defense, good enough to beat any team in the league.... except the Patriots.
Another indication of just how good the Patriots are. You must not only play the perfect game on defense to beat them, but on offense as well.
The Patriots and the Giants in the Super Bowl will be a good, close game, but the Patriots will prevail.
If the Packers somehow make it to the Big Dance, look for the Patriots to beat them by a minimum of four touchdowns.
Just about over (she says hoping for a miracle comeback).
Are the Chargers winning?
