Denver New England New York Giants New York Jets?(Questionable)</div> I don't know about that, to me the Patriots, Broncos and Giants are considered "better" teams in the league. In comparison to teams such as the Raiders, Texans, 49'ers, Cardinals etc. I just don't believe that the Colts are better than the Chargers at this point. Manning and the offense can't do it all by themselves, especially when Manning chokes in the playoffs every year, they need their defense to help out and the defense just doesn't measure up.
How have people beaten the Colts this year??? By running the football.... Who's the best running back in the game arguably all time???? Ladainian Tomlinson... The Chargers would pound the ball and control the clock and keep Peyton Manning and Co. on the sidleines. Game over, Chargers win, making them the best team in the AFC which pretty much means the best in the NFL
Chargers get the nod here. They will be able to score at will on the Colts and control the clock. Tomlinson could probably rack up 400 yards rushing on the Colts. Fred Taylor and Maurice Jones-Drew racked up over 300 yards rushing on them last week. Travis Henry looked like a Pro Bowler in both games against the Colts this year. If/When these two teams meet, it's going to be about turnovers. The only way the Chargers lose to the Colts is if they don't protect the ball.
L.T. on his A game versus the Colts Manning on his A game versus the Chargers I'll take L.T. and I'll take the matchup any day.
I have a suggestion. How about the Raiders? Just imagine how good they would be if they knew what an A game was like?
