I see you are from San Diego. If you think the cold will make no difference, you are crazy. Teams from California, Florida, Arizona, Texas and Louisiana have very poor ATS records when venturing into sub 32 degree weather. It takes several days to get adjusted. There's many people who've lived their whole lives in the north and still have trouble adjusting to winter.

ne 38 sd 14 shouldn't be the controlling factor here. this isn't week 2.

san diego might like the cold. and maybe they're healthier.

personally, i love san diego.

i just don't want to be there for the tidal wave.

A significant number of SD players have been on cold weather teams.
I dont think weather should be a problem. I think NE is the problem.

And LT not full speed...
Rivers????
Gates.....

SD does have two very good CB's. If they can possibly match up and allow some creativity on defense... Nah... NE. Rootin for San Diego.

Raised in the snow/cold winter crap of upstate NY...got smart and left 25+ years ago...if necessary I could suit up in the cold no problem...I just choose not to..I like 70F and sunny better.

Keating kicks a field goal with no time left and Chargers win.....Brady has a bad day as Jessica Simpson decides to dump Romo and keeps waving at Tom during the game. He throws 12 interseptions and fumbles 5 times.....but gets Laid after the game...which is nice!

Go Chargers

calling on yoko romo for help is a sign of desperation.

Not as cold as I heard it was going to be in NE. Its 23, with wind chill at positive 11. That's not balmy by any means but not anything close to what they have in Green Bay. But even at 23 degrees, San Diego will not adjust. I'd love to see SD win, but with the injuries and cold, it could be a bludgeoning.

The Packers played in Chicago late in the season and the temp was maybe 20 but high winds. They looked horrible; Favre said it was the worst conditions he'd ever played in. Guess what, Brett? Tonight will be much worse. The Giants look like a real live dog.

I humbly ask your
permission to use the QB
moniker. I need to irritate
some Dallas fans as badly
as I do people on this board.

I am sure that Payton Manning watched that game and constantly threw up in his mouth. The Pats were there for the taking today. But, you do have to give them credit, wasn't the greatest performance in history but they got it done.
