And away we go…

To The Games!

Chargers/Broncos:

Both qb’s have banged up o-lines to deal with so whoever can get the ball to their talented wr’s should have the edge. Though the sorta dynamic duo of Gordon/Williams must be salivating at the prospect of the atrocious Chargers “Right This Way, Ma’am” run defense. Denver also has good news in the form of Bradley Chubb being lifted off IR and apparently will play today. It should be a close tilt as the Chargers have played one-score games in 7 of 10.

Rams/Packers:

These two are a combined 1-5 (Rams had a bye) over the last little while and don’t exactly come off as world beaters. With Woods gone for the year OBJ switches from a luxury to an essential part of the passing game. I predict he’ll get off to a fast start and then lose focus just as he always does. Rodgers is starting to come off like the aunt that tells long, involved stories of her every ache and pain.

Vikings/Niners:

Both teams have responded very well in recent weeks to the point that they’re both sporting a 5-5 record. Jimmy G’s renaissance has certainly benefited the team-his 6-1 TD/Int ratio highlights his mistake-free play which has in turn taken a bit of pressure off the muddled backfield. Rb Mitchell is expected to play but Wilson should get his as well. Should be interesting as both coaches want to run the ball down the other’s throat but can also fall back on fantastic talent at the wr spot.

Go be you in the comments.
