...YTD...96-81-6..Reg Season Overall
...YTD...9-6-1...Playoff Games Overall
The Irony of these 2 Playoff Games is That those 4 Teams Played each Other During Week #2 of the Reg Season on 9/16/07 in which each Game was a Blowout with N Eng Winning at Home over S Dan...38-16...and Green Bay Winning at New York...35-13 by Almost Identical Scores...But That was A Long Time Ago..In a Galaxy Far..Far Away...:sm:
AFC TITLE GAME: 3:00PM CBS
(13-5) San Diego at (17-0) New England
This will be the 4th Time in 5 Seasons that N Eng Plays in the AFC Champ Game and this is the 1st Time Since 13 Years for S Dieg to make it...Last Meeting was Week #2 when N End Beat S Deig..38-14 as a 3 1/2 Home Fav...N Eng had a 24-0 Halftime Lead with S Dieg only had 93 Yards of Offense with Tomilison Held to 43 Rushing Yards (2.4 Ave/C)...For the Game Brady Passed for 279 Yards (81 % Comp) with 3 TDs/1 INT with 123 QB Rating..while QB Rivers was 19/30 (63 % Comp) with Only 179 Yards and 2 TDs/2 INTs..Both Teams Played 3 Common Foes (Indy..Jack..Balt)...S Deig Went 3-1 SU and ATS..N Eng went 3-0 SU But 0-3 ATS...S Dieg is 5-4 SU and ATS on the Road and N Eng is 17-0 Matching the 1972 Miami Team which gives them a 9-0 SU and 5-4 ATS at Home and Has the #1 Overall Offense and #4 Overall Defense..(Hard to Beat a Team with a Top 5 Offense and Defense in the NFL 32 Teams)...S Dieg Finished the Seson with #20 Offense..After a Slow Start..and the 14 Overall Denfense...This Season was a Season Of Records..N Eng Set the Reg Season Record of being Unbeaten...Most Points Scored..589 Points..(Team with Most Points Scored in 2006 was S Dieg with 492 Pts)..TD Passes Throwing 50 TDs and TD Rec in Season with Moss having 23...Most Likely One of the Best if Not the Best Offense Put Together...QB Brady..RB..Maroney and Faulk..WR Walker,Moss and Stallworth..TE Ben Watson...Lot of Weapoons...S Dieg has QB Rivers..(Bad Knee)..RB Tomilinson (Bad Knee)..FB L Neal (Ankle) and TE Gates (Toe)..Now All of these Weapons are Banged Up But will Play on Sunday with QB Rivers the Worst Off...Bad Place to Be is a QB thst Can Not Move real Well in the Pocket to Escape the Many Different Blitzes fron N Eng...I Really Believe that QB Volek will be Playing QB Before the Game is Over..His Stats in 2007...3/10 for 6 Yrads 0 TDs/1 INTs with QB Rating of 24.1...Very Weak Numbers Unlike the Ones He had at Tenny...N Eng will Make the QB Position Beat Them Taking Away Running Game and Gates..IMO...S Dieg is 43-20-2 ATS Last 65 Games Overall...N Eng Games went UNDER at 9-2-1 in Last 12 Playoff Home Games...N Eng went OVER in 16-6-1 in N Eng Last 23 Games Overall and 8-3-1 in Last 12 Games on Field Turf...S Dieg has Won and Covered the Last 8 Straight Games in Row SU and ATS...(But Only Indy and Tenny had Winning Records)...Head to Head:N Eng has Won SU and ATS 2 Straight and 6 of Last 8 Between Them....Weather: 23 Degrees at Kickoff that will Feel like 10-11 Degrees with Wind Chill with Winds at 5-7 MPH with Some Gusts up to 15 MPH Partly Cloudy to Clear with Little Chance of Precip...STATS: S Dieg is Ave Scoring 25.4/Points/Game and Defense is Only Allowing 17.4 Poits/Game But N Eng Offense is Scoring a League High 36.5 Points/Game and Defense is Only Allowing 17.3 Points/Game...N Eng is All Most Scoring 3 TDs more than they Allow...That Stat is Just UNREAL...Each Team Bettered themself with S Dieg Picking Up WR Chambers from Miami and N Eng Picking up Walker and Moss at WR were Walker had Over 100 Rec in 2007...S Dieg Must have an Effective Running Game Since Rivers and Most of S Dieg are Not Use to Playing in Cold Weather...S Dieg Corner Cromartie who Lead NFL with 10 INTs Must have a Big Game vs Moss...N Eng is Known for Using the Small Passing Game as a Running Game But RB Maroney Last Week Vs Jacksonville had 122 Yards on 22 Carries Ave 5.5 per Carry (1st RB for N Eng Since 2004 to Rush for Over 100 Yards in Playoffs)..All Ready Talked About Brady Hot Passing Last Week..26/28 at 93 % Comp with Walker and Moss Dropping the 2 Passes and 1st Incomp was in the 3rd Q...Brady TD Pass to Watson was #13th Straight Playoff Game with TD Pass Tied for 2nd in History...Leader is Favre which has 17 Playoff TD Passes in a Row...Here is What I See...S Dieg is a Walking M*A*S*H* Unit after the Indy Game and Making Back to Back Trips East and N Eng is Primed for this Game and S Dieg is Hurting But a Bigger Roles for Turner and Sproles will get More Attempts in the Game with LT Banged Up and the Total Score stays Under the Number with S Dieg Having to Run the Ball to Keep Brady on the Sideline and S Dieg Defense Must Step it Up...With All Things it Could very Well be a N Eng Blowout But I Think S Dieg will have some Fight in Them and Keep the Side Around 10 Points Win for N Eng...So..
