So we all agree the winner of Chargers/Colts wins it all? Right?

Okay... good....

Felt this way about the Ravens/Colts game last year...

Whoever wins this game, will probably knock the Pats off and win the Super Bowl.

I am hoping its the Colts. #18 gonna start the campaign tomorrow. Tired of all this Brady crap.

Quite possible. I agree that Peyton is probably getting tired of hearing about Brady and the Colts as a whole are probably tired of hearing about the Pats. They are completely under the radar right now and I agree that they could easily knock off the Pats if they take care of the Chargers.........check that, WHEN they take care of the Chargers! As a Cowboy fan I don't know who I would rather play if the Boyz get to the promise land. The Pats would be neat because they would have the opportunity to knock them off and ruin their dream season, as well as avenging the early season loss. On the other hand, I would love to see the Jags or anyone else for that matter, knock em off.

I agree, but will narrow down the predication even further. The Colts defeat the Chargers with ease and go on to win the Super Bowl.

How about the correlation between the 2005-06' Steelers and this years Chargers.

* Steelers went 15-1 in 04' with first year starting QB Ben in 04' and lost to the Patriots in the Playoffs.
* Chargers go 14-2 in 06' with first year starting QB Rivers and lost to the Patriots in the Playoffs.

Their very next year....

* Steelers start slow and go 11-5 in 05 and win their Wildcard game.
* Chargers start slow and go 11-5 in 07 and win their Wildcard game.

* Steelers go to Indy for the Divisional Round in 05' and pull off upset as 10 point underdogs.
* Chargers go to Indy for the Divisional Round in 08' and ???? as 9 point underdogs.

You see a pattern here....

05-06' Steelers win the Superbowl

07-08' Chargers ????????
