The Sunday games were all about the grit and determination of road underdogs overcoming adversity, et cetera and so on.
Next week, the Saturday winners should crush the Sunday winners and in convincing fashion.
Other thoughts:
- The Chargers did an amazing job against Peyton, taking away his arsenal of weapons and forcing him to go with his last option every time.
- The Colts missed Marvin. A lot.
- The turnovers and red zone misses came from the fact that they could not run the ball.
- The Chargers offensive line is the real star of the team. Who knew that it was them and not LT and Rivers et al. Apparently anyone can look like a superstar behind those guys.
- Rivers is a jerk who will unravel against the Pats.
- The Cowboys on the other hand are a team of superstars. They needed T.O. healthy in order to win.
- Romo's play was meaningless.
- Eli Manning played the game of his career and didn't put up big numbers.
- I still can't figure out the Giants. When they win, it doesn't make sense and when they lose it doesn't make sense. Mostly it's just too painful to watch the faces of Coughlin and Manning as they betray their every though and emotion.
- I won't say anything against T.O. for crying. I've seen my team go down in flames enough times to know how he feels.
