They Are Who We Thought They Were

And who they have been for several years. Favored by 7.5 points, the Chargers were tied with the Colts at the end of regulation, after the Colts had missed two short field goals and an extra point kick. The Chargers did manage to win in overtime, but... They had a team total of 166 yards rushing without Melvin Gordon, which makes his $13 million demand look sillier by the week.

The Kansas City Chiefs won 40-26, so they met expectations. Eli Manning went down in flames 35-17, so he lives up to his recent reputation. The Patriots massacred the Steelers 33-3 as Big Ben continues on his sad road to ignominy.

    wasn't tht 33-3 score the same as the Super Bowl rout of the Lambs last Feb? I guess hanging the banner inspired them to repeat it...

  2. Yeah, different team though. That was against the Rams. Steelers haven't been in the Super Bowl since 2009, and certainly aren't going this year.
