Shocking news about Gaines Adams. RIP

This is probably going to be the Chargers kickers ast game for them considering how ruthless head coaches can be towards them.

Nate is the most accurate kicker in the NFL, I know kickers usually do get cut quickly after misses but we'd be daft to get rid of him. Always unfortunately misses goals in playoffs though.

Game on then. Both down to 1 time out each. A close playoff game, who would have thought it.

Chargers choke in the playoffs yet again.

At least this game was close rather than yet another blowout.

I just don't see the Jets beating the Colts imo, though if they did, would I be right in saying Sanchez would be the first rookie QB to take a team to the superbowl?

Yes, apparently he'll be the first as a Rookie. Marino and Roethlisberger both made it in year 2.

I was suprised more by the Chargers last night than the Jets, SD were pretty poor and Rivers was erratic (credit to NYJ for that to be fair). I still don't think they have enough to beat Indy.

The Jets doing well does not surprise me in the slightest. Good across the board on defence. Good Offensive line and running game. Good head coach. As Sanchez develops they will only become more balanced. Add one maybe two more aerial threats to the Jets offense and they could dominate the AFC East in years to come.

Chargers in the second game. Excellent offence and although i'm not sure about defence they will have more than enough to beat NYJ. Revis can only cover one man and the rest of the defence will struggle with the other players. If the Jets get behind then Sanchez will struggle to try and win it.

oops.

He's tipped us to lose again next week too....Superbowl here we come!!!

I thought last night was an object lesson in patience and staying true to your gameplan from the Jets and the pressure on both offence and defence paid off in the long run. Can't see them changing the approach for the Colts as its got us this far and the Colts run defence isnt hugely impressive (statistically at least) but it did keep the Ravens very quiet this weekend. I would safely predict that the Colts will not be anywhere near as ill-disciplined as the Chargers were last night too!
