Bolts strike Colts!

I know this blog is being written a day later but think of it as a way to digest everything from the Aussie open's first round of action. This included a 3:30 in the morning match featuring the men's number one player, Roger Federer blasting Diego Hartfield allowing the Argentinian to get 3 games in the second set of a straight sets win.

Getting back on point, the Chargers beat the Colts without LaDainian Tomlinson in the second half and Philip Rivers...after the third quarter. The Chargers came up enormously in spite of a road game at Indianapolis and Bill Volek calling the plays in the huddle.

Once again the history of the success of the Chargers against the Colts came into effect and now the squad has amassed a three-game winning streak from the now departed Super Bowl champion's

Antonio Cromartie played a huge role in forcing a fumble and intercepting a pass at the end of the first half to hold the Colts to a tenseven lead. Cromaie returned the bal for a touchdown but the call was reversed after olding penalty on the return at the forty yard lne. The call was fictional because the players were battling ach other and both competitors did not let each other go.

What's exhiliaring and mortifying is that Peyton Manning was productively efficient...completing 22 of 27 passes and had two passes deflected for interceptions. The pro-bowl quarterback tossed for 402 yards on 33-of-48 but it wasn't enough to compensate for the losses of wide receivers Marvin Harrison and Reggie Wayne.

The Chargers became the King Midas while the Colts touched the gold before realizing false promise of another Super Bowl run. In light of these circumstances, it's time to look forward to a brutal conquest next weekend as San Diego heads to Gillette Stadium for a playoff re-match from last year with the Pats. This time around, however, the game is played in New England and I give the Chargers almost no chance to come out on top.

The Pats will go to 18-0 on the season afer Tom Brady, Wes Welker, Ben Watson, and Randy MOs pick apart one of the best secondaries in football. Philip Rivers and L.T wil play hurt but won't impact how the front seven of the Patriots perform.

Patriots go to the Super Bowl with a 31-17 victory.
