Possible preview of the AFC Championship? A lot of people think so (I don't). Either way, this game looks hell of a lot better than the Monday Night game. A lot of backstory going into it as well (Re-match of the Divisional game, Patriots' cheating and possible reprecussions, Randy Moss' resurgence... Sure seems like Tom Brady's Bastard child story faded quite fast...)
Overall, I like the Patriots in this one. Randy Moss is too good, and they're going to need at least 2 (and sometimes 3) guys to defend him (especially considering Jammer will be on him). Maybe I'm putting too much thought into it, but I don't think they'll be able to blitz with Merriman as often as they'd like. And even with Moss covered up, they've still got Welker and Stallworth. I've got to mention it again, but that offense is just stacked. And this goes without mentioning Maroney, Brady, Brady, Watson and the O-Line (Mankins, you're my second favorite white offensive linemen. And don't take it as a bad thing... Big white offensive Linemen are my favorite type of players)
I think San Diego's Offense will be able to do a good job against the Patriots' D, but not the type of success that the Pats' O will
Monday Night Game

Honestly... who picks these Monday Night Games. Granted, Week 1's MNFs finished well, but both sucked for a majority of the game. (Cincy-Baltimore game was marred by mistakes, sloppiness and carelessness, and the 49ers-Cards game had the right presentation... to make me fall asleep... That and the game seemed sloppy whenever I managed to pay attention).
This looks like it will be dominated by Philadelphia... but who knows. That's what I said about week one of Philadelphia versus Green Bay. I read from vaff (I think it was vaff) and Icness that Shawn Andrews is paying through injury. If that's the case, I could see this game being closer than I thought it would be.
At least the Reno Mahe signing means that they won't make as much mistakes as they did on the returns last week.
