Dallas Board Game Thread
A crucial game for both teams. Chargers have a chance to separate themselves even more for the Broncos, keep their winning streak and secure their spot in the playoffs.
And the same goes for the Cowboys. In order to keep their playoff spot they have to win and in December that is something they are not to fond of.
It will be important for the Chargers defense to show up and pressure Tony Romo. LT needs a solid game, San Diego needs a rushing presence in this game because we all know Rivers will take control of the game.
The odds are in favor of Dallas, but just because they are at home. So, GO CHARGERS!!!!!

Only one game into this month, the talk of another December swoon is already swirling in Dallas.
The month has only been good to the San Diego Chargers in recent seasons.
The Cowboys’ lone home game in what has become their dreaded month will take place Sunday against the Chargers, who are unbeaten since October and riding the longest December winning streak in NFL history.
The Cowboys, who haven’t had a winning December since going 3-2 in 2001, could fall out of a tie for the NFC East lead with a loss Sunday.
The Chargers (9-3) have had no such troubles in December.
They’ve won a league-record 15 in a row in the month since a 23-7 defeat to Denver on Dec. 31, 2005. The previous record of 13 was held by the 1968-72 Cowboys.
Rivers, the AFC leader with a 104.9 passer rating, has completed 76.0 percent of his throws for 1,066 yards with seven touchdowns and no interceptions over the last four games.
