I hope not!  I'm hoping we can maintain at least 30 to 40% run to pass.  Down to 3rd and 4th string RBs is never a great position, but the "Pollyanna" in me says, "welp... at least they dont have much film to work from"  :lol:

Good luck tonight, sucks Gordon is out but hopefully he will get healthy.

Did anybody see Rivers audible to that deep ball to Benjamin across the middle on the final drive? That was Peyton Manning level computer mind football right there. It wasn’t just an audible because he didn’t like the play they had called. He clearly saw something that made that completion automatic. You could tell by the way he frantically called it. Against a top defense in there house on perhaps the final drive of the game. I don’t know if they’re going to pull this out but that was an example of how great Rivers is.

Rivers is damn good! If they score would you go for 2? and the win.

I was saying go for 2 because you don’t want to have 1 of those just plain exhausting games on a Thursday night late in the year. The seed and the home field isn’t worth it if you’re dead when you get there. Rivers doesn’t need to get hurt either. Had they lost then they were still virtually in and they wouldn’t have to worry about sweeping the Chiefs. But they converted anyway! Good for them. 1 of my favorites all time.

Rivers is Great, I wouldn't mind the Chargers winning it all if the Colts do not. Rivers is like the Marino and Kelly of today, go get that ring Phil.

This is good for the Colts. Means The Chargers have extra incentive to beat both Baltimore and Denver for a shot at the #1 seed.

 

True. But the Ravens are the type of blitzing team like the Rex Ryan days to give Rivers and the Chargers fits. I have a feeling Ravens will take down the Chargers. But what a game, regardless!!!

 

Chiefs, if they beat the Seahawks, have the Raiders left on the board. It is always hard to beat Seattle in Seattle but if they pull it off, the #1 seed is theirs.

 

The #6 seed in the AFC can beat the Texans, hopefully it is the Colts. I'd rather have the Chiefs stay at the #1 spot where the Colts match up well vs the Chiefs and let the Chargers and Patriots to duke it out. :) 

 

The AFC playoffs is ALWAYS better with the Ravens and Chargers in it. Here is to the Steelers for blowing it on Sunday. 

 

About the 1000 plus yards of passing, Rivers is the kind of QB who methodically drives down the field. Mahomes, after his initial success, teams are playing safeties deep, to force him to methodically drive down as well. Bosa and Ingram back forces teams to get rid of the ball quickly. So, I never expected anything close to 700 yards.

I’m definitely pulling for the 2 best quarterbacks in the game right now who don’t have a ring (just forgetting the future single season TD leader who hasn’t technically played a whole year yet for a minute). A bunch of other guys deserve it too. Gates, the OL who bust their * every play etc.

I am out of LIKES so I will have to get you back tomorrow but yes I would love to see Rivers to get a Ring. You get just one and that completes the resume IMO. I was hoping Marino would get one but he never did. Kelly too but 0-4 in SB's.

Both teams running games are wounded, Many QBs have thrown for 500+ yards in a single game including Matt Schaub against the Jags in 2012 so with the two excellent QBs going at it tonight will we see a 1,000 yard game? 

 

For the record...  

 

Rivers and Mahomes combined for..... 

 

556 yards passing.

Rivers:  313

Mahomes:  243

 

So close......

I had a feeling that the Chargers would take this game. The team had a slow start in the first half, with Rivers under pressure, but they adjusted well. Congrats to picking up a playoff berth! 

 

Tough to see Keenan Allen hurt. I hope it's not serious, and that he will be able to play later. 

 

Melvin Gordon wanted to play this game, but was held back. He might be ready in the next week or so.

ugh been sick but yes I did see it. He like zig zags to the line calling out commands. They even showed the replay just on that. Very impressive indeed.

 

I stopped watching after KC had 2 score lead.

Then I was trying to figure out the 2pt conversion because the score didn't did not  jive with it.

Oh so they went for the win. Very gutsy.

 

I get a loss may not change SD seed but winning in OT would. Of course that's 50-50 at best.

 

I can just see Andy Reed making that call, NOT :)

I called it after the Chiefs game. If you play coverage against Rivers, he will pick apart your zones. This was a page out of the Rex Ryan book, the way the Ravens played D tonight.

      BREAKING: NFL loses HUGE in Sunday Ticket Lawsuit

      By 2006Coltsbestever · Posted

      I have been lucky to live in Indy my whole life, great state and the city of Indianapolis has provided me with Indy 500's from 1979 (1st race I went too as a kid) - up through 1998 that I will never forget as far as racers and partying (Rick Mears is the GOAT). Indianapolis has brought me 9 Final 4's from the Pacers = 1994, 95, 98, 99, 2000, 2004, 2013, 2014, and 2024 + the Finals in 2000. Thanks Reggie, Paul, and Haliburton. It has brought me a World Championship in 2006/07 by Peyton regarding Colts football, love you Peyton. Now I even have Clark in the WNBA, I don't have to worry about watching any of it is my point because I live in Indiana, it's all on locally.

      Footwork continues to improve. That last throw he had a good base. Hope that translates in training camp with the pads on.    I agree with @NewColtsFan, I know he’s a big basketball fan, but I’d rather he not go too crazy with it and get hurt.    That said, players can get hurt just by walking out of the shower…

      Happy 65th Birthday Mr. Irsay !

      By 2006Coltsbestever · Posted

      I have watched and followed Football since the 1976 season when I was basically 5 years old going on 6. I can't recall too many owners better than Mr. Irsay. I get it we had Peyton and Luck but his winning % says it all in his case. We went to a Championship Game with Harbaugh at QB so enough said and went 9-8 with Mustache!

      I told everyone he was healthy a month ago, and I had 2 posters in here tell me I was full of it. I heard him say he was 100% on the McAfee show and he never felt stronger, that was a month ago. Get the Andrew Luck syndrome out of your brain to the people that think he is injury prone. Last year's injuries were a fluke, we will go 10-7 as long as he plays in 15 games, and we will either win the Division or make a 6th or 7th seed. You guys know how good I am at predicting, so I will let it be.
