Jets vs. Chargers
Sunday, January 17, 2010 – 4:30 PM ET on CBS
The Jets, perhaps the underdog of the weekend, take on the Chargers in what should be an exciting matchup. Riding off 11 straight wins, and off a bye week, San Diego will try to step over the Jets on their hopeful ride to the big game. San Diego (13-3) is no doubt one of the hottest teams in the league. The only thing standing in their way of an extended postseason is the top-ranked Jets’ defense. San Diego enters with game favored by 9 points. The over/under is listed at 43.
San Diego, who knows what it’s like to lose after being the popular pick to win the Super Bowl, won’t overlook the New Jets. San Diego’s last playoff defeats were to high ranked scoring defense teams. The Jets are ranked 1 in that category with 14.8 points per game. That, combined with their effective rushing attack, should be enough to keep this one interesting. The Chargers, on the other hand, has a passing game unlike many others that the Jets have played this season. Rivers is third in the league with a 65 percent completion rate for 4,254 yards and 28 touchdowns, which include 9 interceptions.
