How about them Raiders?

I thought they could be better than the Chefs this year. It's the Chargers that disgust me.

You mean because the Chargers O-line is so beaten up? The whole line is made of glass and Phillip Rivers was hit and sacked continously  by the Vikings? the Chargers look in trouble to me .

If anything this does show that having a better than average defense and offense is what really decides who becomes football's world champions each year.
