I really, really hope you're right with this one. I have hated Marty for...well...forever. Probably comes from my being a Broncos fan and every team he's coached has been a real pain in the Bronco's a**.

Marty has a history of losing these big games. However, he's turned over all the playmaking responsibility to his defensive and offensive coordinators and Chargers surge since then shows the decision is working. Also, no QB has played better in the fourth quarter than Rivers.

I'm going with the Pats, who I've picked to be the "Super" team this year.

>And the in the late game on Sunday, the 13-4 Patriots head west to take on the 14-2 Chargers. The lightning-bolts are hot, having won 10 in a row. Twice, Marty has taken conference-leading teams into the post-season - and proceeded to flop in the playoffs. Will it happen again? You bet. Why??? Because Phillip Rivers is struggling, and the Patriots' defense is strong enough to stop L.T. Bill Belichick will out-coach Marty and the Chargers. Sorry, San Diego. Swami likes the Pats.
