3. The Chargers almost lost to the Baltimore Ravens.

If there are any Baltimore Ravens fans reading this I am sorry for the loss, but you guys barely deserved to be in the playoffs.

The Ravens barely have a quarterback and seemed completely out of the game, but somehow only lost by a touchdown.  I really don’t know how they did it. The Ravens were down by 20 points at one point.

Also if it wasn’t for the Chargers kicker LA may be on vacation. Kicker Michael Badgley hit 5 field goals giving the Chargers a majority of their points. If LA can be stopped by the Ravens defense I am confident in the Pats defensive unit.

Next. Cordarrelle Patterson is an All-Pro playmaker. dark

It is always good to have playoff football back in New England. It is the true start of the season for Patriots fans, and it looks like we are poised to make another great run to the Super Bowl. Everything seems to always work out in the Patriots favor.
