Easiest Play For Week 1? San Diego Chargers

[PhillyFlyers]

I think Rivers might have 500 yards passing this game.

Oakland with no secondary at all. Their D-backs are going to get scorched.

San Diego might score 60.

Might be the easiest play all weekend.

This game easily goes San Diego and Over.

I was thinking the same thing.

But then again, No running game. And Rivers is no Tom Brady and can't just pass all over any given team.

No Vincent Jackson, but a healthy Antonio Gates....

I love Oak. A little scared of Oak QB situation but Oak should dominate both sides of the line of scrimmage.

Gates, Oakland has no secondary at all.

You don't need to run the ball if the opposing team's d-backs can't cover.

I really expect for Rivers to have the most passing yards in week 1.

Perfect line for vegas. Vegas showing you Rivers isn't what he use to be! Love the line!

[BigDeem5]

Taking Oakland, strongest week 1 play. Stop DMC

What does it mean when you say perfect line for Vegas?

[TheMoneyShot]

I'm pretty sure the public will be on Rivers an San Diego. Rivers still forcing the ball as usual... he's not that good. The offense revolves around him... and he hasn't shown me sh#$. As he ages... he's getting worse.

Yeah DMac will be tough to stop until he gets hurt on his 2nd carry of the game and is out for the year.

[OTL]

SD always starts the season off slow though... Oak's secondary might be weak but they've got lots of talent elsewhere. I'm staying away from this one.

Money, just curious, what has Oakland shown you?

DMac can't stay healthy. Carson Palmer is an interception machine. Oakland's wr's are suspect.

Remember, San Diego and Oakland played in the final week of last season. The Chargers won that game 38-26.

Since then, Oakland has got demonstrably worse as a football team.

They lost their two starting cornerbacks, their 2nd string RB who was essentially their de-facto starter since Dmac missed so much time in Michael Bush, their starting TE Kevin Boss, their 2nd leading sack man in Kamerion Wimbley, their starting center Samson Satele.

Oakland truly fukkin sucks.

On top of that, they have a rookie head coach who's been in the league for 1 year prior to this.

There is no way they win this game unless it's fixed.

SD always starts the season off so slow as well as Rivers never hits his stride till week 5 or not at all like last year

This. Last year they had a very easy schedule to start the year. Other than that go back and look at their early record the past 3-4 years

Slow start? Last year, after the first 5 games of the season, they were 4-1 including a win in the opener.

[HoulihansTX]

Oakland has won this very game for the last two years. You are delusional if this is your LOCK.

[Sam Odom]

As Rivers goes so do the Chargers... personally I dont like putting my $$$ on a hothead/baby !

A little adversity and Philip can fall apart

[PhillyFlyers]

Oakland has won this very game for the last two years. You are delusional if this is your LOCK.

The last 2 years? wtf are you watching? In 2010 they lost the opener to Tennessee.

Last year, they beat a Denver Broncos team that started Kyle fukkin Orton as their QB and a rookie defensive coordinator who was never in the league before.

LOL I'm delusional, but keep betting Oakland. In fact, put your fukkin money on oakland every fukkin week.

Oak big. SD is garbage.

[BetterYetAmazing]

Easy money!!!

[PhillyFlyers]

I need an explanation on this. Maybe I'm not seeing something.

What is the deal with people taking Oakland?

They are fukking horrible.

What am I missing?

SD is worse. Gonna get mauled upfront.

[onacloud]

Bush had 150+ rushing yards and a TD
Palmer was 14/20 300yds 2TD

Why won't that happen again?

By who? Grandpa Richard Seymour? Tommy fukkin Kelly?

Rivers is gonna shred that fukkin secondary from limb to limb.

Gl yo, one of us will win this one.

[Big Bear]

both QB's are garbage. I give the edge to the Raiders though since they are playing at home and home teams do well on Monday nights.


if there is a prop on combined interceptions i would guess that between Palmer and Rivers they throw atleast 4 INT's .


Both of these guys throw a ton of picks.

GL brah. No matter how big our differences of opinions on this forum are, I always want to see everybody here win.

Oakland's secondary is garbage tho. They might not be good enough to make plays to get the picks.

They are so bad, in fact, just today they signed Joselio Hanson who was cut from the Eagles.

If you watched any Eagles game last year, this dude was so bad in coverage it's hard to describe.

Oakland is a desperate team this year that will be lucky to win 4 games.

[Big Bear]

yeah you might be right.

If Phillip is on his game he is one of the best QB's in the league. I used to have a lot of respect for him but he was awful last year.

Maybe he will bounce back. As for the Raiders though i have no faith in Carson Palmer but Darren McFadden is a beast. He might be the best
running back there is.

why people keep arguing about two garbage teams, there are better slot out there on the board, like Atlanta -3 vs KC.

Matt Shaughnessy. Raiders have many many weaknesses. Front 7 is not one of them.
