Death of the Glow

It's Friday now, so I can move on past the glow and acknowledge the inevitable: the Chargers are in serious trouble against New England. With a completely healthy offense and excellent play-calling, they could engage in a shootout and maybe win with a couple of sacks of Brady and generated turnovers. But Rivers, Tomlinson, and Gates were going to be beat up when they played, in a best case scenario. Now Rivers is listed as doubtful, and the Union Tribune is reporting that Rivers has a partially torn ACL. Gates is also listed as doubtful. The Chargers can't hope to come out throwing and outgun the Patriots with Billy Volek running the show, throwing to Brandon Manumaleuna (as awesome as he is).

It's not looking good. It's going to take a miracle.
