From a Broncos fan - hope you don't mind
This is what I wrote in my weekly column Brad’s NFL Picks
Inddeeps (12-4) at San Diego (8-8) – This game will also be on NBC. The Las Vegas line – Colts favored by one. These two teams played in Week 12 at San Diego, Colts winning 23-20 on a 50 yard FG as time expired. Neither team has lost since that game. I picked the Chargers to win that one, and I’ll do it again. LaDainian Tomlinson looked terrific last week against the Broncos (I know, the Broncos D is bad, but LT showed moves he hasn’t shown for a couple years). Toss in speedy RB Darren Sproles, and the fact that the Colts’ run D is not good (although they may get Bob Sanders back) and it looks like another close game. But the Colts’ run O hasn’t been great, averaging just 80 yards per game. Addai and Rhodes have been banged up, and still are. Neither team has a great D, so look for a lot of points – two very good QB’s here. I’m going with LT and the Chargers.

We don’t mind at all, but you need to predict a final score.

Okay, but I'm not good at it
23-20 Chargers. I don’t think it will be as high scoring as some think. Neither defense is that bad. I look for a good game, and I’m an AFC guy from way back, so go Chargers.

Neither are any of us.
Thanks for playing along anyway. Go Chargers, indeed.

well
Colts-more
Chargers-less
I guess if you want a real score I’ll go with my patented over/under and spread push tactic.

Chargers-25

27-21 Colts
Colts kick a late field goal late in the game to force the Chargers to score a TD with under 2 minutes left…but they fail to do so.

I don’t know if I’d have said this last year, but if you give me that situation I will take it. Rivers, needing a TD with under 2 minutes left…I hope we get that scenario. You can say a lot of things about Rivers, but to say he doesn’t embrace clutch time is not one of them. See SD – KC, week 15.

31-24 Chargers
Don’t be tricked by my Ducks logo…I am as big a Charger fan as you are going to find in Oregon. We will impose our will on the Colts. This offense was not clicking when we met the first time, and they still needed a last-second FG and some bad clock management by us. I think if the offense was playing back then how they are playing now it wouldn’t have been close enough for them to win in the last minute. I think LT, Rivers, Gates, Jamal, etc, are hungry after getting so close last year, and realize that the window is closing. If LT and Gates can make it through the whole game and be even semi-effective, we win by a TD. Watch for a fired up team to come out HOT!

I say, “If LT and Gates can make it through the whole game…”, and then go find this on ESPN. Sigh.

34-24 Chargers
My first “predictions” (or uninformed guesses) on this site.
Manning throws 2 interceptions, Rivers 1
Chambers has 2 TD catches…yes, Chambers, not Jackson
Colts will be charged with a delay of game because the Q will be insane. Make it happen people
I’ve never had such anticipation for any game before
GO CHARGERS!!!!!
I'm not in denial, I'm just selective about the reality I choose to accept.
