I see the pros have the Vikings picked by 3.5 for this weekends game. I didnt look at it before they switched Qb's did they give the Vikes the extra points after the Qb change?

Another thing they have the 0-2 Chargers over the Jets by 9. Pretty big spread for having the gun slinger Favre on the Jets.

If I was a betting man, I would place some money on the Charger/Jets game!

[LMITOUT]

Since the 14th/15th the spread hasn't changed much. Some have moved up 0.5 and others have moved down 0.5 pts. The QB change didn't seem to have much effect.

[Sandmannd]

It didn't have much effect cause "it's the system". As Denny would say, it's the car, anyone can drive it. And no one can play like we play when we play.

Sd has looked just as bad, if not worse then the Vikings.

[bassislife]

I wouldn't go and say they are worse than the vikes, SD has a much better team than the them. They just haven't found their "spark" yet.

[LMITOUT]

SD lost their first game due to a last second touchdown pass by none other than the QB visiting the Dome on Sunday. Then of course they were done in by a bad call against Denver this week. They are two plays away from being a 2-0 team. Their defense seems a little weaker than they were projected and have let the other team stay in the game. They were supposed to be a top defense this year but aren't showing it so far.

[Wadinator]

Merriman being out for the year doesn't help them any.

They're my fantasy defense. So far, its been less of a fantasy and more like a nightmare.

(well, not that bad... but not that good either)

Awesome Avatar Wadinator! Spot on!

Didn't SD start out worse last year, only to finish red hot?

so is another 0-2 team.....but since it doesn't help your point its ignored. gotcha....

[LMITOUT]

Oh yeah? Who's the other 0-2 team?

[james_walleye]

I dont think you get the point. If the right call is made against the broncos last week would you be thinking different about the chargers and their start? I think we all know the answer. The chargers are going to take out their frustrations on the jets. It will be at least a 2TD win for the bolts.

[LMITOUT]

Yeah, I get the point. The point was the Chargers 0-2 record is not indicative of the team's performance. They are very competitive and if they would have got two breaks they'd be 2-0. Such is life.

If anyone thinks that the Vikings are a two breaks away from 2-0 they are sorely mistaken.

[james_walleye]

I was agreeing with you LMIT....

[LMITOUT]

Ahh, gotcha, I was wondering there what you were getting at. I agree with you too, the Chargers have something in store for Broadway Brett.
