      They last beat the Chargers in 1992 as the Houston Oilers. But yes, they have not beaten the Chargers since relocating to Tennessee, as either the Oilers or Titans.

        Here's my surprise team: San Diego. Now, before you all get in a tizzy, let me add that this would surprise me, too. I expect the Chargers to finish 7-9 or 8-8. But if they suffer no further significant injuries and get some lucky breaks, they could conceivably surprise.
        That's not a Surprise Team, I EXPECT them to win now just like McCoy does!!!

Overall they look to be on the upside and rising fast. One of their announcers presented the question to the booth; which game on the schedule did they have circled as a "key game"? One said, "San Diego. I hate the Chargers."

            Titans have never beat the Chargers.

              "Cheer for the Houston Oilers," is still stuck in my head.

              For the record, Houston Texans is the stupidest team name I've ever heard. They need to go back to being the Oilers.

                But it's so politically correct. Unlike the evil capitalist oilers.

                My surprise team is the Bills. Why? I dunno. Maybe because I've never met a diehard Bills fan. Not sure they even exist.

                    The Chiefs but in a negative way. There is a lot of media hype about how they will be great because of injured players coming back, Alex Smith and Andy Reid.

                    I think they go 6-10. I don't buy Smith in that offense.
                    Oh, I'm sorry, did I break your concentration?

                        Real wild card IMO. I liked some of the younger guys they were bringing along prior to Reid, but as you say, they got hurt and last year I thought we would have seen more. Now I really don't know what they have. I mean, sure it could be a rejuvenation under Reid and with a competent QB. But as you say, they could go 6-10.
