Chargers at Texans Pre-Game Discussion (Wild Card Round)

[wu-dai clan]

Haskins did a nice job in the Gus role.

All this hard work.
Across the organization.
It's coming together.
Truly a team effort.

"WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR ?!? "

That's an excellent question.

Another nice pickup by Hortiz.

Yup but I think Jim helped as well since Haskins was an ex-Michigan player.

[ShockNAwe]

I dont think Kimani is ever going the be the answer at the NFL level some here think. To me is a depth guy.

Lets get one of those 225 pounders in this draft. The kind we could have used at the goal line today with skill well beyond Haskins

I couldn't agree more. He just doesn't do anything that pops off the screen. Which is OK as he wasn't an early round draft pick.

He’s on track to become a quality substitute to pick up some carries when needed. He will refine and improve, steal some extra yards here n there as he knows more if he fixes his pass pro so he is not a liability. But I also agree3 he’s not going to be a star RB, barring a stunning change. Thats very seldom a big change, for the rare RB folks point to there are a hundred that never really get much better at all.

Hate to look ahead, but I love this setup...take care of business against the Texans, and we get a revenge game against the Chiefs? Hell...I like that matchup better than Ravens or Bills...

Yea...Im assuming Steelers and Donkeys lose...who wouldnt?

But...gotta not lay an egg vs Texans...I like our chances

Adopted Bolt: Scott Matlock

This is my train of thought also. The Harbaugh Chargers beat the teams they should beat. They should beat the Texans (Vegas agrees). Therefore I am confident they will win. The Steelers have lost four straight. I don't think they're going into Baltimore and beat the Ravens. The Broncos were a nice story this season. But I don't see them going into Buffalo and beating Josh Allen and the Bills. Therefore, I see Chargers @ Chiefs in the Divisional Round as a very likely scenario. The Harbaugh Chargers get closer to beating the Chiefs every time they play. The Chargers know the Chiefs well, they are familiar with playing at Arrowhead. I took a peak at the two-week forecast for KC. Weather conditions look favorable for Divisional weekend. Cold, but not onerous, 20s & 30s. No precip or high winds in the forecast.

Would like to see Herbert get one playoff win. This could be the game, I sure hope so.

Would be nice to get the talking head clowns off his back. He's a gamer. I predict he will raise his game to a new level (especially with 2 good ankles).

One game at a time. Respect Houston. Play well. Expect a close game.

This.

Checking the weather in KC in 2 weeks is:

A) very bad MOJO
B) not very scientific from a meteorological stand point.

Team wins for sure. A lot of contributors making plays out there

Still not an exact science, but modern weather forecasting is pretty accurate looking weeks ahead. Here is the KC forecast for Divisional Weekend:

Sat Jan 18: Partly cloudy, high of 34/low of 17, 17% chance of precip, N winds 10 mph

Sun Jan 19: Mostly cloudy, high of 28/low of 12, 24% chance of precip, N winds 10 mph

[jamrock]

Agree, I'm expecting a close (and stressful lol) game.

I think if we stick to controlling the TOP and play mistake free, we will break through in the second half.

This is Jim and Greg's time of year.

Let's hope it's Jesse's time of year as well. And Ben Herbert has got these guys ready

I bet Bronco fans are saying if they can get by the Bills they'd love a Chiefs game too
