I do, and I'm not even a Chargers fan. The Pats cheat, they are classless, and the Chargers owe them one anyway for their behavior during the playoffs last year. Go Chargers.

I want the Chargers to win. I believe they will too, they have a lot of emotion coming into this game after last years playoff loss to the Cheatriots.
And no, not everyone sends a team Representative over to the other teams sideline with a video camera to tape the opposing team.
The Cheatriots have done this more then once and it finally has been hit by the league. Last year they did it in games with the Lions and Packers as well. Now if every team was doing it you would hear complaints about them as well not just against the Cheatriots.
Go Chargers, I'd like to see a team go into NE and beat the crap out of them after this stunt.

The Chargers have Phillip Rivers and the adventure, however the Jets do tournament up o.k. with the Chargers. The Chargers greatest potential is their passing offense, and the Jets greatest potential is their pass protection, it fairly is the final in the league (statistically a minimum of). Vincent Jackson gets some catches purely because of the fact of his length on my own, yet he's extra of a deep risk and Darrelle Revis is so reliable protecting deep passes because of the fact it supplies him extra time to get into perfect place to shelter the pass, i do no longer see him being that lots of a ingredient. Phillip Rivers is an elite QB and an excellent extra effective competitor, and could easily make some performs purely from his guts on my own, however the Jets might desire to be waiting to maintain him from going loopy. as lengthy as they might placed rigidity on Rivers like they have all season, and are available up with an answer for Antonio Gates, the Chargers could have complication shifting the ball continuously. The Jets even have the #a million rush offense, and the Chargers have the 20 th ranked rush protection, so the Jets might desire to be waiting to run the ball efficiently, prepare lengthy drives, consume day off the clock and save the Chargers on the bench. If Mark Sanchez is in a position to end intermediate passes to continuously pass the chains and maximum critically, no longer turn the ball over, the Jets would be an exceedingly complicated team for all and sundry to conquer. i would not guess on the Jets, yet as a fan i'm noticeably optimisitc approximately their possibilities in the event that they might play like they have the final 2 weeks.

As a Pats fan I want the Pats to win. If I wasn't I might root for the Chargers in principle, but the Chargers dont have much class themselves. Shawn Merriman was the reason the league had to change the rules on whether a player who gets caught with steriods(AKA Cheating) should be able to play in the pro bowl the same year. And although I agree with LT that the Patriots should not have been dancing on their logo after last year's game he way overreacted. Players get excited and do things like that, its an emotional game. He still cries about it, he needs to stop being such a crybaby.
As far as the camera issue it is wrong to do what they did. But the fact is all teams try and steal each other's signals, Mike Shanahan has bragged about some of the things he has done to accomplish this. Not as big of a deal as people have made it. If it was the lions bagged with a camera it would the laugh of the league, but no one would care as much. Successful teams are teams people love to hate, this is actually quite common in human psychology especially among unsuccessful people.
All that being said, this game will come down to one simple thing, is the issue a bigger motivation or distraction for the Patriots. Its going to be a little of both, but if it more of a motivation I would almost feel sorry for the Chargers if they weren't such crybabies and hypocrites. But if it is more of a distraction I'd almost feel sorry for new england if they didn't bring this on themselves.

I was reading the posts and I saw a Bears fan say the Chargers got lucky last week. Yea that no call offsides that caused Rivers to fumble on the 1 yard line was lucky for the Chargers. I am a Chargers fan, so I hope they win. Its gonna be a good game. The only way Chargers can win is if they rush Brady so that his wr won't have time to get open. Thats how the Chargers beat the Colts when they were undefeated.

The Chargers could be the most balanced team offensively and defensively in the nfl. Playmakers at all the skill postions. I think LT has a HUGE day without Harrison and Seymour.
Second, why do the Patriots have SO much trouble with the Jets? Why the Jets? Why not the Colts? Oh...maybe it was the Colts. Maybe there WAS a reason Peyton looked so bad early in his career vs. the Pats.

I'm not a fan of either of them, I just want to watch this game because it's going to be the best game this Sunday...I'm not really sure the Chargers can beat the Pats, cheating or not, it all comes down to the players on the field being able to make the plays.....man I can't wait!!
Should be a tough one for both teams, I think whoever wins has a great chance to be in the bowl....

ido, and i hate the chargers because they are in the afc west and are a quality team unlike my raiders they have a shot a going deep in to the playoffs and maybe a superbowl but i hate the patsies on a whole different level they are cheaters have been cheaters and i hope the chargers mop the stadium floor with the cheating pats please san diego show the pats what a team with class looks like, and i hope LT runs for 300 yards and they break tom bradys legs, maybe merriman could miss a tackle in front of the patsie sideline and hit billicheat instead leaving him unconcious and soiling his underwear GO CHARGERS

Im rooting for the Chargers. I am a Bears fan and upset by the fact that we lost horribly to the Chargers. HOWEVER, the Chargers are a good team. Granted if you don't want them to score, all you have to do is stop LT. Im just curious as to how far the Pats would have gotten without taping the other team.
Funny how people are though. They are willing to throw people under the bus for making stupid decisions, but when it involves their team, all of a sudden everyone makes mistakes. **hehe** classic.
This game will be phenomenal though.

I heard from my friend in Cali that the San Diego sports channels were "all over" the cheatin' Pats this week. I LOVE the "lightning bolts" from their powder blue jerseys to LT to 85 and 56.....even have LT and Antonio Gates on my fantasy team. BUT, that being said....they have a tough game this week in Foxboro....the Pats will be PISSED after all this cheating talk and are most anxious to clank some heads on the field to show that their super bowl run has not be the result of cheating. I see this being an entertaining game, but unfortunately, I see the Patriots winning (say) 28-24.

i like the patriots because 1 the pats have a revamped recieving corps. 2 the chargers loooked flat in offense and LT really didn't get much in the way of yards. 3Moss is of old caliber and going deep threat. 4 the pats defense will not let LT get the yards they know how to stop him. dont get me wrong i think it'l be a great game' but the bolts just looked dull against a bad team with no qb
