Chargers in must-win spot
October 11, 2008
By SBGGlobal.com
New England Patriots (3-1) at San Diego Chargers (2-3) Sunday, 8:20 pm Eastern – NBC
SBG Global Opening Line: Chargers - 6 , Total 44.5
The San Diego Chargers face what is almost a must-win game on Sunday as they host the New England Patriots. The Chargers are 2-3 and a loss would send them to 2-4 and put them in serious trouble. They have to travel to Buffalo and face the Saints in London this month so winning on Sunday is very important. "Make no mistake about it: This is a critical time for our football team," San Diego's LaDainian Tomlinson said. "These next (three games) before the bye are very critical for us. To me, this is going to determine what type of team we're going to be this year." Getting a win against the Patriots will not be easy even though Tom Brady is not throwing the ball against them. Backup Matt Cassel threw for a career-high 259 yards last week at San Francisco as the Patriots won 30-21 to go to 3-1 on the year. SBG Global reports that early NFL betting has the public taking Patriots on the Road.
The Chargers have lost their three games by a total of 10 points so the game on Sunday should be close. A big key for the Chargers will be getting Tomlinson on track. He has run for only 331 yards through five games this season. It may not get any easier against the Patriots who have beaten the Chargers each of the last two years in the playoffs. "It's very critical, crucial, whatever you want to call it. To me, it's definitely a must-win for us," Tomlinson said.
