Well hello again, football fans! Welcome to Ten & Six's Week 15 kickoff!
The Vikings managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in a new and exciting way last weekend in Baltimore. Of course, Mike will be here on Saturday to discuss yet another chapter in the Vikings illustrious history of disappointment.
This Thursday, however, brings an intriguing matchup as mustache aficionado Philip Rivers & the Chargers head to Denver to take on pizza franchise/cable TV/neck surgery spokesman Peyton Manning & the Denver Broncos.
Mikey, who takes the W tonight?
San Diego (6-7) at Denver (11-2)
San Diego fans, you know what this week is all to well. This is the week of the year where your dim playoff hopes get flushed down the toilet once again, along with an 8 ounce glass of Phillip Rivers tears (at least).
The Chargers have no chance whatsoever to win this game. They might make it close for one or two quarters, but unfortunately for them, modern NFL games run the course of 4 quarters.
Peyton Manning is going to carve this defense up. Eric Decker might catch another 4 TD's.
I feel for San Diego fans, it can't be easy. Their brand of failure is a special type. The potential for success seems constantly at the finger tips of their favorite franchise, yet just far enough away to ever be grasped and realized. Let us pray for the Chargers and their fans. To win this game on Thursday Night Football, they will truly need divine intervention.
Final Score
Denver Broncos: 31
San Diego Chargers: 20
There you have it, folks. The San Diego Chargers find themselves screwed yet again by the rules of the modern NFL.
