Larry Johnson must be licking his chops.
KC's rushing attack against Indy's 32nd (last) ranked rushing
defense? Indy is giving up nearly 175 yards/game rushing. That's
25 yards worse than the 31st ranked team. Truly pathetic.
Now, if KC could just come up with a pass rush.

Why? I would prefer to play Indy. Lt can be licking his chops and our
D can handle the Colts. *shrugs* Either way it's just one more step
on our way to Miami. :-)

agreed.
Chefs-Colts looks to be a high-scoring game

If the Colts win, we can't face them until the Conference Championship.
Our first game will be against the Chiefs, Jets, or Patriots.

The Chargers successfully pressured Peyton last year. "Three and outs"
tend to decrease a team's time of possession stat.

Two things make that scenario unlikely:
1) they can't stop the run at all. With our team's line and backs,
we're gonna run right over them.
2) our team can pressure the QB. #1 in team sacks this year.
Our team matches up better vs. the Colts than any other playoff team.

Sigh...to paraphrase Paul Simon: "...A man reads what he wants to read
and disregards the rest."
I began my posts in this thread with "If Indy somehow slows the Chargers
pass rush...", but you insist on repeating #2 (how appropriate) above.

Ray, with all due respect, the Chargers' secondary is anything but
"solid." Yes, they played better this season than last, but that's not
saying a whole lot. Whenever the pass rush was neutralized, as it was
against Arizona, the Chargers' secondary gets taken apart. That's not
inevitable; teams with an authentically good secondary (and a good
coverage scheme) can compensate (within limits) for deficiencies in the
pass rush.
