Colts Vs. Chargers Wild Card Weekend

This is easily the most intriguing of the Wild Card matchups features the AFC West winning San Diego Chargers hosting The Indianapolis Colts in a rematch of last year’s divisional round. The Chargers finished their season 8-8, they have won their last 4 games to beat the Denver Broncos in the AFC west. The Colts on the other hand have won 9 games in a row and are the hottest team heading into the playoffs with a 12-4 record. In week 12 the Colts and Chargers matched up in an excellent game which featured Philip Rivers throwing for 288 yards and 2 touchdowns and Peyton Manning throwing for 255 yards 2 touchdown and 1 interception. But in the end the colts were too much for the Chargers as they beat San Diego 23-20.

Prediction: With LaDainian Tomlinson’s health in question this week it’s hard to bet against Peyton Manning and the Colts in this one. The Colts will win 30-24.
