“I want to hear it ASAP, louder when L.T. is about to get the ball and going to break another record or something.” said NFL sacks leader Shawne Merriman. The New England Patriots will be traveling across the country only to be confronted with a hostile Southern California crowd whos decibel level might impede in Tom Brady’s play calling. Not to mention that the Pats will be facing a 14-2 record home-field advantage team. It has already been announced that no more tickets to Sunday’s playoff game will be sold to Southern California residents. Me being from Cali I wouldnt mind watching the game at home with an ice cold corona and a bet on the Chargers.The teams have faced off only once in the playoffs, at Balboa Stadium in San Diego in the 1963 AFL title game. The Chargers won 51-10 behind a big game from another outstanding running back– 206 yards rushing and 123 yards receiving by Keith Lincoln. The last meeting in San Diego came in 2002 when the Chargers won 21-14 against the Patriots, the defending Super Bowl champions at the time. Those were different teams in different seasons, but playing at home should fire up the Chargers on Sunday.

The pick here is defintely Da Bears. Take the Bears to cover by 10 at home. They are 100% perfect ATS as a 7.5 to 10 point favorite the last 3 seasons. I say bet on the Bears defense to shut down this Seahawks offense completely. I would not be surprised if they held them to 10 points or less. The Bears have outscored their opponents by an average of over 12 points per game at home this season, while Seattle is 0-4 ATS against NFC North opponents this season.
