Week 6 Matchup Info

vs New England Patriots (Neutral matchup) - Philip Rivers suffered a power outage last week - Antonio Gates couldn't come up with the ball (1/12/0 - and his one reception shouldn't have counted as it was a bounce pass); Chris Chambers sprained his ankle and left the game early (he is likely to miss out on this contest); LaDainian Tomlinson wasn't explosive as a receiver (4/22/0 receiving). In the end, Rivers eked out 13/28 for 159 yards, 1 TD and 0 interceptions - the TD to Chambers (3/30/1) saved his fantasy owners from utter ruin, but it wasn't a great game last week. The Chargers have personnel woes aplenty entering week 6 - remember that if you are a Rivers owner.

The Patriots' pass D had mixed results vs. San Francisco last week, limiting J.T. O'Sullivan to 14/29 for 122 net yards, but giving up 3 TDs while also intercepting him 3 times and sacking him once. Miami managed 18/21 for 245 yards, 1 TD and 0 interceptions vs. New England in the contest prior - the Patriots are decent but not spectacular pass defenders, ranking 8th in the NFL averaging 175.3 net yards allowed per game (7 sacks, 5 interceptions), but with 6 passing TDs given up so far.

Two iffy units lock horns in this contest - that sounds about even to us.
