san fran (-1) 2 units. a lot of factors working against san fran today. 3rd straight road game. west coast team playing early game on the east coast. frostbite from last week. but I think those are all far outweighed by one simple fact... WE FINALLY GET TO BET AGAINST CAM NEWTON IN A PLAYOFF GAME!!! I think I hear the hallelujah chorus. ok, I'm also trusting harbaugh not to coach like a pussy, as he did in the first matchup when he kicked a fg instead of going for it on 4th and 1 at the 2 yard line. hopefully he's coaching to win today, instead of coaching not to lose.
sd (ML) 1 unit to win 3. the chargers defense has actually been fairly solid lately. despite manti te'o wandering around out there like when your mom made you let your little brother play football with you. he's completely useless and you just hope he doesn't get hurt. anyway, after they allow denver's obligatory td on the opening drive, they should settle down and play 'em very tough again. on the other side of the ball - news flash - the loss of von miller is huge**.
**I have not been able to confirm this, but there is a rumor that the chargers offered manti te'o to the broncos today AND $100K cash with the stipulation that te'o plays every defensive snap in miller's place.
