That is why it is a severe no-no for radio stations to rebroadcast the handicapper shows after the games.

Chargers (+13.5) vs. Patriots
Patriots haven't covered a spread in weeks since the spread shot up astronomically on them every week. The Chargers are out for revenge from last years playoff loss. I'm assuming they will keep it close. Of course, you might want to bet against my pick the way I've been going lately.

Pick Take the Chargers and the points
Patriots 33 Chargers 27

I have a feeling San Diego will cover the spread also, but I am thinking one thing. It is a bitter cold bitch, they are playing in open stadium. I think the score is going under the posted total of 47. We are looking at a lot of dropped passes and fumbles today. 10-32 degrees is one thing, when that temp drops to below 10 the story goes different. I think if this is to be a high scoring game, the running game will be intricate. I am just not sure if Brady's passing game will be a big influence today.

I guess we will see.
