Game Of The Week — Week 7

Every week throughout the 2008-2009 football season I am going to pick a “Game of the Week.”
The purpose of this post is to talk about a match-up that I think is the most significant out of all the scheduled NFL games that are going to be played the following Sunday.
After looking at the schedule, my pick for the Game of the Week is …
San Diego Chargers at Buffalo Bills
Sunday, 1:00 p.m. — CBS
Reasons Why:
1. San Diego started off shaky but have looked impressive in recent weeks. I want to see if they can keep that momentum going against a formidable AFC opponent.
2. The Buffalo Bills looked absolutely horrible last week and I wonder how they can bounce back after such a debilitating loss. Trent Edwards got knocked out of the game, literally, last week. Will he be timid now to stay in the pocket and take a hit in order to complete a pass?
3. Both of these teams are AFC Championship contenders. Whoever wins is going to make a profound statement.
4. The Cardinals shredded the Bills defense last week with slant routes and quick passes. San Diego doesn’t have the same attack strategy. Will they try the same offensive attack or stick to the running game. More importantly, will the Bills defense be up to the task?
