Holy crap it's almost unanimous. And on multiple forums.

I am surprised at how easily they believe we're going to roll over for them. I mean some of these comments aren't even taking us seriously. I certainly hope the Boltz start reading their own press clippings this week.
I mean the playoffs is more about who's hot. And the Boltz have caught lightning in a bottle (pun intended). It will take our biggest effort to win, but I think we'll be up for it.
Some points they are making:
Most of that stuff is anecdotal hogwash. For example I really don't think getting to play Philly magically makes you win the Super Bowl. I also think Rivers' record in Denver has as much to do with us being terrible for the five of his eight seasons he's played us here. Manningis 3-1 against the Chargers as a Bronco.
I do have some concern with the fact that the playoffs is more about getting hot and believing at the right time than how good you were in the regular season. But that doesn't mean we can't come out hot too.
I guess after the first week and a big win when you're considered underdogs you can get pretty excited. But I am kind of surprised.

Some points they are making:
- Manning has never defeated the Boltz in the playoffs.
- Manning has been one and done in the playoffs 8 times in is career.
- They beat us in Denver.
- 6 seeds are 6-2 in the last six years against number one seeds.
- They played the Eagles in their opener so magic dictates they are going to win the super Bowl.
- Rivers is 6-2 in Denver all time.
