Week 13: at San Diego Chargers

Maybe one of the most surprising teams at this point in the season is the San Diego Chargers. In the best division in the league they are still in the race. At 4-5 they could easily be 7-2 had the ball bounced their way a couple of times. That’s life in the NFL.

And if you thought the Bucs were slaughtered by injuries the Chargers have had guys go down left and right. With star receiver Keenan Allen and running back Danny Woodhead going down so early in the season the team was written off. With the emergence of holdout Joey Bosa this team is not out of it by any means.

Melvin Gordon is in a complete 180 of what he was last year and has made this offense along with Philip Rivers, respectable. In a stadium where they have almost as bad home field advantage as Tampa I feel the Bucs can pull off the upset this week and edge out the Super Chargers 33-30. (4-8)
