We had a surprisingly rare, dominate Primetime win against San Diego in 2010, against a tough Chargers team desperately trying to get a playoff spot. However, this is week 2. We're not going to be playing like we have nothing to lose. I don't see another blowout/shutout, I see us losing a close one. Frustratingly enough, we'll lose 21-17

It's not his style, but hopefully Marvin will have this team fired up and playing like we have everything to lose.

Maybe he can just get the players playing on emotion and get them fired up under the the basis of "if we don't win this, it's going to be a long road the rest of the year, so let's go out and kick some ass!"

I don't know what the hell was with Dalton, but let's bank on it being a one-week fluke and expect him to show up and play lights-out.

The game got out of control, but I think that, if we just eliminated a few early mistakes and bad breaks, we're playing that game to win.  I don't expect him to make as many stupid throws or bad throws to turn the ball over, especially when we're deep in their territory, and that first interception was just a good play by the defender to tip the ball.  The second interception was just a stupid play and you have to know that he won't do that every week, so we could easily have been up 7-3 with either of those.

We'll beat some Texans ass on Thursday!
