Week One - Monday Night Slammer (Game 2)

Game: San Diego Chargers vs. Kansas City Chiefs
Line-O/U: -4
Pick: San Diego Chargers
Reason: The Chiefs don't have half the talent that the Chargers have. With Rivers behind center and rookie Ryan Matthews ready for his debut, the Chargers look like they are ready to hand it to the Chiefs. Not only will the Chargers be able to run it with a 4.0 average YPC (yards per carry), but they will also have over 300 passing yards with Rivers slinging the ball to Gates and Floyd. Also, the special teams for San Diego is extremely dangerous with Sproles ready to take off. The offense of the Chiefs is their best unit and the reason Twitpicks is so "high" on the Chargers is because of Matt Cassel. Cassel will be ready throw some balls to the wrong team, and the Chargers are going to make him throw because they will be focused on the dangerous Jamaal Charles and Thomas Jones. If the Chargers can stop this highly efficient rushing attack, then they will win by two scores or more. If not, this game may be closer then people think, but in the end the Chargers will prevail by at least the spread.
