OAK v SD- thoughts?

[ThaHero]

I like Oakland. Here's why:

1. SD is coming off a physical game in a short week. Even Carolina had trouble vs. Arizona and ATL lost to Seattle. Granted they arent travelling as far, but NE and PITT in back to back games is tough.

2. SD main weakness is the pass. Big Ben passed very well against them. Now they play Collins who hasnt thrown an intercepton all year vs. dome very good defenses in NE, PHI, and even DAL. LT will have a big game but I think Moss will have an even bigger one.

3. The idea that "team a beat team b therefore they are better than team c" doesnt work. Dallas lost to Oakland and blew out Philly. Everyone was on Phi and thought the line was suspect. Just because Philly beat Oakland and Dallas didnt means nothing. So yeah, SD beat NE who beat OAK, but dont fall into that trap.
