The New England Patriots, as you may have heard, are really good.

They are two wins away from joining the 1972 Miami Dolphins as the only undefeated teams in NFL history. First step towards getting there involves defeating the San Diego Chargers on Sunday in the AFC Title Game.

Though, if you listen to the Chargers, it's the Patriots that should be afraid of them.

Huh?

You can't make this stuff up. I applaud San Diego for not backing down and not being in awe of a team that is on the verge of creating a little history. However, their outright defiant attitude isn't just a little shocking, I think it's kind of crazy.

Said Chargers (perhaps slightly delusional) ringleader Igor Olshansky, of the Patriots: "Seriously, I mean, they are more worried than we are."

This may be a good time to remind Olshansky that when the two teams met in week two, the Patriots won 38-14, but I guess that doesn't matter.

After all, the Chargers have won nine in a row so they can "talk the talk."

Then again, the Patriots have won 17 in a row, so they can "walk the walk."

You get the feeling the Chargers like talking and come Sunday they very well might be walking...right out of the playoffs.

Trust me, Igor. You're right, there is one team that should be worried--you should know better than anyone, after all, you're on that team.
