SAN DIEGO - The oddsmakers say the San Diego Chargers should have an easy afternoon Sunday with the lowly Jacksonville Jaguars, who routinely lose games by double digits. Braydon Coburn Jersey . This citys bandwagon fans think their beloved Bolts will be 6-1 heading into the first meeting of the year with Peyton Manning and the AFC West rival Denver Broncos. Oh, and the Super Bowl is going to be played just a five-hour drive across the desert in Glendale, Arizona. Not so fast, say Philip Rivers and the Chargers, who upset the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks two weeks ago and then went cross country to beat the Buffalo Bills. Overconfident? I dont think so, with the maturity of our team, Rivers said. There is no guarantee to you in this league. Every week is a fight, a battle. The Bolts (2-1), fueled by Rivers passing accuracy, will face a Jaguars team that is 0-3 and has been outscored 119-44. All 32 teams can win any week, Rivers said. I wouldnt be jumping on the bandwagon they are winless. Its the third week, Rivers said. Its not like it is Week 15 and they are winless. That is a different. Were going to get their best shot. We know what we were going to get. Jacksonville hopes its best shot will finally carry some punch now that rookie Blake Bortles is the starting quarterback. Asked whether hes ready for his first start, Bortles said: I dont know. Im going to go out there and prepare this week and do everything that Ive done a€” go over everything I possibly can to get ready and Im going to go play football, he said. Were going to play Sunday whether Im ready or not, so I might as well get as ready as I can possibly be. There are high expectations for the Chargers. The Jaguars are young and inexperienced, especially on offence, and in the second year of a complete rebuild. Theyve lost 21 of their past 35 games by double digits, including four in a row dating to last years finale. Here are some things to watch for when the Jaguars visit the Chargers: BORTLES, PART I: The third pick overall in Mays draft, Bortles showed poise in throwing for 223 yards and two touchdowns in the second half of a 44-17 loss to Indianapolis. He also threw an interception that was returned for a touchdown. Learn from it, move on and try not to make that same mistake again, Bortles said. The Jags had to speed up their timetable for Bortles after Chad Henne struggled and the lopsided losses continued. BORTLES, PART II: Cornerback Brandon Flowers says the Chargers need to jump on the Jaguars early. Its like a new season for them with a new quarterback. Theyve got new life. Its almost like their record is 0-0 right now. Theyve got a new leader, Flowers said. Weve got to make it tough for him. He can throw, he can scramble, he can get out of pressure. He has all the tools. We cant let him get any rhythm. Weve got to take it away. THE REPLACEMENTS: Chargers running back Danny Woodhead is out for the season with a broken leg. Itll take a committee of Donald Brown, Branden Oliver and Shaun Draughn to replace him. Theres few backs in this league who do what he does on third down, so weve got to find ways to fill that void, offensive co-ordinator Frank Reich said. Running back Ryan Mathews remains out with a knee injury and inside linebacker Manti Teo is out indefinitely with a fractured foot. TIGHT END TROUBLE: Chargers tight end Antonio Gates could be in for a big day against Jacksonville. Maybe Ladarius Green, too. The Jaguars have been beaten, burned and bested by just about every tight end theyve faced the past two seasons. Opposing tight ends have totalled 117 receptions for 1,328 yards and 13 touchdowns in the past 19 games against the Jaguars. In Jacksonvilles three games this season, opposing tight ends have combined to catch 25 passes for 293 yards and four scores. Next up: Gates, who has 14 catches for 185 yards and three TDs. Hes very savvy, has a great feel, Jaguars coach Gus Bradley said. He doesnt do things that you would see from normal tight ends that you play. Just unique. ... We have to be fully aware of where hes at. WEST COAST WOES: The Jaguars have lost their past six games on the West Coast, including going 0-4 in California. Jacksonvilles last win in the Golden State came Jan. 2, 2005, at Oakland. The Jags are winless in two trips to San Diego, falling 38-13 in 2010 and 34-21 in 2004. Brian Elliott Jersey . -- Andrew Wiggins is from Canada, Wayne Selden from Massachusetts and Joel Embiid from the African nation of Cameroon. Philadelphia Flyers Jerseys . Paire broke Giraldo twice and lost his serve once in both sets to wrap up the win in 1 hour, 10 minutes. He will next face Pablo Carreno Busta of Spain, who advanced when Jurgen Zopp of Estonia retired with an injury at 5-5 in the first set. SAN JOSE, Calif. -- When Tommy Wingels scored a fluky, short-handed goal in the opening minutes, it was clear this was going to be San Joses night. Wingels scored two goals and Antti Niemi shut Montreal out for the second time this season in the Sharks 4-0 victory over the Canadiens on Saturday night. Wingels opened the scoring with a short-handed goal after Peter Budaj misplayed a shot from centre ice and added another on a deflection to lead the way for the Sharks. "That was a fortunate bounce for us," Wingels said of his first goal. "Well take it. It kind of gave us some momentum in the first there." Matt Nieto also scored and Logan Couture had a goal and two assists for the Sharks, who have won seven straight home games against Montreal since last losing here to the Canadiens in 1999. Niemi made 27 saves to follow up his 2-0 victory in Montreal in October with another shutout as San Jose moved within four points of first-place Anaheim in the Pacific Division. "We want to win our division," Couture said. "That was one of our goals from the start of the year and were close." Budaj was knocked out after allowing two goals in less than 22 minutes as Montreal lost for the third time in four games on a road trip to Arizona and California. "It was a frustrating game and a frustrating road trip," captain Brian Gionta said. "We wanted something better out of it." San Jose took control of the game in a dominant second period, getting goals from Wingels and Nieto in the first half of the period to go up 3-0. Wingels second goal of the game came when a point shot from Matt Nieto hit the inside of his leg on the way into the goal. That led coach Michel Therrien to give an early hook to Budaj, who allowed two goals on the first 11 shots. The change to Dustin Tokarski failed to generate the spark Therrien was seeking as the Sharks continued to attack with the two-goal lead and expanded it when Patrick Marleau set up Nieto for a one-timer from the slot midway through the period. Nieto set up Couture for his 18th goal in the opening minute of the third period to put the game out of reaach. Bernie Parent Jersey. Niemi, making consecutive starts for the first time since Feb. 1-3, was not tested often but was up to the task when challenged, including an early pad save on P.K. Subban and on a short-handed breakaway by Tomas Plekanec late in the third. Niemi has struggled a bit of late and had his playing time cut back as San Jose started backup Alex Stalock in three of the first four games after the Olympic break. But he followed up a 5-3 win over Pittsburgh on Thursday night with another shutout against the Canadiens. "Nemo had to make some saves early, and then he had to make a couple late to maintain the shutout," coach Todd McLellan said. "I thought he was very calm, very solid again." The Sharks got a fortunate break to take a 1-0 lead early in the first period with James Sheppard in the penalty box for tripping. Couture shot the puck in from centre ice that got caught between Budajs pads. Instead of freezing the puck for a faceoff, Budaj stood up and tried to play it but Wingels raced in and poked it into the net for San Joses second short-handed goal in as many games. "We were on the power play and I wanted to play it right away to help and not have a faceoff in our own end," Budaj said. "I didnt have a look to see the player was coming. Thats my mistake." The Sharks werent nearly as effective on their three power plays that included 21 seconds of a two-man advantage. They struggled to get set up in the offensive zone and were sloppy with their passes, generating only one shot on goal in those three opportunities. The power play has been a problem for San Jose in recent weeks with the team going 2-for-48 over the past 15 games. NOTES: Sharks F Raffi Torres got called for boarding on a hard shoulder check into Lars Eller in the second period. Jarred Tinordi took exception and started a fight, negating any power play for the Canadiens. ... Montreal D Douglas Murray got a warm ovation in his first game back in San Jose since being traded by the Sharks to Pittsburgh last March. He delivered an early hit on Nieto and also was on the receiving end of one from Brent Burns. Cheap Heat Jerseys Cheap Bucks Jerseys Cheap Timberwolves Jerseys Cheap Pelicans Jerseys Cheap Knicks Jerseys Cheap Thunder JerseysCheap Magic Jerseys Cheap 76ers Jerseys Cheap Suns Jerseys Cheap Blazers Jerseys Cheap Sacramento Kings Jerseys Cheap Spurs Jerseys Cheap Raptors Jerseys Cheap Jazz JerseysCheap Wizards Jerseys Cheap Warriors Jerseys ' ' '
