Chargers QB Philip Rivers vs Ravens S Ed Reed
Rivers has lit up the Ravens secondary in the past because Reed is undisciplined and fails to protect the deep third of the field. The Chargers don't have much of an offensive line, so Rivers doesn't hesitate throwing deep and tossing the ball around. He has thrown for 17 touchdowns but also been intercepted 14 times. Reed has to maintain discipline because the Chargers are unlikely to mount long drives. They need big strikes. Edge: Even.
