Patriots vs. Chargers At AFC Championship

The Patriots have one more game to win to reach the Super Bowl, but their opponents are looking to cause the ultimate upset.

The two teams played in Week 2 with the Patriots victorious, 38-14. The game was the Patriots' first since the Spygate videotaping scandal in which head coach Bill Belichick was fined $500,000 and the team was forced to forfeit a first-round pick.

Tom Brady completed 25-of-31 passes for 279 yards and three touchdowns. Randy Moss caught eight passes for 105 yards and two touchdowns in his first home game as a Patriot. Chargers running back LaDainian Tomlinson was held to just 43 yards on 18 carries.

Philip Rivers hopes to return for San Diego this week. The quarterback took about one-third of the snaps in practice. He was hurt last weekend in the 28-24 playoff victory over the defending Super Bowl champion Indianapolis Colts.

Tomlinson, who was also injured in the game against the Colts, said he thought his hyperextended left knee would be OK for him to start, but tight end Antonio Gates' status is still uncertain.

While the San Diego Chargers are dealing with injuries, Moss is dealing with off-the-field troubles. He was recently hit with a restraining order by Rachelle Washington, a native of Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., who said Moss physically abused her and forced her not to seek help.

Moss has denied the allegations, but Belichick has said the team is giving him 100% support in the matter.
