Where's Jake Plummer when you need him?

During Jake the Snake's QB days in Denver, the rivalry between the Chargers and Broncos was predictable.Plummer would win the games in Denver with his smartsand feet, always making two or three big plays.Meanwhile, coach Mike Shanahan would do a masterful job catching the Chargers' defense off guard with his running attack.

In the rematch in San Diego, the Chargers would keepPlummer in the pocket and pound him. The series usually was a split.Now that Plummer has retired to Idaho, theChargers-Broncos series is unpredictable.
