Shawne Merriman Out for Season

After a loss in week 1 of the NFL season to the Seattle Seahawks, San Diego Chargers Pro Bowl lineback Shawne Merriman decides he will undergo surgery on his damaged knee. Merriman was the anchor of the highly ranked Chargers defense who will now have to start a 2nd year player in his spot.

Merriman joins New England Patriots quaterback Tom Brady of the list of pro-bowlers to go down in the kickoff week of this NFL season. With the leaders of the two powerhouse AFC teams gone for the season, I would say that the West is open to any contender.
