Sunday afternoon in San Diego, the Cincinnati Bengals will try to put their grief a side for a few hours when they take on the Chargers at Qualcomm Stadium.

The biggest story of the week in the NFL will be how the Bengals handle to loss of Chris Henry on the football field. Henry was killed early Thursday after what police described as a domestic dispute with his fiancee.

NFL odds makers like the Charges at home in this one. The Vegas line is sitting at, San Diego -7 with the total in the game set at 43.5.

It is the second time death has stung the Bengals this year, as the wife of defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer died unexpectedly in October. However, the death of a teammate has to hit a little harder.

"He was doing everything right," said Chad Ochocinco. "My grandma always says you never question the man upstairs on decisions he makes. Everyone makes mistakes, but I don't see how Chris was supposed to go already, especially when he was on the right path. Other than that, he's going to be missed."

This game has some major playoff implications. At 10-3, San Diego can secure first place in the AFC West with a Denver loss to Oakland, or with a victory and a Broncos tie. The Chargers will have a first-round bye if they beat the Bengals and Denver and New England lose or tie.

The biggest question in this game will be the emotion of Cincinnati. It will obviously be there, but will it hurt or help the Bengals. I think it will. Even if they can't pull out a victory, this game will be close.

Take the Bengals getting the points.
