At 5-9 with 2 games left, Dolphins are worse than mediocre
Chargers safety Eric Weddle may have played his last game in San Diego.
Melvin Gordon’s rookie season came to an anticlimactic end on Monday, with the San Diego Chargers placing the rookie running back on the injured reserve with a knee injury.
The Chargers just had their emotional victory last week against the Dolphins in likely their last game in San Diego.
Rivers also had a fumble recovery against Miami.
Campbell said he had no new information on the status of the four players who left the game Sunday because of injuries: tackle Branden Albert (knee), center Mike Pouncey (foot), linebacker Koa Misi (back) and special-teamer Chris McCain (knee).
Rivers completed 26 of 36 passes for 311 yards and three touchdowns.
Could the San Diego Chargers be bolting north?
Instead, he never found the end zone.
The Chargers finally were able to score some points Sunday, after combining to score 34 points in their last 4 games, including a trio of 3 points outings versus 3 AFC West opponents.
NOTES: Chargers LT King Dunlap (ankle) missed his seventh game of the season…. The Chargers out-gained the Raiders 371-247 but Oakland scored on a 5-yard pass from Jeff Hostetler to Tim Brown, a 46-yard field goal by Cole Ford and a 16-yard run by rookie running back Napoleon Kaufman.
After 54 years in San Diego, the Chargers have turned their attention to Los Angeles, where they are proposing a privately funded joint stadium in Carson with the Oakland Raiders.
Second, due to their “air of superiority”, it’s only natural that this team is also among the best in the National Football League in total yards per game.
Woodhead added his third touchdown in the last minute of the second quarter and the Chargers took a 23-0 edge into the locker room.
Some think that the sense it’s ending could be exactly what it takes to kick start a long-suffering effort to finally build a new stadium in San Diego.
“I guess it’s a good thing to do, but people go for 1,000 yards every year so it’s not really a big thing”, he said. With the win, the Chargers do not improve much.
“There was a group of tailgaters right when you pull up at the front gate that I always honk my horn at and they always holler at me”, Rivers said. Philip Rivers is still the leader on this team, but his weapons have been disappointing. He wasn’t limping after the game, but tests show he sustained some damage and with just two weeks in the season remaining, he has been shut down.
The Miami Dolphins were dominated for 60 minutes in a Week 15 meeting with the San Diego Chargers on Sunday, an event that does not even rate the term “contest”.
Matthews caught eight passes for career-high 159 yards, including a 78-yard touchdown strike in Philadelphia’s 40-17 loss to the Arizona Cardinals.
