“It was a special day, if it is the last one”, an emotional Rivers said. San Diego wide receiver Lance Alworth, coached by Davis with the Chargers, caught five passes for 160 yards and a touchdown. On the same note, Rivers did have a pair of interceptions and yet, he finished the game with a 106.7 passer rating. And although Rivers and Gates have had far more decorated careers, with 13 Pro Bowls between them, Floyd earned admiration as a trusted deep threat, one who now is tied for 45th all-time in yards per reception (17.3). “Certainly you want to win those games, you don’t want to go down the way it did, but that would be the positive to take out of it”. “But they didn’t end so well at there today”.
San Francisco lost running back Shaun Draughn to a secondquarter knee injury and right guard Marcus Martin to a concussion in the fourth quarter against the Bengals.
“It was so hard trying to stay focused”, Floyd said.
Just when you think things can’t get any worse, they do.
He was not the only one feeling sentimental about his retirement.
“I didn’t feel like the effort was the issue”, Campbell said. “When they were playing that music…and seeing that video, I had a hard time calling the next play in the huddle”.
Philip Rivers struggled with his composure and not because the San Diego Chargers snapped a five-game home losing streak. “McCoy said. “… He is a playmaker and we are very fortunate to have him here”. “I just thought he was one of the guys that I would say when I challenged the players, he is kind of what I was looking for, the way that he went out and competed and did his job”.
Many questions remain about the Chargers’ fate. However, there is plenty of uncertainty surrounding the Raiders and Chargers franchises when they face each on Thursday Night Football (NFL Network, 5:30 p.m. PT/8:30 p.m. ET).
The good part about the game is that there are only two games left and then we get to relax from the Dolphins for a bit. Dolphins RT Jason Fox started in place of Ja’Wuan James….
Campbell did not have an update on the four but said the preliminary indications on Pouncey, McCain (knee) and Misi (back) “didn’t sound good”.
