Chargers Try And 'Rebound' From Win Over Chiefs
SAN DIEGO (AP) -- Officially, the San Diego Chargers are not in one of their patented slow starts under coach Norv Turner.
Still, at 2-1, the Chargers know they have a lot of work to do, especially after letting the winless Kansas City Chiefs hang around into the 60th minute on Sunday.
The Chargers, who were 15-point favorites, held on to win 20-17 after Eric Weddle intercepted Matt Cassel at midfield with 55 seconds left.
Philip Rivers had two more interceptions, giving him six in three games. The Chargers seemed lethargic trying to hold off a Chiefs team that had been routed by a combined 89-10 in its first two games.
Rivers tried to put it in perspective by saying that even if the Chargers had played their best game, they'd still be 2-1.
Up next is a home game against another winless team, the Miami Dolphins (0-3).
