He walked off after a few minutes, waving to the cheering fans with his left hand while a trainer held his right arm still for him. Seau played for his hometown San Diego Chargers for 13 years before they cut him loose in 2003.

That's scary.'' Although San Diego Chargers receiver Keenan McCardell said he didn't know of any specific incidents of food poisoning involving Sapp, he understands Sapp's concerns. ``I know what Warren's talking about,'' said McCardell, teammates with Sapp for his final two seasons in Tamp |

Edwards also said a hit on Bengals wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh by San Diego Chargers safety Terrence Kiel was borderline. ``I don't see the need for those two plays,'' he said. ``I really don't.''

| (MySportsbook) - The San Diego Chargers, the NFL's version of the cardiac kids, will aim for their fifth consecutive victory this Sunday when they host the lowly Oakland Raiders in a divisional battle at Qualcomm Stadium.

With the victory, San Diego became the first team in NFL history to win consecutive games when trailing by 17 or more points. The Bolts are also the |

If the coaching staff had any doubts about sticking with the run, Barber said they should watch the San Diego Chargers. Even when they are trailing, they use a balanced attack. ``We got away from it early and never got back to it because we felt like we weren't executing or finding any type of rhythm, but we never got back to it,'' Barber said. ``I felt insignific |

| (MySportsbook) - The Denver Broncos are never happy when they lose at home, but this week's loss had to leave an extra bitter taste in their mouth. The Broncos had a key divisional battle with the San Diego Chargers on Sunday, and wound up losing the game by a 35-27 margin. The thing that really stings for Denver is the fact that the team held a 17-point lead early in the third quarter. The setback dropped Denver (7-3) into second place in the AFC -- just one game behind the Chargers. The loss may have put the |

| (MySportsbook) - It's pretty safe to say at this stage of the season that the San Diego Chargers have developed a flair for the dramatic. The Chargers earned an important victory Sunday night in Denver, as they erased a 17-point second-half deficit to beat the Broncos, 35-27. The comeback win was thrilling to watch, but more importantly for San Diego, beating Denver on the road gave the club the inside track to winning the AFC West title. The Chargers (8-2) now hold a one-game edge over the defending division |

The San Diego Chargers had so many players hurt Sunday night that at one point Marty Schottenheimer wasn't sure he could find 11 men to field a defense. Atlanta, with three-fourths of its defensive line out, was worn down by Jamal Lewis and the Ravens in the second half because there was no way any of the healthy players could rest. Nothing is more damaging to NFL teams than injuries. The league doesn't keep official statistics on them. But this season seems to be one of the worst in recent memory. And |
