4-5. Previous: . San Diego Chargers. 21. team. 13. Oops. They did it again. San Diego opened up a 10-0 second-quarter advantage and took a 24-21 lead with only 4:04 to play when Philip Rivers connected with Tyrell Williams for a 51-yard score (and subsequent PAT). But the Miami Dolphins came up with 10 points roughly three minutes later and the Bolts found another way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Of course, it was hardly a sharp performance from Rivers. He threw for 326 yards and three scores but was picked off four times, his final miscue returned 60 yards by Dolphins linebacker Kiko Alonso for the deciding touchdown. <p>Next Week: No doubt head coach Mike McCoy and his snake-bitten team will be looking for a few V-8s during their off week. When they return to action in Week 11, the Chargers will make their first trip to Houston since 2010 to face the AFC South leading Texans. Bill O’Brien’s team has yet to lose at home (5-0) in 2016.</p> <p>Playoff hopes: We keep hearing how good the Chargers are despite their record. But the bottom line is that they are two games under .500 and the remainder of the AFC West features the 7-2 Raiders and Chiefs and 6-3 Broncos. And the Bolts already own a 3-5 record within the conference, damaging their wild card chances a bit more.</p>
