Chargers fall short in Green Bay, 27-20

The Texans (2-4) started emptying the stadium midway through the fourth after Andre Hal returned an interception 41 yards for a touchdown and a 31-14 lead. Kickoff is slated for 1:05 p.m.

The Chargers’ rookie running back grew up in Kenosha in southeastern Wisconsin and stayed in-state to play, having a record-setting college career with the Badgers.

– Genaro C. Armas reporting from Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers jumped out to a 14-3 lead in the first quarter thanks to two touchdowns by James Starks, one by a 65-yard run and one on a 5-yard catch from Rodgers, and never trailed.

– S Ha Ha Clinton-Dix registered the first forced fumble of his career on a second-quarter run by RB Melvin Gordon, and LB Clay Matthews’ recovery of the fumble was his first since November 15, 2009, vs. Dallas.

Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers threw for 503 yards in Green Bay Sunday.

The Lions win! The Lions win!

At first, acting on reflex, McCoy sent Josh Lambo and the field goal unit out.

DETROIT – A win, finally. Which team will capture the big Week 6 victory? On fourth-and-goal with 20 seconds remaining, Rivers went to Woodhead to his right in the flat, but Randall closed and broke it up to save the game.

Rivers is the first to throw for 500 yards without throwing an interception whose team lost. Would his presence have changed the outcome of the final drive? Packers kicker Mason Crosby extended the Packers’ lead to a touchdown by kicking a 28-yard field goal with just under three minutes left. This time it was one of the longer touchdown scores of the season for the Packers, as Starks ended up with both of the first two touchdowns of the game.

Jones had never even taken a snap in a regular-season game before facing Arizona on Sunday. Jones hit Bryant for an 8-yard score to give the Steelers the lead. But there are waves of pass rushers beyond the veteran duo.

The Chargers might be favored in their next five games, and must win at least four of them. With Campbell preaching a more fun and physical approach, the Dolphins finished with six sacks and intercepted Marcus Mariota twice. He put nearly no weight on his left leg as he was helped off the field.

But the Packers came up with their most important stop at the end. Bryant caught six passes for 137 yards in his first action of the season. “It was a competitive match, but we kept them out of the end zone”.

– Will Graves reporting from Pittsburgh. Referee Ed Hochuli checked on Vick as the quarterback stood up after the play. The rookie picked up a first down with a few tough running, but landed awkwardly on his left knee.

Dunlap, Watt and Chris Hairston, who has started at left tackle the last two games, all missed practice Wednesday, while right guard D.J. Fluker and Franklin were limited.

Aqib Talib and the Denver Broncos’ defense keep stealing the football and scoring points.

That’s because as much as Rivers as able to get downfield on the Packers defense, the Chargers weren’t able to get points on the board when it mattered most.

– Tom Withers reporting from Cleveland. The 49ers defeated the Ravens and the Vikings stopped the Chiefs.

Boger announced the penalty occurred in the field of play.

Every National Football League team should have a John Phillips on their roster, as he’s a natural blocker that will catch a pass in heavy traffic.

Clock problems seem to be following the Pittsburgh Steelers around.

Rivers was able to get the ball out quickly and, unlike the Packers’ receivers, the Chargers actually have a couple guys who can get separation. They worked around Randall Cobb’s badly sprained shoulder.
