Coach Talk

Wolf of Wall Street
Listen Wolf of Wall Street, the good news is that we took this matchup by almost six points. Even better news is that we've proven we're better than this, as our scoring average through 10 weeks was 150.9. So yes, we're happy to have gotten this victory, but let's also "regress" back up to where we know we can be!
Runs Like a Gurley
Your starting QB tossed four interceptions and just a single touchdown? We might need to go back and review the game tape. Was Philip Rivers really that sloppy from the pocket, or was the Chiefs secondary just that stout defending the pass? This is the sort of decision you'll have to make... Runs Like a Gurley. The Chargers have a bye next week, so fortunately you've got some extra time to ponder that one!
