Chargers’ Rivers not masking his desire to win AFC West

COSTA MESA —

What’s new with Philip Rivers as he works toward his 16th NFL season?

At minicamp practice Wednesday, the Chargers quarterback wore a dark shield on his helmet.

Very Darth Vader.

“Just having a little fun,” Rivers said.

What may be getting old with Rivers is not winning the AFC West title for so long.

It’s been nearly a decade.

Division winners are more apt than wild cards to reach the Super Bowl.

While none of the West titles in San Diego between 2006-09 led to a Super Bowl berth, Rivers would like to get back on top.
