DEN-SD grades: Chargers rookies shine in low-scoring win

San Diego Chargers 21, Denver Broncos 13

Here are the top-graded players and biggest takeaways from the Chargers’ 21-13 win over the Broncos:

Quarterback grade: Trevor Siemian, 40.5

The book is out on Siemian

Teams are figuring out the Denver quarterback: Force him to throw deep. And chances are he still won’t. Even with the Broncos behind late in the game and needing multiple scores, Siemian still refused to throw anything other than underneath routes. On the day he completed only one of his nine attempts targeted 10-plus yards down the field.
