Missing Joey Bosa, Chargers losing streak to Chiefs climbs to nine

CARSON, Calif. -- Same old Chargers, right?

Philip Rivers begs to differ. He sees no similarities between Sunday's season-opening, 38-28 setback to the Kansas City Chiefs and what happened a year ago when the Los Angeles Chargers made their L.A. debut.

You remember that inauspicious introduction, with the Bolts starting 0-4, including three straight losses at the team's temporary home, the StubHub Center.

But Rivers isn't buying that the Chargers are cursed. He believes the Bolts washed away the stench of previous subpar seasons with the way his team played down the backstretch of 2017, winning nine of their final 12 games.
