THIS TEAM IS MORE THAN JUST ADEQUATE AT KICKER
The Chargers had a legitimate weapon against the Bengals in Michael Badgley. The rookie kicker made all four of his field goal tries and a pair of extra points to outscore three teams on Sunday, including the Rams. Badgley's output included a franchise-record 59-yard field goal as time expired in the second quarter. “He hasn’t been a kicker his whole life, so he has a little more — not that being a kicker your whole life is a negative, by any means — but I’ve seen him throw the football,” quarterback Philip Rivers said.
