Chargers perform exorcism for entire AFC West

Head in hands, crouched near to the ground, Chargers coach Mike McCoy looked like a man near the end of his rope during another tight game late Thursday night. You'd never know that his team led by eight points with 15 seconds left at the time.

"I was just afraid," Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers told CBS after the game as Denver's final Hail May attempt flew through the San Diego night. "Gosh, I was just afraid that we're about to find out another way (to lose)."

That's the kind of season this has been for the Chargers, but this time no one pulled the ball away from Charlie Brown.
