Melvin Gordon will be able to return after the bye week from a hamstring injury that kept him out of their game against the Tennessee Titans.Even without Gordon Color Rush Keenan Allen Jersey , the Chargers edged the Titans 20-19 at Wembley Stadium on Sunday.Gordon, who entered the weekend third in the league with 466 rushing yards, was added to the injury report on Saturday. He was held out of practice a day earlier after the Chargers crossed the Atlantic for what coach Anthony Lynn said was a precautionary measure.The running back warmed up before the game, but Lynn decided that he wasn't ready for a full workload against Tennessee and hopes to have him back when Los Angeles travels to face the Seattle Seahawks on Nov. 4."Obviously, we're better with Melvin Gordon, but I just felt like I had to protect him today because I don't want this to be a lingering thing," Lynn said. "I want to get him back for Seattle and he's got a bye week off. He'll be rehabbing and getting healthy, and hopefully, we'll have a full-speed Melvin back in a couple weeks."The Chargers handed a first career start to second-year running back Austin Ekeler, who finished with 42 yards on 12 carries and also caught five passes for 26 yards.Gordon ran for 132 yards and three touchdowns in the road win against the Cleveland Browns on Oct. 14 and had surpassed 100 rushing yards in two of his last three games.Behind Gordon, Los Angeles had the league's fifth-ranked rushing offense at 137.3 yards per game but was held to just 47 yards on the ground by Tennessee's 26th-ranked run defense."Frustrated," Gordon said after the win. "I'll be back next game."Here's what else we learned in the Chargers' victory:PLAYING TO WINTitans coach Mike Vrabel said he will continue to coach aggressively after the go-ahead 2-point conversion failed with 31 seconds remaining.Vrabel has made several aggressive play calls since being hired as the Titans' coach before this season and acknowledged that the decision to go for it was inspired in part by the team's two-game losing streak."I'm just trying to do what's best for the team," Vrabel said. "I'm trying to find a way to win a football game and haven't done a very good job the last three weeks."The Titans only allowed quarterback Marcus Mariota to be sacked twice after he was dropped 11 times in the 21-0 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in the previous game, and Derrick Henry scored Tennessee's first touchdown since the closing minutes of the road loss to the Buffalo Bills on Oct. 7."Getting in the end zone was a huge step forward for us, but obviously, it's all for nothing if you don't win the game Youth Russell Okung Jersey ," left tackle Taylor Lewan said.EYES ON THE PRIZEQuarterback Philip Rivers said that the victory, which moved the Chargers to 5-2 this season, will galvanize the team as it prepares to chase down the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC West.The Chargers have reached the playoffs just once in the last eight seasons and narrowly missed out last year after finishing 9-7."Everybody enjoys winning, but (this team enjoys) winning together," Rivers said. "It's as excited as I've seen a locker room postgame in a while — just the energy. It's hard to win in this league."SHARPER IMAGETitans wide receiver Tajae Sharpe could return from the bye week with a greater role in the offense after catching seven passes for a career-high 101 yards, including five for 75 yards on third down, on Sunday."The more you perform and you make players, the more opportunities come your way," Vrabel said. "Being able to convert third downs in this league is critical, and so Tajae has been a great asset for us to convert those."Sharpe, in his third year out of UMass, missed all of last season with a foot injury. He had not caught seven passes in a game since his debut on Sept. 11, 2016, when he had 76 yards in a 25-16 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Bad penalties, bad decisions, bad coaching.And bad losses.They occurred all over the NFL on Sunday. The Jaguars Youth Dan Feeney Jersey , Cardinals, Chargers and Falcons all will be shaking their heads the way their fans are about how they blew games.At least the Panthers went down gambling to win, missing a 2-point conversion 鈥?the pass play would have worked but Cam Newton missed a wide-open receiver in the end zone. The others either made suspect choices or played not to lose.And, naturally, they lost."This is as tough as it gets," Jaguars defensive end Calais Campbell said after his bunch blew a 16-0 lead to Pittsburgh and lost on a last-second touchdown by Ben Roethliberger. "There are going to be some games you definitely lose and you'll definitely win. But when it comes down to that last play, and you're on the losing side of it, those hurt, especially in a situation where we're a desperate team in need of a win."And a team that got too many field goals, yet got comfortable with that 16-point edge. Jacksonville stopped being as aggressive as it had been earlier in dominating the Steelers, and pretty much dropped from postseason contention at 3-7."If people are in here and they're content 鈥?not saying anybody is 鈥?but if people are content with losing and things not going right," star cornerback Jalen Ramsey said, "then that's not the type of guys you want on the team and that's not the type of environment you want to have."The environment might be worse in Arizona, where first-year coach Steve Wilks saw his club make several critical errors down the stretch. That led to a 23-21 loss to Oakland, of all teams 鈥?the Raiders were the only team with just one victory heading into the weekend 鈥?that never should have been a defeat.A dropped pass by running back David Johnson hurt. An unnecessary roughness penalty against Cardinals tight end Jermaine Gresham cost 15 yards and stopped the game clock. On the next play, Johnson ran 57 yards for what was sure to be the clinching score http://www.authenticlosangeleschargers.com/cheap-brandon-mebane-jersey , only to have the play called back on a holding call against tight end Ricky Seals-Jones.Two plays later, the Cardinals punted. The Raiders drove 63 yards against a modified prevent defense and won as the clock expired on Daniel Carlson's 35-yard field goal."It was just a dumb play by me," Gresham, a nine-year veteran, said after the game. "I turned around and saw my guy on the ground. We're not coached to that. We're not taught that. They didn't bring me in here to do that, and it was stupid. I cost us the game."Not entirely, but he helped.The Chargers had plenty of culprits, too. Their six-game winning string ended when a conservative defense couldn't prevent Denver from going 86 yards in 1:51 for Brandon McManus' winning 34-yard field goal as time expired.Los Angeles made mistakes throughout, hardly looking like a wild-card front-runner. Philip Rivers threw two interceptions and on a third-down play on LA's final drive, he seemed to panic and threw the ball at a receiver's feet. That led to a punt, but also gave Denver more time for its final drive than it should have gotten.The Chargers committed 14 penalties, including 10 in the first half. Mike Badgley, who made three field goals, also missed an extra point. Denver won 23-22."The crucial mistakes that we've been able to stay away from, we didn't today," Rivers said.Championship candidates avoid those Color Rush Derwin James Jersey , especially against a weaker opponent.Atlanta has had plenty of reasons to struggle, particularly a slew of early-season injuries that have worn on a good roster. But the Falcons had won three straight before a poor performance in Cleveland, and they exacerbated their issues with a difficult-to-watch showing late in a 22-19 loss to Dallas on Sunday.Four of the team's six losses have come either on the opponent's final possession or with the Falcons denied on their final opportunity. Simply put, the Falcons have folded under pressure."It's aggravating at the end of the day," said cornerback Robert Alford. "... We did do some good things today. We can't just hold our heads down. But at the end of the day we've got to learn to finish games."This time, the Cowboys had little difficulty moving 51 yards to Brett Maher's winning 42-yard kick.If your team is going to lose late, at least do it the way Carolina did 鈥?going for it, not backing off or making egregious errors."When you make some errors we made today in critical moments, you open yourselves up to get beat, and that's what happened today," Rivers said. "We had every opportunity to close it out, and we just didn't get it done." Custom Chicago Bears Jerseys
