The San Diego Chargers are expected to get running back Ryan Mathews back next week.

Mathews could have played this week, but was sat out due to a lack of playing time. He has been hampered by a collarbone injury.

However, the doctors have give him full clearance to play. He should put in a full week of practice, and be able to start next week against the Atlanta Falcons.

The Chargers have given him more than six weeks to recover from the injury and expect him to get a full workload when he returns.

Via Fantasy Football Champs  |  September 16, 2012
Chargers RB Curtis Brinkley is starting Sunday's game in favor of Ronnie Brown.Fantasy Spin:Brown is on his last legs. Brinkley handled more carries than the veteran in Week 1 but neither did much against the Raiders. Oakland is getting shredded by Reggie Bush Sunday so it's more likely Brown and Brinkley just aren't very good. Only start Brinkley if you're desperate.

As I'm sure you've discovered by now, I was generally satisfied with what I saw on Monday Night in Oakland.  There is a lot to improve upon, but the biggest thing is that I never felt like the Chargers would inevitably make an asinine play and lose.  That speaks volumes after what we all suffered through last season.  When we were 4-1, we all vented about how the team...

Titans bright spots against the Chargers

Via Total Titans  |  September 17, 2012
Yesterday's game against the San Diego Chargers was really ugly, but it wasn't without a few bright spots. My post-game recap was pretty gloomy, so now it's time for a few reasons for optimism. Jake Locker's mobility was evident again on a big scramble to convert third down. That play also drew a stupid personal foul penalty and sparked a scoring drive...
