Carson Palmer completing deep balls as if he was Daryle ''The Mad Bomber'' Lamonica. Michael Bush bowling over defenders on his way to career night. Kamerion Wimbley and a physical defensive line overpowering a banged-up San Diego offensive line.

The Chargers (4-5) have lost four straight, Kansas City (4-4) lost last week to winless Miami and Denver (3-5) has struggled all season.
