San Diego’s D.J. Fluker Body Slams Sio Moore, Receives Unnecessary Roughness Penalty (GIF)

Found October 07, 2013 on NESN.com:
PLAYERS: D.J. Fluker,  Sio Moore,  Philip Rivers
TEAMS: San Diego Chargers,  Oakland Raiders
Philip Rivers can rest easy knowing that his offensive line will do anything and everything to keep him out of harm’s way. In a play that was probably missed by most, as the Raiders-Chargers game didn’t kick off until 11:35 EST, San Diego’s D.J. Fluker pulled a wrestling move out of his bag of tricks. During the third quarter, Oakland linebacker Sio Moore attempted to blitz Moore, but Fluker ensured that didn’t happen. Fluker got under the linebacker, lifted him off his feet and dropped him to the ground. The offensive lineman was flagged for a personal foul on the play, with the referee viewing the move as a body slam. Check out the play that you missed while you were sleeping in the GIF below, courtesy of @cjzero. Filed under: Anna Fogel, Headlines, NFL

Danny Woodhead is the second coming

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  October 06, 2013
You resisted making the comparison because it had seemed too easy. But then the little man in the Chargers uniform lined up in the slot and the defense made the decision to stick a linebacker on him and the little man ran past that linebacker and caught a perfect pass in stride in the end zone. And you had no choice but to exclaim “Philip Rivers has his Sproles back!” We can...
