http://www.yardbarker.com/rss/team/45 Recent articles about the San Diego Chargers en-us Wide receiver Greg Camarillo was in the spotlight Tuesday when several members of Dolphins' traveling party appeared at a luncheon at Duffy's in Palm Beach Gardens. The group arrived a few minutes late and Camarillo explained why: "It's a long drive." Longer, apparently, than they realized. What the team does realize ...

And while it doesn’t fit in with the “Whatever” version of Jay Cutler we’ve envisioned at KSK, the @NotJayCutler Twitter feed is probably as close to reality as good ol’ @KingLaserface. Which is to say: VERY close.

That gave the Chargers receiver four inches of vertical advantage before he took a step, left his feet or made a cut to confound Corey Webster.

Eric Weddle, after perhaps the game of his career, was the last player off the field. His smile was ear to ear as he jumped up (way up) to chest-bump big Marcus McNeill.

When a team blows a game that it looked like it was going to win. That was the case with the Giants this evening. They outplayed the Chargers for most of the game, but in the end, they lost when Philip Rivers engineered several drives that gave the Chargers a thrilling a 21-20 victory.
