The San Diego Chargers took a 10-7 lead over the Denver Broncos following a 42-yard field goal by kicker Nate Kaeding. The Chargers started on the 50-yard line and got as close as Denver’s four-yard line, but an intentional grounding penalty on Philip Rivers moved the Chargers back 10 yards.
Broncos lineman Kevin Vickerson then had the Broncos’ third sack on Philip Rivers.
