Chargers Make It 24-0 Before Halftime

October 15th, 2012 - 8:05pm by Tyler EverettOther posts by

Just before halftime, the Chargers added their third first-half touchdown to go up 24-0. The march covered 66 yards in 10 plays and took 3:56 off the clock.

The Chargers reached midfield with runs for 5 and 4 yards by running back Ryan Mathews combined with Philip Rivers’ completions of 7 yards to tight end Antonio Gates and 2 yards to tight end Randy McMichael.

A defensive holding penalty then moved San Diego to the Denver 43-yard line, and a 10-yard run by Mathews put San Diego on the Broncos’ 33-yard line. Another Mathews run, this one for 3 yards, set up second-and-7, with Mathews picking up 6 yards on a burst up the middle.

The Chargers converted third-and-1 on the following play on a short gain to the 23-yard line by running back Jackie Battle.

San Diego picked up 12 more when Rivers found running back Ronnie Brown on the following play. On first-and-10 from the 11, Rivers threw his second touchdown pass of the night to tight end Antonio Gates.

After preparing for an uncommon opponent in the Packers — a team they hadn’t faced in 4 years –- the Denver Broncos are now getting set for a meeting with a squad they’re very familiar with.

The division-rival San Diego Chargers travel to Denver Sunday and they enter the contest off to a hot start, boasting a 3-1 record.

“It’s definitely a better first quarter than we’ve had in the past years,” quarterback Philip Rivers said in a conference call earlier. “We still have to keep getting better. We certainly haven’t played our best yet, but it is nice to be winning as we are improving.”
