Los Angeles Chargers (3-6)

Week 10 Results:Lost at Jacksonville, 20-17

Los Angeles lost a close one on Sunday as former Chargers' kicker Josh Lambo connected on a pair of critical field goals late – a 34-yarder with just three seconds left in regulation to tie it and a 30-yard game-winner in overtime.  

The Chargers, who have dealt with more than their fair share of close losses this season, were backed up in their own territory when quarterback Philip Rivers was picked off deep down the sideline by Jaguars' cornerback A.J. Bouye.

That set up Lambo's game-winner, which was partially blocked but still managed to make it through the uprights for the victory.

Rivers completed 21 of 37 passes for two touchdowns and a pick on the afternoon.  

Next Up:The Chargers will host the Buffalo Bills (5-4) next week.
