Philip Rivers and the Los Angeles Chargers offense have been sensationa

The veteran quarterback noted this week as they prepare for Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos that things can turn south quickly."We haven't won six in a row in a while Isaac Rochell Jerseys 2019 , but it can be a one-game losing streak just like that. So I think, again, it's week to week," Rivers said. "Again, now we've reset and get ready for the Broncos on Sunday."The Chargers (7-2) have one of the league's most-balanced offenses. Rivers is third in the league with a 115.4 passer rating and running back Melvin Gordon is third in yards from scrimmage (1,033).Rivers has been sacked only 12 times, third least among quarterbacks who have started nine or more games. But the Broncos have one of the NFL's best pass-rushing duos in Von Miller and Bradley Chubb, who have combined for a league-high 17 sacks.Miller, who has nine sacks this season, has sacked Rivers 15 times since entering the league as the second overall pick in 2011. That is the most by an active player against an active QB."I'm a big Philip Rivers fan. I feel like he's always played great White Darius Philon Jerseys , but the difference this year is he doesn't have as many interceptions," Miller said. "He can make all the throws but he don't take all the shots. He is still accurate as hell, the running game is lights out, and he has a pretty good team."Miller added that the biggest difference with the Chargers this season is they are relying more on the running game with Gordon and Austin Ekeler, which has allowed Rivers to take fewer risks.Chubb, the fifth overall pick in last April's draft, has 6 1-2 of his eight sacks over the past four games. Chubb said he got to meet Rivers last season at North Carolina State when he came in to talk to the team."He throws the ball out quick. It's making sure that when I get there, I make sure I try to get the ball out," Chubb said. "He's kind of a bigger guy, he's not going to try to move around too much. But a lot of guys slip off of him. If I get to him Darius Philon Jerseys 2019 , just make sure I secure it and get the ball up."Rivers is tied for fourth in the league with 21 touchdown passes and has thrown two or more in nine straight games. Only five quarterbacks have done it in 10 or more straight games. He has thrown two or more TDs the past three times the Chargers have faced the Broncos.Denver (3-6) is rested after having its bye last week, while the Chargers return to StubHub Center for the first time in six weeks. Chargers coach Anthony Lynn said he sees a lot of similarities between this year's Broncos and his team last year, which was 3-6 before winning six of its last seven."This team (Denver) has lost four of the six games to division leaders, and they were close games. So this is a good football team," Lynn said. "So, you know, I think it's a matter of time that this team gets going on a streak, but we're just trying to prevent that from being this week."Here are other things to watch in the meeting of AFC West rivals:GORDON'S STREAKGordon has five straight games of at least 120 scrimmage yards and a touchdown. Only four players in NFL history have done it in six straight games or more. Coincidentally, the last to do it was the Chargers' LaDainian Tomlinson in 2006.FREEMAN'S RETURNBroncos RB Royce Freeman, who has missed the last two games due to an ankle injury White Austin Ekeler Jerseys , is likely to be back for this week. Freeman is part of a prolific rookie trio that also features RB Phillip Lindsay and WR Courtland Sutton. They have combined for 1,462 yards from scrimmage, sixth-most yards by a rookie trio through nine games since the 1970 merger.CHALLENGING CORNERBACKBroncos star Chris Harris Jr. is hardly being challenged by quarterbacks this season. In his last game, he locked down on Texans No. 1 receiver DeAndre Hopkins and was only thrown at twice. But he knows that will change Sunday."Against Rivers, I'm excited this week because he always gives me a chance. I know Rivers is going to let me play ball."CENTER OF ATTENTIONWith Matt Paradis on IR with a broken right leg, Connor McGovern will get his first start at center Sunday after moving over from right guard. QB Case Keenum said losing Paradis puts a lot more on everyone's plate."Everyone needs to step their game up," Keenum said. "What's great is that nobody has to be anybody but themselves. Everybody's confident in what their ability is and everybody's confident in what their job is. I think everybody is going to step up on the offensive line, including me, too. I definitely can help out with those guys."KEEP AN EYE ONChargers DE Joey Bosa is back practicing and could he see action. Bosa has missed the first 10 games due to a bone bruise to his left foot, but will be a game-time decision. The Chargers struggled with their pass rush early this season Austin Ekeler Jerseys 2019 , yet have 15 sacks over the past four games.AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Stapleton contributed to this report. Ryan Leaf is taking another step in an impressive comeback story.The former No. 2 overall pick, who has battled addiction and spent time in prison, has been hired by ESPN as a college football analyst.“Ryan has experienced the highs and lows in the game of football, putting him in a position to relate to a wide range of situations players can find themselves in,” said Lee Fitting, ESPN’s senior vice president of production. “He will be able to rely on those experiences — including an unbelievable college career where he was an All-American and Heisman Trophy finalist — in his analysis, making him a tremendous asset for our team.”Leaf will work with play-by-play announcer Clay Matvick and will call games mostly on ESPN2 and ESPNU. He has worked for the Pac-12 Network, and co-hosted a show on SiriusXM’s Pack-12 channel, as he has begun to develop his broadcasting career.He’s clearly grateful for the opportunity, as evidenced by his social media post last night.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Thank you to everyone who supported me along this journey.

And I can’t believe it. I lay my head down every night with a ton of gratitude.”His story has been a fascinating one, and now he gets a chance to help others tell theirs.
