San Diego coach Mike McCoy would have none of that.
DENVER (AP) — The Denver Broncos took turns picking off Philip Rivers in a 27-19 win over the San Diego Chargers on Sunday.
The Broncos only turned one of those third-quarter takeaways into points, however, and that allowed the hard-luck Chargers (3-5) to stay in it until the end.
Juwan Thompson, promoted from the practice squad Saturday, scored from the 1 to make it 24-13. But the Chargers got into the defensive act themselves when cornerback Casey Hayward returned a tipped pass from Trevor Siemian to Jordan Norwood 24 yards for a touchdown that made it 24-19.
"All indications are that Wade is doing great and he will be back quickly," coach Gary Kubiak said afterward.
Booker fumbled at the San Diego 2 and linebacker Jatavis Brown recovered after T.J. Ward's 23-yard interception set up the Broncos at the Chargers 7 minutes later.
San Diego's last gasp ended at midfield on an incompletion to Gordon when Rivers was hit for the 17th time, this one coming from Derek Wolfe.
Rivers' pass went off receiver Tyrell Williams' hands and Roby spun around and plucked the ball out of the air. He quickly found the sideline — just like he learned from Talib, who has nine career interception returns for touchdowns — slipped past tackle Joe Barksdale and outraced Rivers into the end zone.
DAWDLING DENVER : A week after holding Houston to three-and-outs on its first two drives, Denver's dawdling defense again surrendered a touchdown on its first series. That makes six times in eight games the Broncos have allowed a TD on an opponent's first drive.

"I got on the headset a couple of times and he told me shut the hell up, he's got it,Discount Nike NFL China Wholesale," said Kubiak, who gave Herring a game ball.
DIDN'T COUNT: Roby's pick-6 came a few minutes after DeMarcus Ware's strip-sack was overturned on review, even though it appeared he had his hand on the football as Rivers was about to release it. Linebacker Corey Nelson, making his first career start in place of Brandon Marshall (hamstring), scooped up the ball and returned it to the San Diego 22. Ware was making his first start since breaking his right forearm in Week 2.
"We called the plays we did. We didn't finish them. We didn't score," McCoy said. "We called what we did. It didn't work. I'm not going to second-guess it now."
"They're tough to deal with," sighed Rivers, the latest QB to leave Denver bruised and battered.
San Diego running back Melvin Gordon was blocked into the 69-year-old assistant by Von Miller and Phillips was strapped to a backboard and carted off the field in a scary scene that concluded with him giving a thumbs-up on his way to the tunnel.
With linebackers coach Reggie Herring taking over Denver's defensive calls, the Broncos had a goal-line stand in the closing minutes and picked off Rivers twice more in the second half.
"After the fact, you go, 'Shoot,Dwight Powell Jersey, maybe we should have run it once or twice down there," Rivers said.
"I thought that play was a sack," Miller said. "That's right in his backyard,Football jerseys china, legendary. Take a couple of weeks off and he's right back like he's never missed a step."
That sets up an AFC West showdown in Oakland next weekend between two 6-2 teams — the up-and-coming Raiders and the reigning Super Bowl champs who are winning the same way they did last year: with defense, defense, defense.
Defensive coordinator Wade Phillips was taken to a hospital after getting knocked down during Roby's return in the second quarter. He was released a couple of hours later and is expected back at work Monday.
The 2-point try failed and Brandon McManus' 22-yard field goal made it an eight-point game with five minutes left.
THE APPRENTICE: Roby, starting in place of Pro Bowl cornerback Aqib Talib (lower back), gave Denver a 10-7 lead with a 49-yard interception return in the second quarter.

The Broncos hit Rivers 17 times, sacked him four times and intercepted three of his passes, including Bradley Roby's 49-yard pick-6 that started it all.
The Chargers reached the Denver 2 with three minutes remaining but threw four consecutive incompletions without handing off to Gordon, who had 111 y
