HOUSTON -- San Diegos Philip Rivers read all week about the Texans being 5-0 at home. He decided the Chargers should be the ones to end their perfect record in Houston.I dont like getting caught up in too much bulletin-board stuff, but I liked that, the fact this team was unbeaten at home, so lets go change that, Rivers said. It was in my head all week that we could stop the streak.Rivers did just that, throwing for 242 yards and three touchdowns to give the Chargers a 21-13 win over the mistake-prone Texans on Sunday. Dontrelle Inman had 119 yards receiving and a touchdown to help San Diego (5-6) to the victory.The Texans (6-5) were done in by four turnovers, including three interceptions by Brock Osweiler . He was so bad Sunday that coach Bill OBrien was asked twice after the game if hed considered benching him for backup Tom Savage.OBrien said he wouldnt be benched but didnt elaborate, and Osweiler took the blame for the loss.I need to play better for us to win, he said. I feel like our team gave us the opportunity to win today and I didnt play up to what Im capable of doing, and thats on me and Ill get that cleaned up.The Chargers were up by four in the fourth quarter when Rivers evaded the rush and delivered a 25-yard pass to Inman. Kareem Jackson was flagged for unnecessary roughness for a helmet-to-helmet hit on the play, leaving San Diego at the 12-yard line. Rivers delivered a touchdown pass to rookie Hunter Henry on the next play to push the lead to 21-10.Osweilers second interception came after that when he badly overthrew C.J. Fiedorowicz and Dwight Lowery made the easy grab.Houston added a field goal with 37 seconds left and recovered an onside kick. But Osweilers first shot at the end zone was knocked down, and the second one was intercepted as time expired.It was yet another shaky performance for Osweiler, who has struggled in his first year in Houston after leaving to Denver to sign a $72 million contract. He has 12 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. Despite his inconsistent play and a second straight loss, the Texans still have a 1/2 game lead on Tennessee in the weak AFC South .Houston was driving in the third quarter when Lamar Miller fumbled at the end of a 20-yard run. He was initially ruled down, but San Diego challenged the call and it was overturned. But it didnt matter much as an interception by Quintin Demps gave Houston the ball back four plays later.The Texans had a first down at the 6-yard line on their next drive before the offense stalled and they settled for a 19-yard field goal to cut the lead to 14-10 early in the fourth quarter.Rivers found a wide-open Inman for a 52-yard touchdown pass that tied it at 7 in the second quarter. Osweiler was intercepted by Casey Hayward on the next drive, and San Diego took a 14-7 lead when Rivers connected with Tyrell Williams on a 21-yard scoring pass.Our defense has done an outstanding job ... of creating turnovers, San Diego coach Mike McCoy said. Weve made the most of those opportunities.The Texans led 7-0 after a 1-yard touchdown run by Osweiler in the second quarter. Rookie Will Fuller had a 33-yard reception on that drive to put Houston in scoring position.COMIC RELIEFAt the conclusion of the first quarter referee Jeff Triplette turned on his microphone to announce that it was the end of the third quarter. He immediately realized his mistake and corrected himself while laughing and smiling.CHASING 1,000San Diegos second-year RB Melvin Gordon had 70 yards rushing on Sunday to leave him 92 yards away from reaching 1,000 yards for the first time. The last time the Chargers had a 1,000-yard rusher was in 2013 when Ryan Mathews had 1,255 yards.MISSING OUTSan Diego rookie fullback Derek Watt was disappointed he missed a chance to play against his brother J.J. Watt on Sunday with the Texans star defensive end out for the season after back surgery.Obviously that would have been a pretty special experience, Derek Watt said. We never had that opportunity in athletic competition outside of just messing around stuff.UP NEXTChargers : Host Tampa Bay next Sunday.Texans : Play their next two on the road, starting with a trip to Green Bay next Sunday.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Wholesale Nike Air Max Plus Store .

Marion Campbell, a former All-Pro on the?Philadelphia Eagles 1960 championship team who later went on to become their head coach, died Wednesday at the age of 87, the team announced Sunday night.?Marion Campbell will be missed by the Eagles community but also remembered for his spirited impact on our game, Eagles owner Jeff Lurie said in a statement. Like Chuck Bednarik, he was a great two-way player during a special era in NFL history.
