SAN DIEGO -- Theyre still the San Diego Chargers, at least for four more home games.Beyond that, the Chargers are uncertain about their future home. At least its not as hyper-hot as last year, when ownership was working with the rival Oakland Raiders on a plan for a stadium in the Los Angeles suburb of Carson. That plan was rejected by NFL owners, who nonetheless gave the Chargers the option to join the Rams in a stadium in Inglewood scheduled to open in 2019.The Chargers then spent most of this year campaigning for a measure that would raise $1.15 billion for a $1.8 billion stadium and convention center annex in downtown San Diego that would replace aging Qualcomm Stadium. All the while, they reminded everyone that they hold the option to move to L.A.Voters called their bluff, voting it down 57-43. It needed 66.7 percent to pass.Chargers chairman Dean Spanos said hell consider his options but wont announce a decision until after the season.Interestingly enough, their first game since Election Day is at home against the Miami Dolphins. The Chargers beat the Dolphins on Dec. 20 on an emotional day in which fans thought they were seeing their beloved Bolts in San Diego for the final time.Quarterback Philip Rivers said hes optimistic enough groundwork has been laid for the team and city to eventually agree to a stadium deal.The love from team to the city and the city to the team has been awesome over the last 55 years and the last 13 Ive been here, Rivers said. I cant see us not here. We have four of our last seven at home and a chance to bounce back and get back in the thick of it, and hopefully we can have some exciting home-field advantage type of atmosphere games down the stretch.Here are some things to look for when the Chargers (4-5) host the Dolphins (4-4):MOO: Being from Wisconsin, Chargers second-year running back Melvin Gordon is OK with coach Mike McCoy referring to him as a bell cow after he went off for a career-high 196 yards on 32 carries and his NFL-leading 11th touchdown in a home victory against Tennessee. He also caught four passes for 65 yards.I mean, its cool, Gordon said. Its all right. I like it, I guess. You hear it a lot at Wisconsin, going there.Gordon is running hard and quickly making people forget his miserable rookie season. Hes run for 768 yards and nine touchdowns, with two receiving TDs.Gordon became the bell cow after Danny Woodhead was lost to a knee injury in the second game.Mores been put on his shoulders. Hes played more snaps and had a lot more carries, Rivers said. You dont want to run him down, but at the same time the way hes going, you want to give it to him as much as he can. I dont think its a deal where hes going to get it handed to him 30 times, but were going to need him to keep running the way hes running, because when were able to be that balanced and have those type of drives, it makes us that much better.ANOTHER RUNNER: Miamis Jay Ajayi has rushed for 100-plus yards in three consecutive games, including two straight 200-yard games The last Dolphins running back who had three or more consecutive games with 100-plus yards was Reggie Bush, who had four straight in 2011.Ajayis 529 yards in those three games are third most in team history behind Ricky Williams, who rushed for 587 and 545 yards in two three-game stretches in 2002.OPENING HOLES: Dolphins center Mike Pouncey reached the second level to block a linebacker and seal off a lane for a 20-yard touchdown run by Ajayi. Thats just one small example of the job the offensive line has done to pave the way for the Dolphins recent turnaround.Youve got four guys who can play left tackle, and youve got probably the best center in football, in my eyes, Branden Albert said. Our talent and our experience is helping us out.Albert is the starting left tackle, but left guard Laremy Tunsil, right guard Jermon Bushrod and right tackle JaWuan James all have experience at left tackle.DEEP IN RETURNERS: Darren Rizzi is in his eighth year as the Dolphins special teams coordinator, and hes never enjoyed so much depth among his returners.Rookie Kenyan Drake ran back a kickoff 96 yards for the winning touchdown last Sunday against the Jets. Jakeem Grant scored on a 74-yard punt return in Week 5. Jarvis Landry is averaging 11.1 yards on punt returns.Its a good problem to have, Rizzi said. For a special teams coach to have options back there where youre not just a one-trick pony, it really helps you. This is the first time in eight years weve had this many guys Id feel comfortable putting back there.GATES WATCH: San Diego star Antonio Gates is three touchdown catches shy of matching Tony Gonzalezs NFL record for a tight end (111).

Kd Scarpe Basket Scontate . The 17-year-old native of Marystown, N.L., pulled out of Skate Canada International last month in Saint John, N.B., with the same problem. DARLINGTON, S.C. -- Ryan Newman and Jamie McMurray could only wonder what could have been Sunday in the Southern 500.They both felt they could have put themselves in better situations heading into the regular-season finale Saturday at Richmond International Raceway.Newman finished eighth and McMurray15th at Darlington Raceway as they battled for the final provisional spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup. McMurray is seven points ahead of Newman for that final spot as currently three berths are available for winless drivers in the 16-driver field.Among the winless, Chase Elliott has a 24-point edge on Newman and Austin Dillon has an 18-point edge.Newmans day at Darlington started poorly, as he had to drop to the rear of the field because of unapproved adjustments after prerace tech. Then some bad pit stops also cost him spots.We had a much better car than what we finished, Newman said. It was really disappointing. The shenanigans before the race put us last and then bad pit stops were just rough.When you fight so hard to keep it off the fence and dont give them a reason to fix it and have a slow pit stop, and then to have one is really tough to swallow.McMurray also was a little frustrated as he had to come back down pit road a second time for missing lug nuts late in the race. He was 10th with less than 30 laps remaining, making the 15th-place finish a day where he had a better car than where he finished.We should have ran sixth to eighth possibly, McMurray said. We just had a lug nut off on the next-to-last stop, so we had to come in. It stinks. But it is what it is.That could be the Richard Childress Racing team attitude at Richmond if NASCAR penalizes the team this week for failing postrace measurements on Newmans car. That could be a penalty of 10 or 15 points -- or more, considering Newman already has had one 10-point penalty this year for illegal brackets found prerace at Atlanta.Newman said his team will go to Richmond with the same philosophy as at Darlington: Try to win the race.We try hard, Newman said. Trying hard aint good enough when youre losing three spots at a time [on pit road].McMurray admitted he will have a nervous week. But there is a worse alternative.Its stressful, but the way I approach that is I spent years not being in this position and the fact you get to be there and be nervous about it, it is a pretty good feeling to have, McMurray said.Xfinity Series: A lot of happinessThe drivers who finished first and eighth in the Xfinity Series race at Darlington had the most jubilation.The winner of the race is expected to have some. But even for Elliott Sadler, this was a big win.Nearly two months earlier, he had learned that his sponsor, OneMain Financial, was going to leave the sport.A month ago, I was retired, Sadler said. I ddont really know what else I was going to do in a race car, if I had that opportunity.dddddddddddd ... To go from maybe being retired to winning a race at Darlington, a place I came to as a kid to watch, theres a pretty doggone lot of emotions.But OneMain switched gears and opted to sponsor two-thirds of the season starting next year. Sadler was unretired.Just that would make the win emotional, but add health issues for his mother -- she is now home after spending time in an intensive care unit -- and his boss, Dale Earnhardt Jr., and Sadler could barely contain himself after winning at his favorite racetrack.Im still a kid a heart, Sadler said. I know yall rag me for being 41 years old, but Im still a kid at heart, still love this sport. It still takes me to the top level of the ladder, and the next week, Im down and out.For Jeremy Clements, who finished eighth, he enjoyed his second top-10 in the past three races. And for him, he drove a special car in his home state -- the black widow paint scheme that was reminiscent of the cars his great uncle and grandfather worked on and led to wins and a championship.Its very special, Clements said while looking at the photo of his relatives on the side of the car. Looking at my grandpa and great uncle Louis, they were the ones that wrenched on that car and made it happen and won the championship.It is so cool to drive this car. Its an honor. Its a blessing. Its a tribute to them and everything they did. They got me started in racing.Camping World Truck Series: A lot of angerCole Custer had a reason to be angry after losing the Camping World Truck Series race at Canadian Tire Motorsport Park.John Hunter Nemechek roughed him up a couple of times while Custer was leading the final lap, and then Nemechek lost control of his car, sliding into Custer and ramming him into the frontstretch wall of the road course.The two rode alongside the wall in the grass, with Nemechek emerging as the winner.Custer ran and tackled Nemechek after the race.When you dont give a guy a chance, whats the point of racing? Custer said. I couldnt do anything else. He gave me no choice, no chance to do anything, so its not racing in my book.But hes shown time and again throughout the year that he doesnt have much respect.The win was Nemecheks second of the season while Custer needed a win to get a spot in the truck version of the Chase. The trucks are off this week with their regular season ending next week at Chicagoland Speedway.Nemechek said he felt as if Custer was in his position, he would race him the same way. Whether thats true is debatable. But it probably will be the way Custer races him from now on. ' ' '
