Running Backs -- B. Is LT getting the ball enough? No. Hester had the game of his life.

Receivers -- B-plus. They caught everything thrown their way.

Offensive Line -- D-plus. Pass blocking? We don't need no stinking pass blocking. Dielman's jump -- if he really did jump -- was crucial.

Defensive Line -- B. If the Chargers played every game in front of John Madden, Jamal Williams would be a Hall of Fame lock.

Linebackers -- C. Phillips makes a huge play. No sacks. Manning must be rattled, and he wasn't.

Secondary -- C. Jammer's pick is the first turnover this defense has created since the team moved from L.A.

Special Teams -- B. Kaeding nails a clutch field goal. Kickoff coverage has been better.

Coaching -- D-minus. Once again, a team drove the field at the end to win a game. Red-zone offense remains a major problem.

Chargers' third-and-long defense -- F. Manning could make them throwing with his feet.

Pass Interference -- AA. As in double-awful. Zebras no longer know how to call it. They don't know how to call much of anything.

Next Opportunity: Atlanta -- D. The Falcons are pretty good. The Chargers aren't.
