NFL Radio Highlights and Recap: Chargers 29 – Broncos 24

10/09/2011

DENVER (10/9/11) – The San Diego Chargers took a big lead early, then held on as Tim Tebow entered the game and nearly rallied the Denver Broncos (1-4) to an improbable victory.

Philip Rivers rushed for one score and threw for another for the Chargers (4-1), who were leading 23-10 at the half. In the 3rd quarter, Tebow replaced the ineffective Kyle Orton and ran for one score and threw for another before seeing the comeback fall short with an incompletion at the final whistle.

Howard David and Tony Boselli called the action on Westwood One.
