FOXBORO -- The Patriots were in the minds of the Chargers before they even got off the buses. Literally.

The convoy of Chargers buses -- one of which was carrying quarterback Philip Rivers and the Los Angeles coaches -- was delayed entry into Gillette Stadium Sunday morning because the Chargers owners were slow to unload their SUVs in front of them.

As a result, when the buses finally did pull into the unloading area steps from the visitor's locker room, there was irritation at the delay.
