CARSON, California -- It was another Sunday afternoon of almosts for the Browns in their loss to the Chargers. The defense almost got enough stops. The offense almost hit Josh Gordon on enough big plays. The Browns almost repeated their upset of the Chargers from a year ago.
The circumstances were different, this time, though. The Chargers weren't flying into a different timezone to play on Christmas Eve in the cold, their season over. This year, they're fighting for a playoff spot. And they came away with a win, 19-10, dropping the Browns to 0-12 and the Chargers are now 6-6.
