Chargers make blown leads an art form in season full of them

0

In a season full of blown leads, perhaps no team has perfected the art of the late-game collapse better than the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Chargers blew a 21-point lead in a 31-30 defeat Sunday at Denver, marking the third time this season they lost a game they led by at least 17.

Los Angeles is the first team since the 2003 Falcons to lose three times in a season after leading by 17 points or more. The rest of the NFL is a combined 52-4 when up by at least 17, compared to the 0-3 for the Chargers.
