CARSON, Calif. – “Let’s go Eagles!”

Those were the chants coming from most of the 25,374 in attendance at the StubHubCenter, as this was a home game in location only for the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Chargers fell behind 13-0 early, fought their way back into it but ultimately lost again 26-24 to remain winless on the season in a disastrous start in L.A.

The Eagles held Chargers running back Melvin Gordon to just 22 yards on 12 carries. Gordon entered the contest with a sore left knee and never got going against an aggressive Philadelphia defensive front.
