are finally in the books [url=http://www.thechargerslockerroom.com/authentic-kyle-emanuel-jersey]http://www.thechargerslockerroom.com/authentic-kyle-emanuel-jersey[/url] , thanks to safety Kareem Jackson's riveting return, Alexander Johnson's long-awaited arrival and Mike Purcell's starting debut."We waited a little longer than we wanted to, but a hell of a win," general manager John Elway said as he presented his almost-sheepish 61-year-old rookie head coach with a game ball in Denver's delirious locker room in Los Angeles.It's no surprise the unpretentious sexagenarian didn't keep the keepsake of the 20-13 win over the Chargers."I gave it away," Fangio said. "It's for the players, you know."The Broncos (1-4) ended an eight-game skid along with their takeaway drought as they rallied around the loss of star defender Bradley Chubb (ACL) to put an end to their winless ways.Jackson's return from a sore hamstring settled the secondary and he provided the play of the game when he hammered Austin Ekeler and forced him to fumble while trying to reach the pylon on fourth-and-goal from the 1 as the first half expired, allowing Denver to take a 17-0 lead into the locker room."Those are the types of plays we had envisioned when we brought Kareem in here to play safety," Fangio said.Purcell's first start helped repair a run defense that allowed just 35 yards a week after surrendering 269. His start in place of Adam Gotsis also allowed Shelby Harris to move from nose tackle to his more natural defensive end spot.Filling in for Josey Jewell (hamstring), Johnson and had nine tackles, two pass breakups and an end zone interception in his first start since Nov. 15 [url=http://www.thechargerslockerroom.com/authentic-forrest-lamp-jersey]Womens Forrest Lamp Jersey[/url] , 2014, for Tennessee vs. Kentucky."I'm not surprised by his play," Von Miller said. "He has the size, he has the speed and he's smart."WHAT'S WORKINGDefensive changes. Fangio said Purcell and Johnson both earned another start next week against Tennessee. "They both played well enough to continue," said Fangio.WHAT NEEDS HELPOC Rich Scangarello's play-calling and the Broncos' offensive execution coming out of halftime. In their last two games, outside of a 15-yard penalty, the Broncos have gained just 24 yards and one first down in six third-quarter drives. They blew a 17-6 halftime lead against Jacksonville and their defense kept them from blowing a 17-0 halftime lead at LA. Fangio said the key is staying out of third-and-long situations.STOCK UPJohnson, although Fangio said he needs to keep cleaning things up to stay on the upswing. He fixed flaws on special teams but his first start was more the result of Jewell's lingering hamstring injury than his improvement. "He's a young guy who needs to master his craft a little bit better," Fangio said. "But I always knew he was going to get in there somehow, some way [url=http://www.thechargerslockerroom.com/authentic-mike-williams-jersey]Mike Williams Jersey[/url] , because he does have talent."STOCK DOWNCB Isaac Yiadom has taken up LT Garett Bolles' penchant for penalties accompanied by indignation when flagged. He's looking like a poor fit in Fangio's zone scheme. Also, PR Diontae Spencer fielded a punt inside his own 5 for the second straight week. "He's not doing what he's been coached to do there," Fangio said.INJUREDCB De'Vante Bausby (cervical spine) will "definitely miss some time. I don't know if it will be the rest of the season or not," Fangio said. Rookie LB Justin Hollins (knee) is day-to-day, and RT Ja'Wuan James (knee), sidelined since the opener, is expected to return to the lineup against the Titans if all goes well at practice this week.KEY NUMBER12 — the number of penalties the Broncos racked up, costing them a whopping 122 yards. Five penalties were on offense, six on defense and one on special teams. The Chargers were flagged four times for 43 yards.NEXT STEPSWith their eight-game skid over, the Broncos are out to win at home for the first time since beating the Steelers 24-17 on Nov. 25. Since then [url=http://www.thechargerslockerroom.com/authentic-darius-philon-jersey]http://www.thechargerslockerroom.com/authentic-darius-philon-jersey[/url] , they've lost to the Browns (17-16), Chargers (23-9), Bears (16-14) and Jaguars (26-24).Follow Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton The Chicago Bears’ first-year head coach, Matt Nagy, ran away with Coach of the Year award, but the Los Angeles Chargers’ own Anthony Lynn came in second in the voting.

Los Angeles Chargers NewsLos Angeles Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn finishes second in Coach of the Year votingNew,6commentsPSTThe Chicago Bears’ first-year head coach, Matt Nagy, ran away with Coach of the Year award, but the Los Angeles Chargers’ own Anthony Lynn came in second in the voting. Around the NFL reported the voting results via TwitterThere was little surprise in the results with the Indianapolis Colts’ Frank Reich [url=http://www.thechargerslockerroom.com/authentic-adrian-phillips-jersey]Womens Adrian Phillips Jersey[/url] , Kansas City Chiefs’ Andy Reid, Seattle Seahawks’ Pete Carroll, and New Orleans Saints’ Sean Payton also receiving votes. It was perhaps somewhat interesting that neither of the coaches competing in tomorrow’s Super Bowl, Sean McVay and Bill Belichick, received any votes.Anthony Lynn had an amazing season in his second year as head coach of the Chargers, tying the Chiefs for the best record in the AFC and overseeing both a top-10 offense and top-10 defense. He also appears to have made inroads into changing the losing culture of the franchise with incredible comeback victories on the road against Pittsburgh Steelers and Kansas City Chiefs along the way.There is an argument to be made that Lynn deserved the award over Nagy, but coming in second in the voting is still nice to see as a fan of Lynn and the Chargers.
