Chargers 38 Titans 10
QUALCOMM STADIUM (09-16-12) In an attempt to beat the scorching heat, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) sported an all-white look in their blowout win over the Tennessee Titans (0-2).
A pre-game ceremony was held prior to kickoff to honor the late Junior Seau and officially retire his #55 jersey. He joins Lance Alworth and Dan Fouts as the only players to have their jersey numbers retired by the Chargers.
With Antonio Gates on the sideline nursing a rib injury, tight end Dante Rosario stepped up and caught a career high three touchdown passes.
Running Back Jackie Battle entered the game in the fourth quarter and gave a much needed boost to the Chargers rushing attack. He put up two goal line touchdown runs to seal the win.
