Game grade from CBSSPORTS: L.A. Chargers 25-17 over Seattle
Chargers: A-
The Chargers did the impossible on Sunday: They beat Russell Wilson in Seattle. Going into this week, Wilson had been 12-0 all-time at home against AFC teams, but that's now 12-1 thanks to the Chargers. Los Angeles got Melvin Gordon back in this game, which was huge, because they needed him. Playing for the first time since Week 6, Gordon rushed for 113 yards and a touchdown on just 16 carries. The Chargers also got a big game from Keenan Allen, who totaled 152 yards (28 rushing, 124 receiving). Of course, the Chargers' biggest problem is still their biggest problem and that problem is at kicker. Caleb Sturgis almost lost this game for L.A. with an ugly performance that included two missed extra points and a missed 42-yard field goal.
Seahawks: B
Russell Wilson didn't make many mistakes in this game, but he did make one in the fourth quarter that put Seattle in a big hole. With just 6:44 left, Wilson threw a pick-six that turned a 19-10 Chargers lead into a 25-10 Chargers lead. Of course, there's a good chance no one's going to remember that because all anyone is going to remember is that David Moore dropped a potential game-tying touchdown pass on the final play.

With professor Nick Canepa on vacation, Union-Tribune NFL writer Tom Krasovic issues his grades for the Chargers after their 25-17 victory against the Seahawks on Sunday in Seattle.
Quarterbacks: A
Philip Rivers was very good, but can he kick?
Rivers outplayed his fellow N.C. State alum, Russell Wilson, by more than a little.
Running backs: A
Melvin Gordon looked fresh after two weeks of rest due to a reported hamstring ailment. He topped 100 rushing yards for the eighth time in his career and third time this season.
Receivers: A-
Big plays from Keenan Allen, Tyrell Williams and Mike Williams kept the Seahawks from loading up against the run. Walling off a defender, Tyrell Williams made a catch in tight quarters for his fourth TD in three games. Mike Williams, atoning for a dropped pass, broke a tackle en route to the end zone.
Offensive line: B
Two sacks in the fourth quarter lowered the grade. Center Mike Pouncey maintained his high level of play. Gold stars to honorary OL grunts Virgil GreenDefensive line: B-Linebackers: C+Secondary: A-Casey HaywardSpecial teams: F
Caleb Sturgis, F-minus. In his return from a quad injury, Sturgis missed three kicks and was flagged for tripping. Reuniting him with holder Donnie JonesJaguars.
Geremy Davis was sharp on kick coverage.
Coaching: CNext Opportunity (at Raiders): A
The Raiders (1-7) are coming off their most pathetic performance of several this season, a 34-3 loss to the one-victory 49ers
