SAN DIEGO (AP) With 15 seconds left and his San Diego Chargers trying to hold onto a 21-13 lead against Denver, embattled coach Mike McCoy hunched over with his head in his hands.

It couldn't be happening again, could it?

Two snaps later, Dexter McCoil batted down Trevor Siemian's desperation pass and McCoy and the Chargers were able to exhale.

Says McCoy, ''We made the one stop at the end that we had to make.''

The Chargers (2-4), who snapped a 10-game losing streak to AFC West foes dating to 2014, finally figured out how not to blow a late lead.
