Motivation came in different forms for the San Diego Chargers on Sunday, from Denver's loss to the little surprise LaDainian Tomlinson's wife left in his locker.

Tomlinson's career certainly isn't finished and neither is the AFC West race.

Tomlinson ran for a season-high 96 yards and scored twice to continue his climb up the career rushing and scoring lists, and the Chargers beat the Philadelphia Eagles 31-23 to pull into a tie atop the AFC West with the slumping Broncos.

Asked if something happened that gave him motivation, L.T. got a little emotional.
