The Chargers turned it over four times, managed only 178 yards of offense and were destroyed by the Dolphins, 37-0, in Miami Gardens.

Philip Rivers was turnover prone, going 12 for 23 with 138 yards passing, three picks and one fumble with no scores. Ryan Tannehill was more productive for the Dolphins, and finished 24 for 34 with 288 yards passing, three touchdowns and no interceptions.

Donald Brown ran for 23 yards on four carries. Malcom Floyd snagged four passes for 60 yards.

The San Diego defense surrendered 132 yards rushing and 309 passing.

Dolphins tight end Charles Clay could not be contained, putting up 65 receiving yards and one touchdown. After Tannehill, he was the top performer for Miami. Running back Lamar Miller was also solid with 49 rushing yards and one touchdown.

The Chargers will play host to the Raiders (0-8) next week while the Dolphins head to Detroit to face off with the Lions (6-2).
