DENVER -- Mike McCoy refused to second-guess himself for not putting the ball in Melvin Gordons hands on four snaps from the Denver 2 in one of the worst decisions in Week 8.Well do the second-guessing for him.Gordon leads the league with 10 touchdowns. He was the first running back to top 100 yards against Denver this season. He averaged 4.8 yards a carry.So, with the Chargers trailing the Broncos 27-19 with less than three minutes remaining Sunday, McCoy had Philip Rivers throw four times.In McCoys defense, cornerbacks Aqib Talib (back) and Kayvon Webster (hamstring) were on the sideline along with linebacker Brandon Marshall (hamstring).In McCoys indictment, pass rusher DeMarcus Ware was back from a broken arm to lead a group that picked off Rivers three times, sacked him four times, broke up 13 of his passes and hit him 17 times.Rivers was hurried by T.J. Ward on first down and threw the ball away.He was hurried by Ware on second down and threw it away.Understandably jumpy, he overthrew Antonio Gates on third down.The Broncos sent an all-out blitz on fourth down and Lorenzo Doss broke up a pass intended for tight end Hunter Henry.After the fact, you go, `Shoot, maybe we should have run it once or twice down there, Rivers said.Not so, McCoy.We called the plays we did. We didnt finish them. We didnt score, McCoy said. We called what we did. It didnt work. Im not going to second-guess it now.Instead of a chance at evening the score and maybe going on to win the game and evening their record, the Chargers limped home at 3-5, all but buried in the AFC West, where the Broncos and Raiders are 6-2 and the Chiefs 5-2.Two stars called out the NFL officials Sunday, and only one of them had a legitimate beef.Cam Newton said hes had it with the officials not protecting him and taking the fun out of the game for me.Josh Norman complained about one official who kept throwing flags on him even though he kept committing penalties.In Charlotte, Newton, the leagues reigning MVP, said he simply doesnt get the same calls that other QBs in the league get.Enough is enough, Newton said after Carolinas 30-20 win over Arizona. I dont think theres a person that can go through what I go through and keep their head, you know what Im saying? Hits to the head, thats one thing, but when youre not protected in the pocket, thats another thing. It became the story of my life ever since I came in (to the league). Its always, `Oh, we missed that, Im sorry.Newton said he plans to talk to NFL commissioner Roger Goodell about why he is treated differently than other QBs.He said the breaking point for him came in the third quarter when Arizona defensive tackle Calais Campbell came crashing into Newtons knees , reminiscent of the hit that sidelined Tom Brady in 2008.Newton was slow to get up, but Campbell was not penalized.I could have torn my ACL, Newton fumed.In London, Norman was miffed after Washingtons 27-27 tie with Cincinnati about all the times he kept getting called for hands to the face while covering Bengals star receiver A.J. Green.Whos official 88? Norman asked.That would be field judge Brad Freeman.He sucked, Norman said. Im just going to be honest with you. Im going to be straight-forward. He was terrible and I feel like he should be reprimanded.Its Norman who should be chided, suggested NBC football analyst Tony Dungy.All (Freeman) does is watch the wide receivers and defensive backs and those were good calls. Those were not phantom calls, Dungy said. Josh Norman has to understand if you put your hands in the face or you grab jerseys, its going to get called.Rodney Harrison suggested Norman should have been thankful Freeman didnt throw three or four more flags on Norman, and if he does not change his technique, its going to continue to happen.In New Orleans, safety Earl Thomas was flagged for giving too much love to the officials. He embraced side judge Alex Kemp in a bear hug after his 34-yard fumble return for a touchdown in Seattles 25-20 loss to the Saints, drawing a 15-yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct.That one may have been silly, but Seahawks coach Pete Carroll was serious when he complained to the officials about two pick plays that werent whistled, one of which came on a touchdown.These are the plays that challenge the officials, Carroll said, and they were challenged today.And the best call of the weekend had to be Jack Del Rios decision to go for it on fourth-and-3 from the Tampa Bay 41 with 1:55 left in overtime.Derek Carr hit Seth Roberts over the middle and he slipped out of a sandwich tackle and raced into the end zone for the 30-24 win that sets up a showdown with Denver next weekend pitting two 6-2 teams for the AFC West lead.---AP Sports Writers Steve Reed and Brett Martel contributed.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton .

HOUSTON -- The Houston Astros hit the ball so hard Wednesday night that some players wished they had something to protect their ears in the dugout from the sound of smack after home run smack. The Astros put on an impressive display of power, hitting six home runs to get their seventh win in eight games with a 11-7 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. Jason Castro, Carlos Pena and J.D. Martinez each had two-run homers, and Jose Altuve, Matt Dominguez and Marwin Gonzalez added solo shots as the Astros came one home run shy of a single-game franchise record for home runs. "I think everybody hit the ball hard tonight," Martinez said. "You felt like you needed headphones or ear plugs in the dugout because everybody was hitting the ball hard." The Astros tagged Freddy Garcia (2-3) for four homers, then reached reliever Steve Johnson for two in the fourth inning. Its the most home runs the Astros have had in a game since also hitting six on Aug. 9, 2006 against Pittsburgh. The record of seven long balls came in 2000. It is the second time theyve had six different players hit homers in a game and the first since that record-setting game in 2000. The game extended a streak of eight straight with a home run for the Astros, who have hit 15 in that span. Pena, one of the only veterans on this team which is the youngest in the American League, said its fun to see the team start to play well. "Its a blast," he said. "We all pull for each other. We have a pretty good group. I think we all get along very well and we genuinely pull for each other, so when someone else has success its like everyone is just enjoying it." About the only disappointment for Houston was that every player didnt get a homer. "We kept talking about it," Martinez said. "All we needed was three more, and the whole lineup would have hit a home run." Houston starter Dallas Keuchel (3-2) yielded five hits and a run with three strikeouts in six innings. Garcia allowed seven hits and a season-high six runs, and the four homers tied a career high in three-plus innings, his shortest start of the season. Garcia had allowed just seven homers this season before Wednesday, and pitched eight scoreless innings in his last start. "He didnt have his split," manager Buck Showalter said. "All of the things he had working for him last time, he didnt have. He elevated a lot of balls. They put a lot of good swings on the mistakes we made, and we made a bunch of them tonight." The last time Garcia gave up four home runs was on Aug. 17, 2004. The Orioles couldnt get anything going on offence until after Keuchel left the game and they were down 9-1. J.J. Hardy had an RBI single in the first and a solo home run in Baltimores three-run seventh inning. Matt Wieters connected on a two-run homer in the eighth inning and Manny Machado droove in a run later in that inning.dddddddddddd The Orioles were unable to build on the big inning when Hardy grounded into a double play with the bases loaded to end the eighth. Dominguez drove in two more runs with a double in the seventh inning. The Astros got hits from everyone in their lineup, with Carlos Corporan going 3 for 3 and scoring two runs. Houston got homer after homer in the first four innings, sending six of its first nine hits out of the park. Altuve singled with one out in the first before Castro became the first Astro to go deep, launching a shot to the bullpen in right-centre field to put Houston up 2-1. Corporan singled with two outs and Pena made it 4-1 when he knocked a homer to almost the exact same spot in the bullpen. No. 9 hitter Gonzalez continued the slugging in the second inning when he also sent one into the bullpen to extend the lead to 5-1. Garcia allowed a two-out single to Pena before walking Corporan in the third, but Trevor Crowe grounded out to end that inning. Dominguez opened Houstons fourth with his homer to the mezzanine to chase Garcia. He was replaced by Steve Johnson, who struck out the first two batters before Houstons hot hitting continued when Altuve sent one to left field to make it 7-1. Castro drew a walk to set the table for Martinez, whose soaring shot bounced high on the wall in left-centre field to extend Houstons lead to 9-1. Johnson issued another walk but finally escaped the inning by striking out Pena. The Orioles led early after Nate McLouth started the game with a ground-rule double and scored on a one-out single by Hardy to make it 1-0. Keuchel walked Alexi Casilla with two outs in the second inning before retiring 12 in a row. Baltimores next baserunner came when Adam Jones singled with two outs in the sixth. Chris Davis followed with another single and Wieters walked to load the bases. Keuchel got out of the jam by striking out Danny Valencia. "I honestly didnt think I was going to make it out of the first inning the way I was throwing the ball," Keuchel said. "But I got lucky to get out of that first inning and kind of settled in after that after Castros home run in the bottom of the first." Casilla had a run-scoring triple in the seventh before McLouth sent home another run with a sacrifice fly to cut the lead to 9-3. Hardy hit his 13th homer with two outs in the inning.
