OAKLAND – Less is more for the Chargers offense, so far.

Only four teams in the league are taking fewer offensive snaps per game than the Chargers. Yet only four teams are gaining more yards per game.

There is good and bad to be seen in that. No team – especially not one with Super Bowl aspirations – is happy with its offense not being on the field enough.

Big plays are exciting, but it’s a dangerous way to live and impossible to count on.

“Obviously, we are doing a lot of things good,” quarterback Philip Rivers said. “We need to continue to keep the running game going. We busted a couple, but we really have to bust some really long ones. That takes time and patience.”

Rivers swears the day is coming when the Chargers will run the ball 40 times a game, by necessity or logic.

That day has not yet arrived and does not appear to be at hand.

Not with this offense, not with a quarterback dealing like he is, not with a tailback’s toe not quite right and defenses still playing to stop him.
