SAN DIEGO -- Philip Rivers matched his career-high with four touchdown passes, including two to Travis Benjamin, Melvin Gordon ran for one score and had his first 100-yard game in the San Diego Chargers 38-14 victory against the mistake-prone Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday.The Chargers (1-1) bounced back from their stunning loss at Kansas City, when they blew a 21-point third-quarter lead and fell 33-27 in overtime.The Jaguars started 0-2 for the fourth time in five seasons. They crossed midfield only six times and committed three turnovers.Casey Hayward led the Chargers defense with two interceptions of Blake Bortles. His first set up a short drive Rivers capped with a 12-yard touchdown pass to Benjamin for a 14-0 lead on the first play of the second quarter.Rivers threw a 2-yard scoring pass to tight end Antonio Gates for a 21-0 lead midway through the second period. That drive started after a missed 54-yard field goal by Jacksonvilles Jason Myers, who went to Mater Dei High in suburban Chula Vista.His third scoring pass went 44 yards to Tyrell Williams, who bounced off two defenders and broke two tackles just before going into the end zone in the third quarter.Benjamin, signed as a free agent from Cleveland, caught a 45-yarder late in the third quarter.Gordon, a second-year pro, scored on a 3-yard run on the games opening drive, his first TD at Qualcomm Stadium.

He finished with 102 yards on 24 carries.Gordon failed to score a TD during his rookie season, then scored twice at Kansas City.Bortles threw TD passes of 4 yards to Marcedes Lewis and 15 to Corey Grant in the fourth quarter.The Chargers lost a playmaker for the second straight week.

The flag appeared to have a big twist in the middle and couldnt be fully opened.A SAN DIEGO INSTITUTION: Rivers and Gates have hooked up on 78 touchdown passes, the most in NFL history for a quarterback-tight end tandem. Gates has caught 80 TD passes since Rivers became the starter in 2006, but two were thrown by LaDainian Tomlinson on halfback option plays.

"I think its a good thing. MILWAUKEE -- Following a blowout loss to the Bucks on Tuesday in a game during which J.R. Smith allowed a wide-open dunk because he was busy greeting a Milwaukee player on the sidelines while the ball was in play, the Cleveland Cavaliers guard pleaded ignorance when asked about the mistake.I wasnt even paying attention, Smith said of his hug with Jason Terry with 2:57 remaining in the second quarter that left Tony Snell with an uncontested path to the basket. I dont even remember that.The bucket gave the Bucks a 53-50 lead en route to their eventual 118-101 victory, snapping a four-game win streak for the now 13-3 Cavs.The blunder certainly wasnt the main reason Cleveland lost -- it can blame its season-high 20 turnovers leading to 22 Milwaukee points and the 68 points in the paint it gave up -- yet Smith maintained his charade of selective amnesia.What play are you talking about? Smith said when a reporter continued to ask him about the clip that had gone viral even before the game ended.When the reporter described the play in detail, Smith replied, I didnt even know I was in the game. My bad.During the interview, Smith wore a ski mask-style cover over his face, only making his answers more bizarre.Its my alter ego, Smith said. Its a gift from Ohio State, so I figure why not?Smith got the hood during the Cavs trip to the Michigan-Ohio State football game over the weekend.He was then asked if his alter ego had a name.Yeah, he said.What is it?I cant tell you, Smith said, as LeBron James chuckled while dressing at the locker next to him, causing Smith to laugh, as well.Cavs coach Tyronn Lue was in a far less cheery mood after what was, unmistakably, his teams worst loss of the season.I just didnt like that we didnt match their physicality, Lue said after Cleveland saw an early 14-point lead turn into a double-digit defeat. I thought they were physical from 1 through 5. They were physical, they played harder than we did and thats what happens. You give up 68 points in the paint, you dont get back in transition and this team scored 118 points with only seven 3s. So, 68 points in the paint -- we told them we had to protect the paint tonight, and we just didnt do it.Things got so bad for the Cavs in the third quarter that Lue employed one of his boldest moves since becoming coach at midseason last year: He benched his entire lineup en masse to bring in five reserve players as subbstitutes.ddddddddddddI just wanted to do it, Lue said of taking out Kevin Love, Kyrie Irving, Tristan Thompson, Iman Shumpert and James and replacing them with Chris Andersen, DeAndre Liggins, Mike Dunleavy, Jordan McRae and James Jones.Pressed for his reasoning, Lue replied, I just didnt like how we played, how we were playing.Cleveland trailed by 11 when Lue made the move with 3:49 remaining in the third. By the end of the period, the Bucks lead had ballooned to 18.Hes our coach, and if he felt like we werent giving the effort we needed to do, then he has the right to do that, James said. Our guys that came in, they played as well as they could, for sure.Lue went back to his starters with 10:56 left in the fourth and Cleveland down 15, but the coach pulled them back out for good with 6:03 remaining, when the Bucks pushed their cushion up to 22.Asked whether he saw any change in his top unit after the lineup swap occurred, Lue scoffed, Same results. ... You saw it.While Love did not agree with a reporter suggesting Lue was sending a message with the move, the team accepted it, no matter Lues motivation.Probably if I was a coach, I probably would have done the same thing, Irving said. Even though the point disparity wasnt as big in the point of the game, but, I mean, we needed it. They were getting some easy looks, and you obviously know the coaches around the league -- probably one coach, in [Gregg] Popovich, [would] do it with his starting five and take them out just to prove a point.I think that going forward, we dont want it to happen again and well do our best to not make it happen again. So as leaders of the team -- myself, LeBron, Kevin -- in picking up the guys, we got to lead this charge; and going forward, well be better.James was ready to leave the loss in Milwaukee and focus on the back-to-back against the?LA Clippers?and Chicago Bulls awaiting the Cavs to finish the week.Move on, James said, as he pretended to crumple up a piece of paper and throw it in the trash. Move on, move on.[In an] 82-game season, youre going to have one or two of these. I was looking at the scores after the game, and I see San Antonio is losing at home to Orlando right now. I know Pop is not happy about that. You just crumple it up and move on to the next. ' ' '
