Outside Linebacker Shawne Merriman prepares to make a tackle against the rival Raiders.
Cornerback Quintin Jammer leaps to intercept a pass in the blowout win over Denver for his only interception in 2007. He excelled covering the opposition's top targets in 2007. Despite the fact that much fewer passes were thrown to his side of the field compared to teammate Antonio Cromartie, he was tied for second on the Chargers in passes defensed with 10 in 2007.
