"All that talk about the left hand of Justin Herbert, and Monday night came down to the left foot of Cameron Dicker - and both hands of Tony Jefferson. Dicker made five field goals and Jefferson made a game-ending interception to lift the Chargers to a 22-19 overtime victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. Cam Hart tipped the pass and Jefferson picked it off a yard from the end zone as the rest of the Chargers stormed the field."
"The Chargers (9-4) close out with a brutally difficult stretch. They play at Kansas City and Dallas, come home for a game against Houston, and finish at white-hot Denver. Leading them is Herbert, who played Monday a mere week after surgery to repair his fractured left hand. At times, it seemed he was willing his team to victory against a franchise that bore little resemblance to the one that captured the latest Lombardi Trophy."
The Chargers beat the defending champion Eagles 22-19 in overtime after Tony Jefferson intercepted Jalen Hurts at the one-yard line following a Cam Hart tip. Cameron Dicker made five field goals, including a 46-yarder that forced overtime and a 54-yard game-winner in overtime. Justin Herbert played one week after surgery to repair a fractured left hand, ran for 66 yards, was sacked seven times, and served as the team's leading rusher. The victory was the Chargers' fifth in six games, improving their playoff chances; the team needs one win in the final four games against Kansas City, Dallas, Houston, and Denver.
