"It's definitely a difference," said cornerback Asante Samuel Jr. "You can feel it. You can, just the way he goes about it; the balls are different. Just everything is different. His command is out there. So I'm glad to have him back out there."
When Herbert returned on Monday, Harbaugh said, "music should be playing; I thought I heard music, voices of angels maybe." Samuel agreed, as did offensive coordinator Greg Roman.
Herbert, who had been in a walking boot for the last two weeks with a plantar fascia injury, rolled to his left without any limitation and threw a touchdown pass to Palmer over the outstretched arms of two defenders.
In the two weeks Herbert was out, the Chargers offense was abysmal. At practice, the defense consistently dominated, securing interceptions and forcing errant throws.
