Justin Herbert passes for 2 touchdowns, Chargers score on free kick and rally past Broncos 34-27

Associated Press  

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Trailing 21-13 at halftime Thursday night against the Denver Broncos, some wondered if the Los Angeles Chargers had any resolve left after going through their worst four-quarter stretch of the season. They went back to work and stayed the course.” The Chargers’ comeback also included Cameron Dicker making the first successful fair-catch kick in the NFL in 48 years. “We had a fast start, and then uncharacteristically this season, we didn’t finish or play nearly well enough in the second half, both offensively and defensively.” The Broncos appeared well on their way to wrapping up their first postseason berth since 2015 after they scored on their first three drives to go up 21-10. I feel like we did that today.” Denver gained 212 yards on its first three drives and 229 in the first half, but just 107 after halftime. The Chargers were able to try it because Denver’s Tremon Smith committed fair-catch interference on what would have been the final play of the first half when Los Angeles’ Derius Davis attempted to field Riley Dixon’s punt at the Chargers 38.
