The Los Angeles Chargers defeated the Denver Broncos on Thursday night, with quarterback Justin Herbert leading the way. Herbert connected with wide receiver Josh Palmer for a dramatic touchdown catch in the back of the end zone, and later threw a short pass to Hassan Haskins for a 34-yard score that proved to be the game-winner.
The Chargers came back from a slow start, allowing the Broncos to score touchdowns on their first three drives. However, they were able to dig themselves out of a hole and come away with a crucial victory. The win moves the Chargers to a 97% probability of making the playoffs.
Herbert’s performance was instrumental in the Chargers’ win, and he emphasized the importance of the game, calling it a “playoff game” for his team. The Chargers’ win prevented the Broncos from clinching a playoff berth and sets up a crucial game next week.
