Justin Herbert threw a 1-yard touchdown pass to Austin Ekeler with 15 seconds left, then hit Gerald Everett for the decisive conversion to give the Los Angeles Chargers a 25-24 win over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.
GLENDALE, ARIZONA - NOVEMBER 27: James Conner #6 of the Arizona Cardinals breaks tackle from Derwin James Jr. #3 of the Los Angeles Chargers in the fourth quarter at State Farm Stadium on November 27, 2022 in Glendale, Arizona. GLENDALE, Ariz. — Los Angeles Chargers coach Brandon Staley knew he was going for the winning 2-point conversion a few minutes before it actually happened, so when the moment arrived, there was no hesitation and no looking at his playbook.
Herbert completed 35 of 47 passes for 274 yards and three touchdowns for the Chargers , who snapped a two-game skid while staying in the thick of the AFC playoff race. Arizona has lost four of five, leaving it with almost no shot at making the NFC playoff field.Herbert now has led 10 fourth-quarter comebacks in his three seasons. But with opportunities to win the past two weeks in similar situations, the Chargers fell short.
Murray threw for 191 yards, two touchdowns and an interception and ran for a score after missing the previous two games with a hamstring injury. "We had our chances," Cardinals coach Kliff Kingsbury said. "I think both teams played well enough to win. They made the plays at the end, unfortunately we didn’t. Our offense got it back twice — went three-and-out — can’t do that against a good team."
