NFL: Justin Herbert Shakes Off Poor Start To Lead The Chargers To A Road Win Over The Raiders
"Geno Smith rebounded from that mistake. On the next drive, he connected with rookie wide receiver Dont'e Thornton Jr. for 20 yards. Though they made it down to the Chargers' 26 yard line, LA edge rusher Khalil Mack recorded his first sack of the season, which forced Las Vegas to settle for a 54-yard field goal and a 3-3 tie. Since being traded away from the Raiders in 2018, Mack has 12.5 sacks in nine games against the Silver and Black."
"After missing on four of his first five pass attempts, Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert finally got back on track. He accounted for 57 of LA's next 72 yards, including a ten-yard touchdown pass to longtime Chargers wideout Keenan Allen for a 10-3 lead going into the second quarter. That was Allen's second TD reception in as many games. Early in the second quarter, Vegas wideout Jakobi Meyers took a slant pass 25 yards deep into Chargers territory."
The Los Angeles Chargers beat the Las Vegas Raiders 20-9 as Justin Herbert recovered from a 1-for-5 start to finish 18-of-22 for 237 yards, two touchdowns, and 26 rushing yards. An early Geno Smith overthrow resulted in an interception that set up a Chargers field goal, and Smith later drove the Raiders into field-goal range before Khalil Mack's sack forced a 54-yard kick. Herbert threw a ten-yard touchdown to Keenan Allen and a 60-yard score to Quentin Johnston. Jakobi Meyers' 25-yard slant set up a short Raiders field goal, keeping the game competitive early.
