The Chargers blew their second double-digit of the season against the Broncos but managed to avoid a complete collapse as they outlasted the Broncos 19-16 on a x-yard field goal by Michael Badgley. The win gave the Bolts their third in a row — and their second-straight in the AFC West — all while securing an improvement on their 2019 record with their sixth victory of the season.
Justin Herbert broke the rookie passing touchdown record set by Baker Mayfield when he hit Austin Ekeler for his 28th score in the second quarter. He finished with 21-of-33 passing for 253 yards and the lone touchdown.
