For the second consecutive game, Justin Herbert fell short of 150 yards passing.
It once again did not matter.
The Chargers churned out 219 yards rushing behind the legs of J.K. Dobbins (131, one TD) and Gus Edwards (59) and they exited their first road game with a 26-3 victory over the Panthers to move to 2-0 for the first time since 2012.
Quentin Johnston, the team’s first-round pick in 2023, caught two touchdowns to match his total from his rookie season a year ago. His five receptions and 51 yards also led the Bolts offense.
