Despite missing a pair of practice Thursday and Friday of last week, Ekeler came through for his fantasy owners by totaling over 120 yards of total offense and scoring an early touchdown. Unfortunately, that fantasy success did not translate to real-life success as the team fell 27-24 to the Patriots on Halloween.
Coinciding with the holiday, the performance by the Chargers was a bit more frightening than most probably expected. The team still scored 24 point, but that was only done in spite of numerous mistakes. Ill-timed penalties and miscommunication errors were abundant and it made the final score downright scary to look at.
