Chargers vs New England Patriots Game Summary
From the kickoff, the Chargers’ level of performance overwhelmed the Patriots on both sides of the ball. The thunderous performance from Justin Herbert set the tone after completing 26 out of 38 passes for 281 yards, alongside three touchdowns without throwing any interceptions. Patriot’s offense was quieted by an on-point defense and enabled by an offense with strong running support.
Struggling to establish a rhythm, rookie quarterback Drake Maye checked the ball 22 times, completing only 12 for 117 yards. Additionally, he managed a passing touchdown to wide-receiver DeMario Douglas. All in all, the Chargers’ defense delivered a brutal performance which overruled all the possibilities of any offensive actions for the Maye’s team.
Conclusion
The game was won by the Chargers because of Herbert and Dobbins’ great offense and because McConkey had a great game with the catches. On the other hand, the Patriots could get anything going after a good try from Demario Douglas. In the end this saw the Chargers winning the game comfortably and sure there is a loss there for the Patriots but there is still a lot of thinking to do or changes to be made.
