This fan has a lot to say to people who think the league has gone soft.

The Colts’ offense could just not get going in the game anyway. The Chargers kept them out of the end zone for the entire game and won handsomely. 

The ground game gets the Chargers to the playoffs

With the win over Jeff Saturday’s men, Justin Herbert and Co. punched their ticket to the playoffs. LA’s defense just didn’t let the Colts’ offense into the end zone. The hosts only managed a field goal in the entire game, coming in the second quarter just after the Derwin James hit. The Colts QB Nick Foles threw three interceptions in the game.

Herbert capitalized on his stubborn defense and took the team down the field. He threw 235 passing yards in the game. But it was the ground game that got the Chargers to the end zone. Running back Austin Ekeler scored two rushing touchdowns as the Chargers won 20-3.

The win takes the Chargers’ overall record to 9-6 after fifteen games. With two games still to come, the Chargers have already clinched a playoff berth. What will the Herbert critics say now?
