Herbert threw two touchdowns and ran for another score, but the Chargers (8-6) came up empty on three red-zone drives. He was helped off on a stretcher and taken to a hospital, where the team said he is in stable condition. The 24-year-old appeared to lose consciousness after slamming his head on the turf in the first quarter. Los Angeles’ defeat came after a terrifying injury to tight end Donald Parham. “We would have loved to have been able to run the clock down and not have any time, but this is the NFL, and you have to get in the end zone.” We needed to put up points, and we got in the end zone, and that was our mission,” Herbert said. It is the second straight season the Chiefs have come to the Chargers’ Hollywood Park home and won in overtime. Justin Herbert gave the Chargers a 28-21 lead with 2:19 remaining on a eight-yard TD pass to Keenan Allen, but couldn’t make it hold up. But you will get another chance and you better be ready for that moment,” Mahomes said. I mean, I promise you I felt as bad as anyone about that throw and that situation, and knew how bad it looked. He was 10 of 16 for 197 yards and three TDs after the turnover. Mahomes bounced back after a costly fourth-quarter interception led to Austin Ekeler‘s touchdown and gave the Chargers a 21-13 advantage. “His endurance down the stretch for an elder statesman – he’s not over the hill – his acceleration is something.” “Everybody is talking about him losing a step, he looked fast to me,” Chiefs coach Andy Reid said after the 32-year-old Kelce had his sixth career game with at least 10 catches. He also had a 69-yard reception that led to Tyreek Hill’s one-yard touchdown and a two-point conversion that tied it at 21.
He had five of his 10 catches for 142 yards in the fourth quarter and overtime. Kelce had been held to six total receptions the past two games, but he broke out in a big way. The Chiefs were 3-4 at the end of October but have won seven straight to improve to 10-4 and go up by two games in the AFC West. “I don’t think I’ve ever been part of a walk-off touchdown or anything like that, so to be in that moment, find him underneath and him making such a dynamic play where, I mean, he cut back, ran by people,” said Mahomes, who completed 31 of 47 for a season-high 410 yards with three touchdowns and an interception. On first-and-10, Kelce pulled in Mahomes’ pass at the 30 and eluded two tackles en route to the end zone, where he was swarmed by teammates. Kelce caught a tying seven-yard touchdown pass with 1:16 left in the fourth quarter, then ended the game with his catch-and-run in overtime.
