Union-Tribune columnist Nick Canepa grades the Chargers after their 17-14 win Sunday against the Tennessee Titans at SoFi Stadium.
Winning matters. Justin Herbert gets the grade because of his brilliant final drive that led to the 11th-hour victory. After throwing 262 straight passes without an interception, Herbert tossed the strangest kind in the end zone just before the break. He then had a bad one to kill another drive. He missed a few he rarely does. But later he threw a long one to Keenan Allen that a saint couldn’t have thrown — ditto on the big one to Mike Williams at the end.
Their best game. Khalil Mack’s first-series hit on Ryan Tannehill put the QB on a cart to the locker room, but he returned. Just when it appears former first-rounder Kenneth Murray will remain just a guy he has his best game. Kyle Van Noy did a fine job in coverage and had a large 4th-quarter sack, which Drue Tranquill followed with another.Nasir Adderley had a nice third-quarter pick that led to nothing.
