Los Angeles Chargers vs Dallas Cowboys | Week 16 Game Preview

Dallas Cowboys at home this week trying to get back to 500. They aren’t dead yet, but it won’t take much more to get tossed onto the cart with the old guy. >> McCarthy to the end zone. Touchdown, Jaylen Naylor. >> The Chargers are in town. LA, the type of team that could hit them in the head with a club. Just put the final nail in the coffin that holds the KC dynasty. 10- win team on a three-game winning streak. >> And to the end zone. CAUGHT. TOUCHDOWN. GRABBED ON the play by Lambert Smith. >> Chargers may have a banged up quarterback, a banged up offensive line, but that defense of theirs. To use the parlance of our times is just a banger. Held KC to 13 points. Third straight team they’ve held under 20 points. And they’ve held six of their last seven under 21. >> Third and 10. Godric a block. HERE COMES AWAY. Down goes Mahomes. >> Not only did they knock out Patrick Mahomes for the year, they picked him off. No TDs allowed held him to a 62 rating before he left and then came up with another pick of Uncle Rico to seal the win. >> INTERCEPTED AND the Chargers are going to win and knock the Chiefs out of the playoffs. >> So Dak Prescott facing the secondary holding quarterbacks to the lowest rate in the NFL. They have 17 INTs against 12 touchdowns. Dak didn’t throw any TDs last week, a sub90 rate. No INTs though, so no worries about whether they were his fault or not. And he did throw for 294 yards. >> Prescott middle shot. CD L coming easily there. It’s a gain of 30. >> Some Cowboys fans last week calling out last week’s preview, thinking his two INTs the week prior were blamed on him. For the record, no one said they were his fault, just said he was intercepted twice and left with a sub 80 rate as a result. Proof I’m not AI if nothing else. And I’m not anti-Dak either. Cowboys offense still generated 26 points in their loss to Minnesota. 24 or more points in five straight. >> Williams inside into the end zone for a Cowboys touchdown. >> Two for 12 on third down didn’t help matters and trying six field goals while only scoring two TDs didn’t either. Prescott threw 38 times, only took two sacks. That comes with the territory. gets a Chargers pass rush off a five bag outing. One from Khalil Mack. Don’t expect any Christmas gifts from John this year, Jim. He already gave you one. Two sacks from Adafay has seven and nine games. And Tuli Tui Palotu with two, giving him 12 on the year. >> Brought down from behind and Tui Palotu gets his 11th sack of the season. >> Their secondary gave up 47 yards to Taekquin Thornton. 51 to Rasheed Rice, though it was on 11 targets. 70 yards to Taylor Swift’s future roadie. Dallas’s tight end Jake Ferguson only 16 yardds versus Minnesota. George Pickkins only 33. Ryan Fenoi with 40. CD Lamb, the lead man, 111. Third straight 100 plus yard game. >> Complete on fourth down. Dak and CD connect. And the drive keeps going. The other Cowboy to show out in that loss, Javvante Williams. 91 rush yards, 6-1 a carry, plus a score. >> Helping pave the way for Javvante Williams. Big run as he gets thrown down. >> Chargers defense hasn’t been great versus running backs, but didn’t have issues with a few Kareem Hunt and Isaiah Pacheco handoffs they faced last week. Their defensive play ended up being enough for the win despite their offense only scratching out 16 points. >> Threeman rush. Herbert on the move. the pump fake. Almost lost it and fourth and goal. >> That’s fewer than 23 points in three of their last four. Only made it inside the 20 twice versus Kansas City. Just five for 14 on third down. Justin Herbert taking four more sacks. He’s now the QB grass expert of 2025. No one’s face has been in it more than his has. >> FAKING GRAB GELOTTI. GOT HIM AGAIN. >> He’s hurt and his line is made up of several belisters. He went for 210 yards. one TD got picked off a sub90 rate has only topped a 91 rate once in his last four games. >> Hit as he throws intercepted and picked off ON THE PLAY GELOTTI. >> DON’T get it twisted as they say. He’s playing warrior ball. Just hard to produce big numbers with the injury issues. But maybe the Dallas Cowboys can help. Arguably the league’s worst secondary. Gave up a career-high 250 yards to JJ McCarthy last week. Two TDs, a 100 plus rate. >> Throwing it towards THE END ZONE. CAUGHT HELD ON TO Jaylen Naylor. >> Chargers points struggling offense getting a shot at a Cowboys defense that’s given up 28 plus points in three straight games. 34 allowed to Minnesota. >> McCarthy the keeper the walk-in. >> Dallas did hold Minnesota to two for nine on third down, but let him convert three times on fourth down. They didn’t sack McCarthy once on 24 pass attempts. Gave up 66 yards to TJ Hawinson and Jordan Addison. Two TDs allowed to Jaylen Naylor. Held Justin Jefferson to 22 yardds on eight targets at least. Herbert’s week 15 balls spread to eight guys. Lad Mani only 20 yards. Keenan Allen 36. Trey Harris had 49. >> And the pass caught. HARRIS CAUGH THE BALL. And tight end Orandde Gatson led the team with 61. >> Sets up. HERE COMES KOFTUS. THERE GOES THE BALL. Caught inside the five. What a grab made. Gatston. >> Run game. Kamani Vidal 33 yds 2.8 yds per carry. Less than 45 yardds backto-back weeks in part cuz Omaran Hampton has been back. He led them with 61 yards. 4-1 a try >> for Hampton. And Salur’s block opens the door. Hampton >> Cowboys have also struggled versus running backs this season among all their other issues on defense, but they did hold Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason under three per attempt last week. The Stars and the Bolts have only met 13 times, boys up three, first played in 1972, and put on quite the show. Sellers at 6’4 at 188 lbs is rail thin but lethal. a legitimate gamebreaker who caught five touchdowns in 1972. Montgomery returned home to San Diego the next week and his recovery of a fumble punt signaled a 34 to28 victory. Heat. Heat.
