Dillon “Big Dill” Smith here, and SoFi served us a Sunday sizzler. The Chargers outlasted the Broncos 23-20, stealing it at the horn when Cameron Dicker coolly cashed a 43-yarder as time expired after Justin Herbert marched L.A. into range. Earlier, Herbert found Keenan Allen on a gutsy 20-yard strike to knot it at 20—all part of a late two-drive heater that flipped the script. (espn.com)
Denver had the juice out of halftime. J.K. Dobbins lit the dome fuse with a 41-yard burst and a 19-yard score, and Wil Lutz stacked kicks to build a 20-13 lead. Bo Nix kept his poise and uncorked a moonshot before the break—52 yards to Courtland Sutton—on the way to lines of 14/25, 153 yards, 1 TD for Nix and a big-boy day from Sutton (6 for 118 and a TD). And that Broncos front? Feasted—five sacks and a whole lotta heat to make Herbert earn every yard.
But the hinge came late: on third-and-10, Herbert zipped one to Allen for a first down, and a personal foul tacked on 15 more—field position flipped, momentum unlocked. A few completions to rookies Oronde Gadsden and Ladd McConkey later, Dicker did the rest. That closing kick polished off a pair of signature fourth-quarter drives and kept L.A.’s perfect start rolling. (espn.com)
Big Dill of the Game: Justin Herbert (28/47, 300 yards, 1 TD). In a pocket that felt like rush-hour traffic, the bolt-haired boss stayed patient, fed his playmakers—Keenan Allen (7/65/1), Quentin Johnston (6/89), and the versatile rookie Omarion Hampton (19 for 70 and a TD; 6 for 59 receiving)—and delivered the two money drives that mattered most to keep the Chargers rolling to 3-0. That’s big-time ball, and yeah… that’s a big dill. (sbnation.com)
That’s the wrap from Big Dill Sports — where ballin’ is a big dill. Catch you next time.
