[GAME_RECAP]
Big Dill Sports coming in hot from the Hard Rock heat, where the Bolts outlasted the Fins 29-27 in a sun‑splashed nail-biter. Miami struck first with a lightning bolt from De’Von Achane (16 carries, 128 yards, 2 TDs), but the Chargers kept the scoreboard humming with the right leg of Cameron Dicker while the offense found its rhythm. Halftime tilt was Miami’s, but the vibes flipped after the break.
That’s when Justin Herbert (29/38, 264 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT) got surgical. He stacked a pair of third‑quarter payoffs — a red‑zone dart to Ladd McConkey (7 catches, 100 yards, 1 TD) and a swing to Kimani Vidal (3 catches, TD; plus 18 carries for 124 rushing yards) — to put L.A. in front. Not for nothing: with Quentin Johnston dealing with a hammy and trending toward sitting pregame, McConkey’s target bump checked out — and he cashed in. (sbnation.com)
Miami wouldn’t fold. Jaylen Waddle (6 for 95) kept chains moving, Achane punched in another, and Darren Waller stole the lead with a toe‑tap TD at 0:52. But money time belonged to the Bolts: Nyheim Hines ripped a 40‑yard kick return, Herbert dropped a cold‑blooded 42‑yard strike to McConkey, and Dicker iced it from 33 with nine ticks left. One more note for the defense column — a last‑gasp pick from Derwin James Jr. slammed the door as the clock hit zeros.
Big Dill of the Game: Cameron Dicker — 5-for-5 on field goals (including the 33‑yard game‑winner) and 2-for-2 on PATs, a cool 17 points in a two‑point win. That’s clutch cuisine, folks. I’m Dillon “Big Dill” Smith, and that’s a big dill.
