And I thought the last game was bad. The Chargers forced six turnovers while committing three of their own,
and still needed overtime to put away the Texans. This game was so sloppy, overtime finally ended after three consecutive
turnovers! Houston begins moving the ball to mid-field, but a David Carr fumble gives the ball back to San Diego. Very next
play, Tomlinson can’t hold on and gives it back to the Texans. Not to be outdone in this game of hot potato, next play Carr
throws an interception! This time the Chargers decide to hold onto the ball until they kick a game winning 30 yard field goal
with 10 seconds left in overtime.
