An eloquent performance from Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert kept the Bolts from having a record of .500.
Instead, the team now sits at 5-3 after a 27-24 victory over the Eagles after Herbert was 27 of 31 for 319 yards with two passing touchdowns and one rushing touchdown.
Herbert has six career games with multiple passing touchdowns and a rushing touchdown. This achievement is tied with quarterbacks Kyler Murray and Cam Newton for the most in a player’s first two seasons in league history.
Let’s see how the general population reacted to the Chargers’ win on social media:

#Chargers WR Keenan Allen showed why he’s *that* dude today. 12 catches on 13 targets for 100+ yards. Velcro for hands today.

FINAL: #Chargers 27, Eagles 24
Dustin Hopkins' field goal from 29 yards with 2 seconds remaining wins it. LAC escapes Philadelphia with a much-needed victory, ending a two-game skid. They are once again tied for first place in the AFC West.
