Down 14-0, the Chargers needed a spark. After a kickoff went through the back of the end zone, Los Angeles started from their own 25. But on first down, Ekeler found a hole, burst through it, and took it 71 yards to the Cleveland 4.

With a first down from their own 44, Joe Lombardi decided to dial up a deep shot. Justin Herbert launched his trademark down-the-field throw and Williams boxed out Denzel Ward and made a leaping grab for 38 yards.

Early in the second quarter, Joshua Kelley made his presence known with a five-yard rushing touchdown. Kelley went untouched after great blocking to seal the edge for him.

With the Chargers facing a second and goal, Herbert was under pressure by Myles Garrett and was forced to make a quick throw to avoid taking a hit. Luckily, the play called for a screen to Ekeler, who hauled in the desperation pass with one hand. Ekeler then made a defender miss and got a few blocks to score from 12 yards out.
