None of the players had any interest in discussing what might have happened if Sunday’s gamble failed and they had lost.
The Chargers’ last-second 25-24 victory over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday kept them in the thick of a heated race for an AFC playoff spot.
Herbert then hit tight end Gerald Everett for a successful two-point conversion and an eventual 25-24 victory over the Cardinals. No one in the Chargers’ jubilant postgame locker room had any interest in discussing what might have happened if the gamble failed and they had lost.“Yeah, you can’t really think like that in the NFL,” Herbert said when asked about the possibility of a failed two-point attempt.
“For us to go out there, I think the defense believed in us, hopefully, and we believed in them and we all believed in each other going out there for that last play. We knew that we had a good play and the right guys out there. … I imagined that we were going to go for it just because that’s kind of how aggressive we play, and I love that about our coach.
“At this point, all games for us feel like a must-win,” Ekeler said while standing in a quiet corner of the locker room. “You see the rest of the AFC winning games and we want to get in ourselves, so we have to catch up a few. To do that we have to make sure we take care of our jobs.”Nine would be cutting it too fine, as happened last season.Sunday: at Las Vegas Jan 7 or 8: at Denver
“We’re just living week-to-week,” Staley said. “It was about this game for us and pouring into this game and doing what we felt like was going to win us a football game and I felt like that was going to win us the football game. That’s what we’re doing here is taking it week by week, pouring into this week as a life of its own. Our guys did that this week and we were able to finish it.”In the end, because of the way it ended, it was easy to overlook one critical play from the second quarter.
