Chargers outplayed the Lions overall, evidenced by outgaining them on the ground and making it to the red zone 3 times but only cashing in on a touchdown once. The Lions, on the other hand, never made it inside the LAC 20 once. Chargers gashed the Lions with the run game, while the Lions struggled to get the run game going. Stafford was effective in the passing game, most likely due to picking on an injured Chargers secondary, who couldn’t contain Kenny Golladay at all. Rivers had a less than stellar game as he didn’t spread the ball around, targeting Allen, Williams, and Ekeler on 26 of his 36 attempts. Chargers left a ton of points on the board, scoring 0 in the 2nd half despite making it to the DET 28 each of their 4 drives. They also did score touchdowns twice but were both called back on penalties.
