Those losses created this heighten sense of urgency to avoid losing 3 out of 4 and falling to 3-3 heading into our bye which would have created a sense the season was on the verge of collapse.
But now we can sense a great sigh of relief. After the Sunday upsets we are only a game back in the division and while still having some issue to work out , especially on offense , we pulled out a tough road win against a playoff team from last year.
The Chargers also provided our defense a test against a closer to Elite type QB which they passed the test for the most part only giving up17 points which 7 came after a controversial muffed punt which certainly appeared to be interference.
Offense came out much more effective and didn’t turn the ball over. There were some missed opportunities and their pre snap penalties still a problem , but they stayed resilient and ultimately made the plays and scored when needed.
Ultimately this was a much needed victory and we can enjoy the time off to mend some lingering injuries and continue working out some kinks. Everything we had set our goals for is still in front of us .
