(not to mention this play was returned for a TD before half, how deflating!)
I'll take the calls, and I'm plenty happy with the win, but there was some luck involved for sure.
Rivers wasn't moving forward with the ball. He was clearly not making a passing motion.
Luck is the only reason the Chargers were in it:
Hill was clearly down and his forward progress had long stopped. That should have been a scoring drive.
Their TD drive was manufactured by the refs giving a penalty to Dre (that never happened) and ignoring the OPI while also managing to not call TWO block in the back penalties on the actual TD.
Throw in that their other TD was just Reggie blowing coverage.....
