Week 13: New England Patriots 45, Los Angeles Chargers 0 (Sunday, December 6, 2020)
Well, that was a thing! :)
The Patriots blew the doors off the Chargers, defeating them 45-0, the biggest deficit at home in Chargers' history. All three phases of the team did a great lob: offense, defense, and special teams.
Special teams really sparkled. Gunner Olszlewski ran a punt return back for a 70-yard touchdown, and a blocked field goal resulted in Devin McCourty scoring a TD. Kicking and punting were perfect.
Cam looked good, and the offense actually moved the ball! The defense forced turnovers, and it helped that L.A.'s special teams were atrocious. Charger rookie phenom Justin Herbert got schooled by Belichick. :)
It was a spectacle, and a lot of fun to watch.
No Tom news. He and Tampa Bay were on their bye. :)
The Patriots and Dolphins won and the Jets (of course!) lost. The Bills are playing Monday night.
The Pats have a short week as they play on Thursday against the L.A. Rams in the same stadium. :)
