Herbert’s second interception — the one Patrick Surtain II returned 70 yards for a touchdown — bounced off the hands of running back Austin Ekeler.
But the real mistake was in communication. Ekeler continued running inside on the route when Herbert expected him to stop. As a result, the pass was slightly behind its target.
“Just miscommunication, something we haven’t [practiced] enough,” Ekeler said.
“Just one of those plays we gotta be on the same page.”
Ekeler admitted that he had a drop earlier in the game, one of several that again plagued the Chargers, who have lacked consistency this season even in their hands.
Ekeler did score his 14th touchdown of the season. Entering Sunday, only Indianapolis running back Jonathan Taylor (with 15) had more.
