3. Who stood out in the loss?
We're kidding, but Thursday night's win was a complete team effort highlighted by numerous standout performances.
That included quarterback Justin Herbert, who threw for 227 yards and three scores while adding 62 rushing yards. Herbert earned the Chargers top Pro Football Focus' offensive grade at 93.6.
Kimani Vidal also had a big game with 117 rushing yards and a score while Ladd McConkey (88 receiving yards), Oronde Gadsden (77 receiving yards) and Tre' Harris all caught touchdown passes.
The return of Joe Alt also gave the offense a boost as the 6-foot-8 left tackle was a physical presence against the run and the pass.
Defensively, Cam Hart led the Chargers with three pass breakups as he helped slow down Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson. Hart had the Chargers top PFF defensive grade at 92.4.
The Chargers defense tallied five sacks on Carson Wentz. Justin Eboigbe led the Chargers with a pair of sacks while Mack, Tuli Tuipulotu and Odafe Oweh each had a sack, too.
Rookie safety RJ Mickens snagged his first NFL interception and the Bolts run defense held the Vikings to just 34 yards on the ground.
