Cameron Dicker - Perfect in win vs. Broncos Dicker converted on 2-for-2 field-goal attempts and 2-for-2 point-after tries during Thursday's 34-27 victory over Denver.
Impact Dicker finished out the big TNF win over the Broncos perfect on all of his attempts, and he hasn't missed a field goal since Week 9 against the Browns. The fourth-year kicker has now gone 31-for-33 on FGAs and made 27 of 30 extra-point attempts across 15 games this season.

Quentin Johnston - Makes three catches Thursday Johnston secured three of six targets for 18 yards in the Chargers' 34-27 win over the Broncos on Thursday night.
Impact Johnston played a minor role as his final line implies, finishing the night with the sixth-fewest receiving yards on the Chargers. The second-year speedster had put together back-to-back five-catch, one-touchdown efforts in his previous two games, so Thursday's modest and scoreless line represented a notable downturn. Johnston will look to take advantage of the Patriots' non-Christian Gonzalez inconsistent secondary coverage during a Week 17 road matchup in New England on Saturday, Dec. 28.

Joshua Palmer - Scores on conversion pass in win Palmer secured three of six targets for 41 yards and caught a two-point conversion pass in the Chargers' 34-27 win over the Broncos on Thursday night.
Impact The veteran wideout was second to Ladd McConkey in both receptions and receiving yards while tying for the team lead in targets. Palmer's two-point conversion grab was also important, as it gave the Chargers a three-point lead early in the fourth quarter following a Derius Davis go-ahead 19-yard touchdown grab. Palmer remains a clear complementary option in Los Angeles' passing attack that's yet to surpass 78 receiving yards in any game, but he could see some additional opportunities in a Week 17 road clash against the Patriots on Saturday, Dec. 28 if New England's standout cornerback Christian Gonzalez spends the majority of his time on McConkey.

Gus Edwards - Excels as lead back Thursday Edwards rushed 14 times for 68 yards and two touchdowns and brought in one of two targets for three yards in the Chargers' 34-27 win over the Broncos on Thursday night.
Impact Edwards was the surprising leader of the Chargers' ground attack Thursday night with his highest carry total since Week 2 and best rushing yardage tally of the campaign. The veteran back also flashed his signature red-zone prowess by recording one- and five-yard rushing scores in the first and third quarters, respectively. Edwards' rookie backfield mate Kimani Vidal carried just five times and didn't see any targets, so the former should head into a Week 17 road matchup against the Patriots on Saturday, Dec. 28 with the lead-back job in hand.

Ladd McConkey - Paces pass catchers in win McConkey secured all six targets for 87 yards in the Chargers' 34-27 win over the Broncos on Thursday night.
Impact McConkey set the pace in receptions and receiving yards while sharing the team lead in targets with fellow receivers Joshua Palmer and Quentin Johnston. The rookie wideout final catch of the night came early in the fourth quarter but was critical, as his 17-yard grab took the ball down to the Broncos' 19-yard line and Justin Herbert threw a go-ahead touchdown pass to Derius Davis on the next play to give the Chargers a lead they wouldn't relinquish. McConkey has come on strong down the stretch, as he'll head into a Week 17 road matchup against the Patriots on Saturday, Dec. 28 with at least six receptions and 83 receiving yards in four of the last five contests.

Justin Herbert - Piles up yardage against tough D Herbert completed 23 of 31 passes for 284 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in the Chargers' 34-27 win over the Broncos on Thursday night. He also rushed eight times f...
Impact Herbert put together a mostly crisp performance that saw him generate his highest passing yardage total since Week 11. The 2020 first-round pick brought the Chargers back from an 11-point third-quarter deficit, connecting with Derius Davis (19 yards) and Hassan Haskins (34 yards) for his pair of touchdown tosses and hitting Joshua Palmer with a two-point conversion pass after the first score. Herbert's clutch second-half performance pushed the Chargers into a tie in the standings with the Broncos at 9-6, and the talented signal-caller will look to carry over the momentum into a Week 17 road battle versus the Patriots on Saturday, Dec. 28.

Denzel Perryman - Questionable to return Thursday Perryman (groin) is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Broncos.
Impact The starting inside linebacker missed the last four games with a groin issue before returning for Thursday night's divisional matchup. He made one solo tackle before exiting. Troy Dye saw extended action in Perryman's place the last three games, making 29 tackles (15 solo) over those contests.
