Herbert and the Chargers were finally able to air it out in a 23-16 victory over the Denver Broncos on Sunday. Herbert had a season-high 237 passing yards and completed passes to nine players as he won for the first time in four trips to Denver.

Chargers' coach Jim Harbaugh had to leave the game early because of an apparent illness but he and his team recovered in Denver to beat the Broncos, 23-16.

Jesse Minter was pressed into emergency duty during the early part of the game when Bolts coach Jim Harbaugh headed for the blue medical tent, then the locker room. The team said Harbaugh was questionable to return but he did come back.
