Justin Herbert finds Keenan Allen for a late fourth-quarter TD to force a 20-20 tie, and Cameron Dicker caps the win with a field goal as the Chargers beat the Broncos 23-20. Allen has kicked off the season with top-tier fantasy production (19 catches, 194 yards, 3 TD through three games), reinforcing his status as a weekly high-floor target. A viral moment involving Allen’s wife Ciandra sparked social buzz, but the on-field connection remains the fantasy story.

The win keeps Los Angeles rolling in a tight AFC West, highlighting an offense capable of clutch yardage and red-zone efficiency. For fantasy, Allen’s volume plus Herbert’s improv play should keep his fantasy ceiling elevated, with Dicker offering a safe kicker floor in a Chargers offense that can close out tight games.

Denver’s Bo Nix led a high-variance night that fizzled in the red zone, leaving a signature late drive uncompleted as the Broncos fell 23-20 in SoFi. Sutton carved space for a potential walk-off, but a missed chance and a wave of penalties derailed Denver’s bid for a second straight close win. LA’s clinic on ball control and a late field goal dashed Denver’s hopes, keeping Payton’s squad winless in one-score games through three weeks.

Denver dominated the Chargers in time of possession but squandered opportunities and racked up penalties, while Nix’s 14-of-25 showing underscored the run game’s ongoing instability. A 52-yard TD and two deep shots offered glimmers, yet the offense lacked rhythm when it mattered most. Harbaugh’s Chargers stifled late drives, and Denver’s season remains a rollercoaster of flashes and costly miscues.
