Coming off a pair of three-point victories, the first a 22-19 win over the defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles and the second a 16-13 win over the rival Kansas City Chiefs, the Los Angeles Chargers looked as if they were in for another close contest this past Sunday with the Dallas Cowboys, as the two teams traded scores on the first six drives of the game, with the Bolts ultimately taking a 21-17 lead into halftime.
But that was all the scoring America's Team could muster, as the Chargers' defense pitched a shutout in the second half, holding the Cowboys' high-octane offense, which led the league in total yards per game coming into this matchup, to just 119 yards over the final 30 minutes.
