Not many people had the\u00a0Houston Texans<\/a>\u00a0doing anything against the\u00a0Los Angeles Chargers<\/a>.<\/p>\n However, the players still had to play the game.<\/p>\n In a quest for their first playoff victory since the 2018 campaign, Los Angeles came out dominating, taking an early 6-0 lead.<\/p>\n Things would change in a weird way when a broken play got the Texans\u2019 offense going and shifted the energy in the contest.<\/p>\n C.J. Stroud<\/a>\u00a0had trouble fielding a snap but still was able to roll to his right and find Xavier Hutchinson for a 34-yard gain on third-and-16. Stroud eventually ended that possession with a 13-yard touchdown pass to Nico Collins.<\/p>\n The Texans took a 7-6 lead and would never relinquish that lead.<\/p>\n Chargers QB\u00a0Justin Herbert<\/a>\u00a0had thrown just three interceptions all season long but had four on Saturday, battling Houston\u2019s defense.<\/p>\n He ended the contest just 14-of-32 for 242 yards with a touchdown and four picks.<\/p>\n It was a shocking end to their promising season.<\/p>\n It was so stressful that Chargers wide receiver DJ Chark decided to relax by doing something that could get him suspended.<\/p>\n The Chargers wideout took to his Instagram story and posted a marijuana joint in his hand and wrote, \u201cShoutout my ni\u2013a bud. Been a long 3 1\/2 months.\u201d<\/p>\n TRENDING: #CHARGERS<\/a> RECEIVER DJ CHARK IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE GAME ON INSTAGRAM.<\/p>\n \ud83d\ude2d\ud83d\ude2d\ud83d\ude2d<\/p>\n (\ud83d\udcf8 @jessisbest_<\/a>) pic.twitter.com\/b7EAAPhhrV<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 MLFootball (@_MLFootball) January 12, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
