Dallas Cowboys vs Los Angeles Chargers | 2024 Preseason Week 3 Game Highlights NFL Aug 24, 2024

by different officials at different point of that return the first flag obviously was holding against the cowboy during their return holding receiving team so the hold goes against Dallas it'll back them up and Trey Lance who is expected to play this entire game it'll a former highly touted top three selection in the NFL draft there was so much promise so much raw ability and he's still figuring who was I recall Mr Irrelevant in the draft that year and what a career he has scratched out for himself here on first down number of starters on both sides who will not play play action pass swing it to the outside and the first completion of the game goes brought to you by Paramount plus your home to stream should be outstanding and the big thing with JT Woods is his versatility been if the rookie Coulson can make an immediate impact in his first preseason action Davis stays in there he's got the first down handoff this Chargers defense has had some sparkling moments only allowing 12 excuse me allowing 13 points to a Rams offense preseason game 16 points to Seattle they've done a lot of good things they need the offense to catch up Lance back to the air swing It Wide Open nicely delivered to Billy Johnson who spins his way for a first down Jefferson who's played well yeah a lot of cushion there given by Dean Leonard who was just outstanding The End Zone but that time he gave way too much cushion and Lance comfortable action in the preseason so far for Dallas Mike McCarthy trying to continue his development process after they made the trade for him first year man out of Fresno State keys to the game are sponsored by your Southern California Audi dealers visit your local Audi dealer to experience Audi with the gates he said no injuries he wants everybody to stay out there stay healthy execution has really been what he's preached and continued evaluation of this team and seeing who will be on that 53 floi The Man in Motion here's a bounce on the cut Davis part of that evaluation will be second and third teamers dreading next Tuesday when the cuts happen against the Cowboys Davis picks up 12 and this front it out Lance going back to the air Lance dumped out Davis is devoured Dean benefited from the defensive call that time it was a two deep defense with the corner playing shallow he read it quickly and just negative play of this drive for the Cowboys the coaching staff has been so impressed with Leonard has continued to put he seen out of the versatility of his defensive backs as Duce vaugh runs into a wall at the 47 yd line Chargers horse collar tackle there because everything was moving except his upper body he was pulled down in 76 let's see Coulson got up high got him towards the shoulder no good tackle on the sideline goes for 25 yds fresh set of downs just outside the Red Zone and off vaugh patient Jefferson adds to his early tally Trey Lance this is exactly what the Cowboys were hoping to get when they made the deal with San Francisco to bring has been an excellent number two but Lance is a developmental piece and we're seeing it now at 24 years old all of that potential that he flashed the ability to move the pocket and throw on the run and look where this ball is perfectly thrown so the floro with the catch right down to the uh 6yd lineon goal with Davis the big back at 511 202 back in there oh he fumbled the snap or on the exchange rather was landley yeah it was one of these run pass options he reads the defense he wanted to keep it but the mesh point well we've seen the Chargers come up with a couple of goal line stands one last week where Dean Leonard had the interceptions against the Seahawks Lance and that's knocked away beautiful play Stride for stride Finley get Mentor bringing the blitz off the slot and that speeds things up for Trey Lance here it comes perfect great job on the blitz and great job on the on the previous third and long Lance surveys through his progressions in the pocket dump it down and up rookie linebacker on scoon maker to keep him out now he wears number 25 but he plays a lot bigger than his number 632 boys out of the end zone to break set up this field goal attempt another good series the last three plays for the charger worked his way back worked with him at Michigan as well as Brandon AUB will come on he is nearly automatic and one of the best Aubrey will send it away woodn't and Davis back to return and this will be knel down sck with his final opportunity to prove himself as to why he deserves that roster spot as qb2 once again for the Chargers interesting he gets to play the entire game which really should ease some of the pressure on him with that he feels like there were legitimate sparkling moments from last week score and we're talking about a completely different ball game overall but still no touchdowns in the preseason for the Chargers Isaiah Spiller is the running back he does Davis up field look at him go Davis turn on the burners will they catch him no yards and the Chargers have the opportunity now to kick an extra point wow it took Dicker with a chance to make it 73 as Davis shows off what we already knew the electrifying speed ever and his quote when I have the ball in my hands I expect to score every good Davis knows quite nicely back on the field great to have him back Jim Harbo that was the one guy who said we'll have DD back which will be a nice pop we'll send it deep to Cropper and Davis one hop they got to return this it's in the landing Zone and that's going to go to the 20 zone so good field position for this Chargers defense as they try to battle once again let's go back to the touchdown foku he takes the inside and now it doesn't have the speed to get outside and now it felt like foko was the only one who really had the angle and now we'll see how this back to the air Lance and that's an Aaron throw looking for vau was heavily covered with Shane Lee in the area number [Music] 91 excuse me tyris so it sets up second down in 10 Jim Hara talked about how much fun everybody's having in practice how off for vaugh pushing the pile using every bit of his frame to drag it for four yards but for Harbaugh it's been but two he said guys like Denzel Perman and JK Dobbins and Cameron Dicker the energy that they exude per me as they headed into week three of the preseason you you get your Superstar quarterback back and it makes everybody feel good Lance swing it outside incomplete good coverage by Dean Leonard but a flag is [Applause] in his left hand did a good job of deflecting the ball away a of the foul automatic first down watch the coverage here by Leonard did not see any grab there there there was contact before the five yds even so the penalty and vaugh is never afraid to go amongst the Giants as he's pushed back at the 39 comfort zone for quality and style well Jim Harbaugh feels a lot more comfortable after Justin Herbert return to practice this week this is what he said you mentioned the angel were excited too I don't know if the they all heard the angels thing though I know the coach did that's all that matters play action pass now Lance underneath another completion fighting that's a first down extra effort sixy pickup really a tremendous effort there by Fant he goes 250 there spins to the inside and picks up the first down confidence continues to grow there as well Davis back in there Davis has the ball on first down looking to get to the outside he won't tackle Matt will let's go the third-year man out of North Dakota called for it but Lee was the uh charger who stopped the Seahawks at the goal line stand that we showed earlier mentioned all Pack 12 a couple seasons ago after transferring from Alabama and he was one of the few bright spots even only to make this catch but to go a long way with it if he makes the grab he'd be the first to tell you that too the double numbers are always great you got to get used to it you're right College I go right back to it triple numbers triple numbers they exist there to help out as Lor loroi thought he was going to bust that long instead it'll be third and long good reaction there on the outside for the Chargers rallying to the ball thir down and 12 after the penalty made it first and 20 douche vaugh who is an excellent pass catcher out of the back field protection that's going to be incomplete no flag on the field Chargers defense will get the stop and get off well after that first good pressure here as well on Lance coming right up the middle he absorbed a little bit of a blow there good by Kennedy but again tight coverage in the secondary so Davis who had the seven foot of anger and he just floats his way out of bounds and out toward the 10 so a long de three lead what they have now 90 yds get 89 yds away stick delivers oh nearly picked off that was dangerous as Maris Bell had a reception of the pre-season not sure where stick is going with this trying to squeeze it into Brendan rice but throwing it being intercepted stick as mentioned his biggest key playing clean football turnover threee turnover handoff Spiller and he's tripped up in the back field Quick Step plus your home to turn the NFL on CBS every Sunday all season long well sticks the obvious one but foko and Parham fighting for SP talked about Greg Roman wanting a blocking tight end but in my heart I love a guy who six touchdowns perhaps third and N stick steps up feeling the pressure stick play made by Andrew [Applause] booth now stick is forced tough throw to make and he throws it just a little bit to the back hip of rice if he gets it out in front it's going to be a after the explosive to start the Chargers offense day JK Scott will Boot It Away Billy Johnson oh he gets walloped what a [Applause] hit or is it not it's Jaylen Johnson the double numbers 56 yd Punt and the NFL kicks off with four days of Games Starting Thursday September 5th so gather your friends family and co-workers together

10-year career he has n and a half sacks number 37 left side of the screen he's going to just embarrass the horses a fumble here Lance did a great job of scooping that ball back to his body it felt like we were in fast Hano Rich gains four rookie Spotlight is presented by UCLA H keeping in his first preseason action after dealing with a couple of injuries through training camp and OTAs with the third round pick National Champion he's got one after being adopted and his family were big Michigan fans he eventually gets the Ann Arbor first down yardage as pton Hender shot could only get to the 35 and the Chargers for a three and out and for Coulson played to linebacker benefit he has obviously is working with Jesse M and Harbaugh at Michigan they've said that they drapped at him for a reason just as they did with Darius Davis who had the long run we've seen him inside that's turn with a minute 36 to play in this opening quarter well again the big story this week was Justin Herbert getting back on the practice fielded about with the team but at the same time a lot of the question mark was especially for these newer receivers some of the rookies or some of the guys like a DJ Char week sarin you just never know when that chemistry is going to come into effect of having thrown a 100 Balls right the motion man stick and he's got a completion gain seven so the question Mak this past week where Herbert threw him just a def ball and he didn't realize how far he could actually throw and he goes he's got a cannon quick chemistry with guys who maybe were doing to the team like that well you first thing is you want to throw him catchable balls put him put the ball tattooed and really uh that builds his confidence in you as a quarterback Isaiah wooden he's down practice practice practice practice and you just can't get enough of it that's why it's so important even individual routes one B second round pick lad offal time arbaugh getting the official word this is such a momentum killer it has been determined that it is third down is short ah Scott coming into the game as an eligible receiver we've seen him work as a tight end a little bit versatility Barham the motion man not lock in there at fullback hand off up the gut and that looks like the chains and likely end this opening quarter at AT&T Stadium and it took the Chargers until their final preseason game but they do get into the end zone in this first quarter a 70 yd touch history will be written Legends will be made two sides will square off but only one will emerge the victors unic and when they show up we show up cuz this football it's different it's Smashmouth in your face layer on the line it's for No One the NFL London immunic Games only on NFL Network Char luxury sweet at soofi stadium is one of the best premium offerings in all of Los Angeles's sports and entertainment there's a charger swe yeah 33 was one of my favorite numbers oh the 14 yeah I don't know that one of the wide receiver battle in Pre training camp and preseason games watch the strength he has well if ever is a guy trying to seal the deal it may be to argue against him Jim Harbaugh just keeps saying he belongs he absolutely belongs he loves he keeps looking at him saying read but deceptively gets past and showcases again why he's been so strong through the preseason spanning the quarters of the 78 yd touchdown Chargers have run eight offensive plays they have 106 before the Gold Line vaugh vaugh and he's hit at the 25 with a thank you 18 yd line half the distance I'll let you have this one because they're two number sixes two holds penalties declin holding offense number six that pen accepted half the distance of the goal first down I'm going to go with number 36 Nathaniel Pete he goty called for one but uh this cowboys offense will have to go 91 yds down the field charger defense has found a rhythm a couple but another penalty down Greg rad has hading from the end of the Run automatic first down Christopher Hinton will pick it [Music] up Lance he's got space to work and he's got wheels stutter step and then banged out of bounds and the hit made by Chris Collins so a 6-y pickup haven't seen Lance really use his legs all that much so far he's been disappear into the pile sets up third and very short by Royce Freeman the short yardage defense full line stand but they did a good job against the Rams last week both in the secondary and in short yardage situ loves to be aggressive especially in these situations this is a third and short two hand off [Applause] up JT Woods who's playing a lot more cornerback the first one to get there defense that time he was looking for the off tackle run Royce Freeman the college teammate of Justin Herbert at Oregon floro and he just hops forward not much working there on the Ken adds another tackle to his tally in this game said more than anything he wants to see consistent execution at the highest level to repeatedly do what they're capable of down after down and looks like TI tar was a little bit slow happy with what he's seen out of his offense especially considering what we saw the first two weeks of preseason he's been waiting for this breakout and now another third down up oh picked off get up run it back not a lot of room to work with but Tony Jefferson had a great career with the Baltimore Ravens retired became a scout Feld inter first Angeles and makes in his career in a regular season had four picks but this one turns back to Cowboys as they were off by Jefferson a 143 lead in the Chargers offense that was without a touchdown through the first two games they've got two plays for 12 but the first two touchdowns of the preseason on two EXP explosives great field position to start this trve Patterson Stutter Step squeezing his way through and he's brought down we'll see how the Chargers work on this situation but so far so good for East stick on the big plate of 9 is eligible got Davis into the end zone early and now Scott Matlock back in there second and three hand off patteron went airborne and sets up third and one now second year in the NFL you're part of a defensive line with some accomplished veterans what have you learned from those guys about having a long team uh with with KH joy and and but um they all have like certain things that they do so that's just stuff I got to learn from them and and uh yeah being consistent what have you learned from them that you're implementing in your routine uh stretching or hopping in the tubs or having like a H was to come to your house or whatever like that's just what it is thanks for your time all right guys sorry what was that tul is a great kid and he's just gotten so much in his NFL career since coming over after a nice career at us he was just 20 years old when he was drafted sets up second and 10 oh this is a big Target to miss so badly sails under pressure and that should be a penalty number 93 hitting the quarter so second down and 10 instead Patterson Circle set up third and about five Buddy Johnson tracks him down you got to be impressed with with Patterson's ability and that might be stretching both those figures but he's quick fearless and got great leg drop to be heading towards the goal line we' seen him Spiller mostly in this game it will be Spiller spelling him stick steps up stick's going to tuck and run stick looking for itman Johnson lays the bone but stick picks up enough and keeps the drive is alive as a quarterback you have to stay alive you do that too often that's willingness and ability to use his legs now first down and goal Patterson back in there Red Zone nightmare for defenses instead they go the other way Endzone incomplete looking for rice rice was going to just let that ball drop into his hands and watch the right hand of Clark here as he's 99 61 and 66 are eligible 61 66 and 99 are eligible so barnhard in more of a jumbo pack package on second down and goal Parham does stay in there big 89 play clock timeout Mike McCarthy all the way down field will burn first first time out Dallas a 3 rates Donald Parham you mentioned 67 career catches 11 of them have been touchdown this is where he thrives and prove his worth once again but if you look at the Personnel in the game he's the only receiver in the game right now to say he won't be doubled or triped team or are you trying to see what he looks like as a blocker now in this on the right side of the line here he goes to the left side again keep our eye on Parham it's Matt lock at the full third down Johnson with a tackle with viell who's not going to play today Elijah doson Jared Pon who we've seen as Spiller goes to the sill checking back in there as well well I would anticipate some type of roll out for Johnson brilliantly R by the Cowboys defense Patterson 34 sneaking out of the back field and he is going to tremendous athletic move to knock it away with his right hand so the Chargers get it picked in the preseason 21 yds out here Jim haros said Cameron Dicker ball it's hard to argue that extend ceron Dicker field goal that was following the Tony Jefferson interception of tre Lance he loves the fact that they have Dicker in his directional kicking ability his pinpoint accuracy for this new Dynamic kickoff to the corner forces the return from Davis Davis Spilled Out of Bounds shy of the 25 Bron rice is going to make Day meal on at Shaky's Pizza Parlor the home of the original pizza chicken and Mojo since 1954 while the Chargers Edwards are good who could be the potential three and four it's really between these four guys yeah probably just between then the other two D Von jitterbugs his way past the 30 I feel Monumental right now because we're in the throws of it let's remember wide receiver six is spot now special teams we just saw Brennan rice make a great play on that kickoff coverage that is you always hear it vaugh slippery brings up third and two R Clark here we've seen the Chargers now on some third down opportunities defensively but third and short in particular for a Jesse M defense on situational football can lend a large large way it's a third and a long one nice patient move the cut to free himself and earn the first down he's 5' five and a good seal block there but he set the block up by dipping inside said he's 5' five and the truth shall set you free young man out booys as Royce Freeman lowers the shoulder and gets near the 45 Shane Lee there in his way to the Cowboys did get the ball to start this game so the Chargers will have it to start the second half already with on the first two games they had 12 17 already in the first half of game number three back to the air a little too tall for du [Applause] B and why did you look at me when you said tall this is a blown pass by Lance because vaugh is wide open gu I'm talking about catch wide receiver for a back coming out of the back field nearly impossible and instead of the chains moving Lance in the pocket evades one lance looking to evade two Lance this is what he did it North Dakota State so wellers there two miss two more Miss first down Cowboys and now back to the air swing it to the outside not a whole all right Tony Jefferson's been all over the field even playing on special teams in this ball game Jesse min's defense well especially in that second you want to see guys who can play both corner and safety JT Woods who's played Safety exclusively cornerback through training camp in the preseason as Freeman looking for some space can't find much and picks up three opportunity and Jesse Minter has been very upfront and honest about who he's looking to make this team he said I want the best football players he's accepted the challenge of trying to make a position change this deep already now not only into his football career but playing Lance on Third and five pumps Lance fake shimmy first down as Lee couldn't get to him before the first down run and this is a double shimmy you he gets out of the pocket here here's the first one Kane Lee physically 64 226 the speed is obvious the as well the interception to Jefferson as we approach the two-minute warning hand off B see if the Cowboys will like to run one more play here I think because they only have two timeouts remaining they will hurry to get this play off before the two-minute warning vaugh makes a cut vaugh Jefferson be running between the tackles with patience face mask Defense number 37 the penal half the distance to the go and then the extra tally after the fact on this infraction yeah and no question he grabbed the face mask trying to make a tackle on a short running back sometimes that happens two minutes to play Lee overtime we've got highlights coming up at the half of this game plus Mike Tomlin down now back to AR down he goes this defense and Collins with a big play tremendous tackle here too strong strong right arm and brings him down and again Lance almost fumbled that ball because of the pressure from Chargers take their first time out this is what he wants to see can he get the football back can he let his offense get back out there and see what they can do in about second and goal looking in zone Lance puts it o touchdown Cowboys Bo it looked like swo watch 18 with a push right there gets away with it then gets the ball for the score that right hand pushes the officials missing a very blatant pass interference gets the knee down it'll bring a seven-point game as glance put it in the perfect spot and that's have their first touchdown of the day

get to the end zone Easton stick just three of Patterson the back stick to the air UNC courts over the middle incomplete the timing was off on that pass was on target but Johnson Working receiver on those hook routes going to try to put the ball between the numbers stick deep drop stick lets it fly flobed an incomplete dropped it and he dropped a perfect pass from stick that one was right to the body of number 39 five straight incompletions for East stick since the touchdown pass to deserves a spot and now with no no time coming off this clock minute 36 Dallas could actually get the ball back filling the pressure steps up out of the pocket stick on the Run incomplete knocked away from Jaylen Gil Israel mu makes the play well again watch the ball position here tells the defensive back to come inside and knock the ball away from Gil so worst case scenario for the Chargers barely Billy John back to return this from Scott and he'll go way back towards the 10 with some room to [Applause] work powering youth generating access and creating opportunities and underresourced neighborhoods so today's dreams can become tomorrow impact another test for this charger defense now after the impressive Drive last time out from Lance and Company Lance dump it down Freeman sandwiched to the 35 signals to his wide receivers minutes to play Lance back to in the spot ball comes down to the Chargers have it and the official threw the bean bag which means it's a fumble and yes right on it with Jean Baptist and they take it right back by Los Angeles first down it's a heck of a throw by Lance over double hit oh the great play with with the left hand by Tony Jefferson again watch him reach around the back before the knee was down charger ball near Midfield and a chance to get more points first half and Jefferson already with the interception has now claimed both turnovers fif stick unloads down the sideline single coverage but rice couldn't get to it Bell came over to help from the [Applause] so take the handoff stick will go up the gut good gain for Easton stick and a first down 38 seconds the 30 second timeout that was a quarterback draw the whole way you can see took one step back after the fitting the ball and [Music] getting a huge first down and getting Cameron using Ryan fcking the special team coordinator told us there's no real range for him just let him go out there and let him tick it cuz more often than not he's 38 seconds with two with one timeout remaining now for the Chargers first down stick and Willie Harvey had maybe two hands on this [Applause] football and we almost had our third turnover in a span of about what a minute and a half eight straight incompletions now for stick after the long touchdown of foko gave the Chargers a 14 another deep ball and he overthrows Cornelius Johnson third and 10 he did a good job of little coverage here but by pumping to the middle of the field you can see the safety take the bait got the safety but the throw erand Dicker starting to warm up here was like that 40 would give you a 58 yd attempt again stick on target it's Johnson who holds on for the first down fin out Los [Music] Angeles that's a good route too makes contact with the defend picks up the first down Julius wood did exactly that laid the wood on Johnson 21 seconds is a great opportunity for E sck to Showcase what he can do in a two-minute drill type of situation so 21 just spike the ball there and save that last time out just for the uh chance for Dicker without having to hurry out stick going deep sideline oh rice went up for it B stick is giving him a chance with great coverage boy no control as the ball comes loose so now down to 15 seconds they got to rush the field goal team out there for Dicker and this is about a 53 yd attempt from this spot right here go to the outside to clock with 11 and a smart throw good throw stopping the clock saving time for the [Applause] kicker how much closer can they get him or can they take the end zone shot from just inside third and four back to the outside and far too tall for Johnson so seven but a nice job by stick to get the team back in field goal range get them a little bit closer as well with that conversion season [Music] run from 48 he's got the hold Dicker the kick it is perfect 20- 10 with three seconds left here I love on Long kicks how it looks like the ball is going to be wide right and he's got the that he's given us that treat he's got that buttery draw on It come on smooth of the Chargers and hard to choose anything but this first offensive play from scrimmage today Darius Davis Davis giving the uh folks here in the Metroplex a little reminder of how good he is 4 7 Seconds 48 yd Dicker field goal and now we'll see again just how valuable dick essentially end this first half this is the difference again one you can't do onside kicks until the fourth quarter so there's no element into this Landing Zone which Dicker has done every time so far today although this one looks like he'll just boom to the back of the end zone and accept the Touchback with the last preseason game happening now that you don't want to have injuries on it kick return safe play kick it out of refreshments that's what I'm thinking about oh there's plenty of plenty of Refreshments come on has to be feeling refreshed I mean he was having such a great week that he took his wife out on a date night said it was great and we will go into the break 20 to 10 charger Advantage after two all right Chargers up 10 20 to 10 despite this ter executing better and uh good first half for come out here in the second half and crank it back up how about the defense yeah we let a we let a a oneman route get by us on a in a cloud coverage it should never happen but uh yeah we're playing now I think great second half thank you coach all right thanks well if you watched the TV show Friday Hearts clear Minds Full Hearts can't lose I think he just said clear Minds clear Soul second half meanwhile just a couple seconds into the second half was number one one priority today was no injuries he wanted to see Health he wanted to see happy on we won't show you the replay as it was a nasty roll of the ankle but mlen will go off think frustration for a young man who's just trying to battle to make the team 6'8 355 and you just see this way too often with the offensive lineman where they're doing their job and then out of and that unfortunately is the result sometimes worst part of the game it does lead to was the odd man out in the first half we'll see if he gets a little bit extra time here in the second half play action to him stick out of bounds yeah great jot by Gil at the end of this to drag his feet ball well thrown by stick it goes limp and drags him both 18yd pickup on this deliver was a clean first half no turnovers from this Chargers offense after a couple of costley and doson fighting towards Midfield looks like they'll mark them down right there Damen Wilson drags him backwards so for doson part of that running back battle along with frell who won't play today Patterson and out of Texas a&n doson from Northern Colorado press last preseason trying to do the same here's forward to the 45 oh really a nice catch by by Dodson the ball thrown low he had to stop on his [Music] route and then keeps his balance fcks up extra yards those are a little make yards sets up third down and four and movement up Willis Patrick looked like he was the first to jump 5yd penalty third down in this second half something that we see sometimes in preseason cig rolad was the referee in the first to try out a different role yeah referees need reps too doson stays this could be a free play stick on the hard count and the completion over the middle to Cornelius Johnson who is 92 penalty blind first down alardin muhamed Le there's the jump should have been3 it should have been foko either way first down stick quick drop knocked away batted twice and picked off for wood and the Cowboys have a little momentum back early in the [Applause] third and ball was tipped before that and that's why it went over the head of the rece and it's into this third the sav decision is sponsored by your Southern California Volkswagen dealers hurry in during the B Joe hortiz made some Savvy decisions and bringing in these former Ravens Edwards and dobins in the backfield Boseman up front to start Ortiz will join us now as the Cowboys start this drive from the 30 and not much for him to work with there on the early run let's go right into the Ravens thing because we just saw all the guys you brought in but how is it having that familiarity from Baltimore bringing guys in Hayden and Bradley we drafted in Baltimore had them uh for an extended period of time just all all four of those guys bring the right mentality it's exciting and and also the Michigan connection is strong as well oh very very strong um I mean obviously the player in Michigan when when Jim was there and and certainly before that uh at Stanford so there's a connection all around yeah I know you want to pound the ball and all razzled Dazzle and uh it's exciting and then hitting simy down the sideline that was great great throw great catch finished by simy so over for Michigan by the way did you get an honorary degree at of Van Arbor is that part of the deal when you join on with this organization yeah you know it'd be nice as from our second half referee offense number 34 10 y penalty from the just take us through this first year so far you come in with Jim harbar you have talked about the Batman and Robin the Andy du that you've given us but at the same time what's the relationship been like and the familiarity even working with John for so many years yeah it's been a partnership being able to to watch him Coach and develop into a coach from a player um certainly he was our quarterback my first year in Baltimore but just getting to know him on 16 years knowing Jack and Jackie has PID their parents um and then just building a relationship with Jim so it's been great kind of coming partnership what we want to do as as an organization and and you just feel you know build and attack it and you mentioned Jack Jim and so ago his knowledge and is so valuable oh how will you use him or will you use Insight that you can gain from him you know I learned a long time ago as a 22y old when I first started in Baltimore just listen you know just listen new Ted Mar BR they were the triumphant there when I started and uh Steve Botti you know and and then John Brian plenty of it I I've been I've been a part of a lot of his talks and uh really enjoy and and there's a lot of recruiting now in the NFL and building the end absolutely you know the it's amazing the facility is just you walk in that facility and it takes your breath away really and it's and uh you know we the guys love it you know I like you guys mentioned I brought a number of guys over from Baltimore and we had a nice this place is amazing so really is sp that look it's not common necessarily to come into a job step into a job and we've seen what he's capable of we saw him practice this week just how special he is but the understanding of protecting that guy and going out and getting joe Al absolutely I mean you got to protect your quarterback you're looking for you know most of the successful quarterbacks you know they have the protect yes we came in with the idea keep so far Chargers defense continues to play some strong football against Trey Lance in this cowbo legal contact to go against Jefferson who has mentioned has had a very strong day so far because you have this blend of Youth and experience it feels like on both sides of the ball and you mentioned some of the guys coming from Baltimore but even then the Michigan side which you that secondary that we feel like we so much kind of shifting from chess M what was the thought process of building this team want to inject youth into an organization into a team um and certainly use the draft to do that that's the life bug but bringing in vets is Paramount to building a successful team I believe so uh getting guys like Tony and who's been it and done it multiple places been highly excited for this season excited for you in this journey is an NFL GM and uh we can't wait for opening day in a couple of weeks here it's coming up y appreciate it man good luck thank so 20 to 10 at stays as we tick down about the M Le On The Run he puts it right on the money for his intended target running left as most of difficult pass for a quarterback to throw but he gets his shoulders squared to the line of scrimmage doesn't have to worry about anything but making the G grab and getting out of bounds so Bernett picks up 20 just outside of a goal to go forward to the six so another for Jesse mters defense can they come up big once again we've already seen it in this game on the opening drive holding saw it even late in the first half after the quick three and out to get the turnover on the fumble can they do it once again Zone intercepted it's Jefferson again he cannot be stopped Jeff [Applause] this is just remark not sure that this pass ever had a chance of being completed but it's intercepted by Tony it's the wild wild AFC West and there's a new sheriff in town get your tickets today to see coach Jim Harbaugh visit chargers.com ticks to secure your seats today before they're gone Jim Harbaugh has to love what he's seen gotten some efficient running action but now the throw oh stick that was real close down at the one down yeah the Cowboys coming with a the linebackers coming from both sides right up the middle and stick has no chance so the extra lineman again it's going to be mcfaden and Lane 19 spiller's the running back and he's got the G Spiller nowhere to go Stonewall [Music] and the important thing is he got out of probably never a good idea third and 18 stick to throw stick going to go to Zack hin yeah better pass protection that time for stick on all those yards but the breathing room is so important especially when you got a great punter as the Chargers do at JK to return and he is dynamic with the ball in his hands we've even seen it today see if Scott can get a good one off vaugh up to grabb it on the fair catch at the [Music] 432 he with interceptions on either side to start this third quarter but now Tre Lance will hope to lead another drive that ends in Freeman oh great B there tackle made by Savon Jackson TCH the speed old dogs Freeman to the ground real quickness at from that defensive end spot Lance on second and 11 feeling the pressure over the middle and the catch is made right at Midfield right down yeah with the Chargers blitzing glance that time he he read it quickly knew where already making decisions a bit more difficult in this secondary not seeing us rolls Lance throws and completes first down oh knocked out are they going to call that an incomplete pass yes they are he got to put his helmet right on the ball what the reaction by Woods it's at the cornerback spot key there that it was ruled incomplete sets up fourth and three but it looks like that and they will run it quick screen and cam Johnson has got the first [Applause] [Music] down really well-designed play by the Cowboys getting a couple of blockers out in front of the reer the first down lands with another conversion there well it's an option play and his option behind and then he turns on the Jets but really good blocking wide receivers and out in front their span [Applause] [Music] for Lance was waiting for the big play has to end the first half and now it's a four-point game and Dallas is going to go for two to try to bring final preseason game there's no holding back we know it's incomplete too far out in front of Cam Johnson and it's cam har the rookie out a notre Damon pass is going to be an impossible reception because of the switch there good defense and red zone defense has been outstanding in the preseason you SE a couple of interceptions play by cam Hart gets it a four game one of the reasons for short yardage and goal line was so great defensively the last couple years that man right there is Ben Herbert he was the head strength and conditioning coach now the lhr Michigan's turnaround as a program the last couple years Jim harau said he remembers the first time he met him in the hallway outside his office the first Hench Soul this is a guy who played defensive line at Wisconsin from 98 to 2001 served as the strength coach at Arkansas and Wisconsin under Brett F the great pass rushers in the NFL with detroy Herbert for his development as a player and as a man our recruit to a second round pick this year and somebody who could be nicknamed the mutant Harbaugh said when we asked him about Ben without this guy right here on my staff High Praise tremendous resume Terry asked him what do you like to do for fun like tell Chargers fans what do you like to do for fun he goes cleaning and organizing everything hand off doson breaks away first down and more out of bounds number one getting to the corner and then finishing the play a lot of running backs will just step out of bounds [Applause] satisfy delivers a little extra to Josh Butler we've seen the historical significance of the running back spot for the Chargers Austin Eckler a couple years back it was the final preseason game for stick in the pocket and stick finally goes down down finally gets him down low again they're just blitzing stick almost every time here coming on the blitz you have hot receivers that should take care of it sight adjustment a slant route makes it second and [Applause] 18 stick keeps Back Field it's Harris again col on tomorrow he has taken a beating I'm able to get around empty set on thir don't it's going to be Patterson and not a whole lot of space to work with as he ushered out of bounds it'll be fourth [Music] du vaugh back to receive this oh no Flags All Right Touch back it is with 9 seconds left in the third but they were go for the three repat their fourth Super Bowl in the last six seasons and Patrick Mahomes trying to hard to argue that he hasn't already done that amen could be the final play Lance touchdown run Conor and a flag yeah they were off sides five y penalty still first down back him up just a little bit here and out of Tennessee so first and 15 instead Snoop Connor Del laay hand off Connor first forward and gets back to the 19 yd line which is where this time 98° in sunny outside inside AT&T Stadium it's a second and 11 to start the fourth quarter for in this final preseason tuneup before Dallas begins their season in Cleveland following brutal loss at home in the playoffs Lance unloads he's got another completion nice throw and the Cowboys knowing that they're down by four six things like this they went for it on fourth down once tonight they went for a two-point conversion be making sure his team is well prepared for the regular season finds another Target the slant a little bit high but brought in nicely by Bernett Crush stood strong and really threw a nice pass 10 more getting gerro Clark in the game on the defensive front six play of this drive opening drive of the fourth quarter Lance escapes Lance couple of pumps oh he runs into a wall Rises throughout this preseason in training camp yeah he tried uh about six pump fakes on this play and there's the wall Morris Brash who was somewhat quiet last week has been so excited to see him in action here he is looking like he's going to Blitz from The Edge stood up there lands with time on the run is Cam Johnson but a flag and because he ran out of the pocket it's going to be holding against they see this so often that's poor I feel bad for these offense lineman because expecting the quarterback to be in the pocket about seven yds leaves the pocket there's the grab right in front of that Lance is left the pocket Mike McCarthy hard to believe it's been five years already in Dallas wining the Super Bowl he goes right back to the well cam Johnson with a first down catch and run and it looks like there's something stuck Jeremiah John Baptist and cam Johnson are we get the firefighters from yesterday the helmet's off we got we got extra helmets coming on did you really locked helmets uh face masks with a Defender so you were face to face no side to side but then we then we uh figured it out and started laughing so hard I mean this this did feel somewhat amicable after that first what's going on yeah s got a headlock on me but an impressive catch to set up third down and four regardless blows up the Deep ball looking End Zone incomplete Bernett the intended target henkins there killer throw Under Pressure watch where this ball lands right on the hands the fingertips that's an opportunity dropped so fourth down and four play clock under five oh he's got it and then some enough space for Fant to work with for the first down well remember fant's a big guy 250 he's got pretty good speed for a guy that size too there's the first down [Applause] barely that was closer than maybe had looked on the field either way it wasn't leaving his way through and keeping the legs turning to the [Music] five this has been Tre Lance's best Drive of the game rookie out of Missouri Nathaniel p in at running back 10th play of the drive is a second down and [Applause] one Hinton and quarterman combine on the tackle yeah they may have got the first down they may have entered the red denying their opponent touchdowns we saw Dean Leonard with an interception in a goal line situ in this second half and off goes to Conor not a whole lot of room to work maybe picks up three block continues to take here Chargers looking for their first preseason Victory after not scoring 12 points through two had 17 first half points here today on two long touchdowns one on the ground second and eight Lance through his progressions Lance will tuck and run lance look to bounce it get a little greedy there if he goes north and south right about there he picks up n the Cowboys and he knew it too didn't he right away we've already seen two fourth down conversions by Dallas today not going to get there short is all over that [Applause] one recogniz this play from his inside linebacker spot and he just races right towards the receiver hey they signed him that's the definition of immediate impact and now Brandon Aubrey will try to make this the Chargers will retain a one-point lead should he make this 34 yd attempt which for Aubrey is and his offense get points Chargers still with a one-point cushion approaching the Midway point of the four here in Arlington field goal makes it a one-point game and now a Touchback will start this drive at the 30 for the Chargers tonight's play SE a doubt that Tony Jefferson was going to be our player of the game so far today well his experience reading the routes just watch the hands reaching out making a similar catch in the end zone huge impact on the field he made a great special teams play as well now the Chargers will look to drain as much of this clock as they can Nick underneath it goes to Luke Benson for a nice catch and run makes it second and short so we talked about the Chiefs opponent for the Chargers Antonio Pierce Landing the head coaching job fulltime went five and four at the interim at the end of last season and bring season with the Raiders is soou then don't play them again until the very last game of the season January 5th week 18 and both teams will be totally different when they come around again I can gu to the air they're letting stick dictate this game brandan rice finally with a catch out of bounds just shy Midfield really from the Raiders what about the Denver Broncos well Shawn pyton turns to his first round pick Bo Nicks who was a dis 12th overall selection in the draft we'll see what the from where's he from he's from that school where he started off he's 26 years old I think he's playing more games college football is it just me or does he look both like he's super young but he's and he certainly has a lot of experience on the football field definitely on the college side and he was outstanding the last two years and a real good fit for Shawn pton Uber efficient he was a leader in the country and his team did he because he was Uber efficient ah take that one I hate when I have to repeat them it happens too often doesn't it I said it happens too often Pi at this [Applause] [Music] offense stick good the question is whether or not it was a pass or a fumble Chargers get it back regardless with L bringing five right in the face of stick definitely a forward on the field an incomplete pass regardless but clearly moving forward so a lot of time will only need a field goal to take the advantage as jayen CER is back to return long drives time consuming and the number of plays on each drive all that does is work the Chargers here against against the Cowboys on defense or on [Music] offense Scot's kick it's proper inside the 10 he'll make the fair catch around the eight it's where the Dallas the time of possession nearly 36 minutes but this is the worst starting Fiel position for either team today in the 21st total POS hand off Pete that hole closed up quickly gains a yard flag is down secondary this might be holding against the [Applause] Chargers automatic first down [Music] [Applause] hon like they did not set themselves properly there with a new line of scrimmage the gang is running back to get a secondary chain no comment please reset the game play CL you know they just had to untangle that you know what that's they just put him away in a cabinet until the next year Mar gr and they're all tangled when you got them out cuz you don't think you're using them for a while properly and here we are play action pass Lance diales it up deep ball down the side coverage by Matt henkins [Music] yeah and Lance saw this great coverage by henkins BS safely for the Cowboys but perfect coverage and good read by henkins end with the Chargers defense coming up with a stop in the final preseason game that's a good hard run by Nathaniel Pete coming out of his safety spot there so we've seen him play a lot of corner tonight that time as a safety for Jesse Min and four type of scenarios where Lance has escaped the pocket extended the play and gotten it with his legs pressure comes Lance feels it oh what a play traymon moris hard Jim Harbaugh from Jesse Minter from his teammates was how impressive traymon moris Brash had been we saw what we've seen through training camp it's been the pass rush it's been his ability on the edges but that a let us and the self tip going to go up by eight then there was a personal foul call against the Dall with the half the distance to the goal they were inside the one after another penalty and then Patterson just got stuffed trying to get into the did not go for the quarterback Snake put the big guys in gave the ball to Patterson and as you can see point game it's a seven-point game although it did feel like going for two is the right decision you're already up by seven for 14 to play so Jim Harbaugh rolling the dice there does not go in his favor [Music] and was a tremendous effort by T where they' really love them de one of the men back deep to return along with [Music] now it'll be Davis back along with Von B Raymond Morris Brash down to extend a lead yeah he's in a tough spot with the guys that are H here and then being a special teams Maven you got to love this part of it shows no mercy the versatility unfold dis he can be and we'll see what the strategy looks like down the stretch in this fourth quarter he will just send it all the way through play Drive of the day is sponsored by Hyundai getaway with a great deal only at the Hyundai getaway Sales Event visit Hyundai that was a Fourplay Drive the two completions going to foko that last one 78 yards took just under 2 minutes the Chargers offense Darius Davis on the Jet Sweep going 70 pitch it Snoop Conor let's go down to [Applause] Jamie and that's for sure uh try I was trying to get some words in but he was so tired I mean the boy had just made a hell of a play so I had just told him like get on the oygen tank and when you working with the All Pro Naro Bowman throughout this preseason what's it like working with him and what have you learned I mean to the linebacker room and all of the all of the things he has given to the game he's starting to give it back to us so it's been a blessing that's the best part about it you've also you I think the Highlight has been just being on the field again uh being able to make some plays get some contact OTAs is long part is about coming out healthy and getting ready for Raiders week one appreciate you thank you thank you all right guys all right Jamie appreciate it span third round pick last year he had just 16 tackles as a rookie is expected to take that step forward but you look at what just mentioned the competition for a guy like traymon Morris Brash with Bosa Mack dpri and tuy pelou but even on the interior of the Henley expected to take that next step Nick Neeman had some really bright spots especially early in preseason through training camp Junior to get healthier Troy die had a huge opening preseason game against Seattle so there's a lot of talent in that room with what he's learned already three a year and and some change now you've got to make decisions yeah on all these players goes along third down and four for Lance pressure comes Lance gets away once Lance off his back foot f for says give me [Applause] that just ripped it out of the hands of Cam defensive all these places how about our secondary henkins with an outstanding play rips statement catch been right spot through the entirety of training camp and into preseason but this is an exclamation point in the preseason finale well Jim Harbaugh and Jesse Minter have been public about their feelings on how underrated this so they take their time out here with 214 to play let's look at their schedule for the Chargers the first eight game opportunity to get off to a fairly solid start for a Chargers team both leading into that by but certainly coming out fell and you look at where you oh we can take this one oh we can't beat them and it's it's crazy because so many times you can beat anybody if you play clean football which the Chargers have done in the preseason spun down in the back field I was talking about what a clean preseason and then they have that fight I think maybe that was on purpose back half of the schedule for the Chargers is really where I think a lot of people are looking at maybe some of the the biggest challenges Falcons Chiefs bucks those are tough games in succession but then those last couple Denver division game mentioned the book end to start and finish the season no real oh he gets Wallops there was no room to run and he gets leveled back at the 45 Advantage at sofa and the excitement that surrounds this team right now and the promise of the he going to be a one and two preseason but we've got a lot of stars that haven't played in the preseason that uh starting with our quarterback just an exciting winning football team Herbert along with the lik so Bosa coming in he is going to be a huge piece defensively Joshua Palmer we know what he's capable of the T running back line most of which we've seen But Bradley Boseman coming in at Center a huge piece third down and 12 a big potential conversion for elius Johnson the rookie was the intended target and it brings us to the two-minute warning here on the fourth Dallas will have an opport Scott gets a clean one away fair catch called for and made by vau interceptions for Lance here today in the Chargers defense some of them have been spectacular efforts especially the last two Morris dripping the ball away from cam Johnson but Lance oozing some confidence here we've seen some impressive plays he does have takeaways that was a real takeaway caught and that one finally ruled down as rev span for the rookie go hurry here with only the one timeout to work with out of bounds to cam Johnson Robert Kennedy forces him to the sideline bounds you want to roll your coverage to the wide receiver so that they can't get that easy pitch and [Applause] catch second and five Lance [Applause] UNC that's a situation where span Ford have to make time off the clock he's a big Target 67 270 that one goes for 16 Poise knocked at the line and that one span for couldn't get to used to put highlight level film together yeah fresh troops substituted for the [Music] Chargers who can step up and make a game-winning play here from the secondary on the slant another completion as this one goes to racy mcmah not enough for a [Applause] first third and four Lance surveys delivers over the middle so the timeout taken with 27 seconds left in this battle of North Dakota State quarterback's Easton stick looking for his first win of this year's preas that one was a 78 yd touchdown he can do it with his legs as well yeah we've seen that throughout his put up in the air twice and picked off that's just bad luck that was the only real mistake from s completion percentage it's been a fairly clean game with 187 yards in the touchdown Lance no timeouts to work with a comple set and the clock is stopped with [Applause] [Music] seven well it should be a sideline and was tackled in bounds that cost Michael carthy's Group by Lance at first looked like he was going to run then it almost looked like he was going to throw it away quite keep the footing and they try to roll and Jefferson with a heads up play play clock down to two and this is whistle timeout Los Angeles that is the second charge time out of a half 30 second timeout the charges obviously it doesn't count towards your record but situational football and allowing for guys opportunity to play AT&T Stadium big environment for Jesse minter's defense especially for some of these younger guys that are trying to make the 53 situation where Lance has to throw the ball into the end zone he talked about Fant being 67 and a wide receiver 7 seconds left TNT Stadium [Applause] thrown but I think JT Woods was in position on the inside to take away a slant route there pass
