Ladd McConkey scored an 86-yard TD, but Houston’s punt return prevented an extra point for two


Just when it looked like it was over for the Chargers, they got a little life.

But then a key special teams play gave the Texans’ quarterback momentum.

Quarterback Justin Herbert connected with Ladd McConkey up the middle on third-and-26 for 86 yards.

But Cameron Decker’s extra point was blocked and returned by cornerback D’Angelo Ross for a defensive two-point conversion.

That left the score at 25-12, giving the Texans a two-run lead.

Herbert was sacked on the first two plays of Los Angeles’ possession after a field goal gave Houston a 23-6 lead. But then he found Herbert McConkey up the middle and fouled some tacklers en route to an 86-yard score. He gained 62 yards after the catch.

But on the extra point, Decker’s kick was blocked and tossed into the air. But instead of catching the ball and going down to kill the play, Decker hit it — and kept it a live ball. Ross took advantage of the mistake, picked up the loose ball and went for two key points.
