Los Angeles Chargers 16 vs 22 San Francisco 49ers summary: stats and highlights | NFL 10

The San Francisco 49ers moved above .500 with a crucial win over a banged up Los Angeles Chargers team on Sunday Night. The defense pitched a shutout in the second half to lead the Niners to the 22-16 primetime victory.

San Francisco came in fresh

The Niners came into Sunday night’s match up rested and refreshed after a bye last week. The Chargers did not. Los Angeles came into Week 10 with a battered roster missing their two top receivers, and a handful of other players on the offensive and defensive side of the ball.

For the first time since the Christian McCaffery trade we saw a healthy San Fran team with Deebo Samuel and McCaffery fully featured in Kyle Shanahan’s offense, but late in the game it was Elijah Mitchell to took the wheel and drove the Niners to victory.

The Chargers got off to a promising start despite their lack of weapons on the offensive end. Justin Herbert led LA to an opening drive touchdown with a 33 yard TD pass to Deandre Carter for what turned out to be the only touchdown of the Chargers night.

Chargers couldn't capitalize on mistakes

San Francisco got all the way down to the two yard line on their first possession, but had to settle for a field goal, and after that the offense went silent until just before halftime.

One Niner possession ended when Brandon Aiyuk fumbled in SF territory, but the Chargers could only get three points after the field goal. On the next San Francisco drive the Chargers got a piece of the punt and again had fantastic field position, but again settled for a Cameron Dicker field goal.

Kyle Shanahan’s team finally punched the ball in the end zone with just under two minutes in the half when Jimmy Garoppolo had a QB sneak to close the gap to 13-7, but the Chargers added to that lead with a field goal as the half expired.

Defense takes command in second half

Those would be the last points the Chargers scored. The Niners forced three straight punts to start the the second half while San Fran kicked a field goal to open the third quarter and then scored a touchdown to take their first lead of the game.

It was the running game took control in the second half and it was on the shoulders of Elijah Mitchell. Mitchell had 89 yards on 18 carries, and was a big part of the of the two scoring drives to give the home side the lead. The TD drive was set up by a 24 yard completion on 3rd and 10 to get the Niners down to the two yard line. From there, McCaffery punched it in and San Francisco didn’t look back.

It was another virtuoso performance from Jimmy Garoppolo as a game manager. He held on to the ball, he didn't have to air it out, and most importantly he led the Niners on scoring drive deep in the game.

He had a rock solid 240 yards on 19/28 passing while Justin Herbert threw for 196 yards, only 35 of those yards came in the second half.

Division matchups coming for SF and LA

They would add a third Robbie Gould field goal to extend the lead to 6 points with under a minute to go and the defense ended the game in fashion as they so often do. Talanoa Hufanga made the game winning pick after Herbert’s arm was hit on the pass attempt.

The Niners didn’t win pretty, but they are above .500 with the same record as the Chargers. Los Angeles will take on Kansas City next Sunday night at Sofi while the Niners host Arizona.

Tonight's odds

According to Bet365.com the Niners are 8 point favorites against the banged up Chargers, with the Over/Under set at 45.5.

I'm take the Chargers tonight. I think a lot of people are a little caught up on the Niners and we forget that the Chargers are a five win team. I'm going with LA plus the points tonight.

Deebo's back on the block

Deebo Samuel hasn’t played since the Chiefs game in Week 7, and returns to action tonight fully fit and ready to be the difference maker he has yet to be this year after signing a monster contract in the offseason. Through seven weeks, the Niners most dynamic player had just 387 yards and two TDs receiving and 138 yards with a touchdown on the ground.

The Jimmy G legacy continues

Whenever Jimmy G is under center for the Niners, they have a different look about them. They don’t put up a ton of points, and their stats aren’t jaw dropping but the Niners know how to win the number 10 as their gun slinger. He has thrown for 1,691 yards and 11 TD with 4 INTs in seven games this season. With McCaffery and Samuel on the field at the same time, this offensive just might turn into one of the most dangerous in the league.

Christian already feeling right at home

It’s a trade that makes you think the Niners are all in this year in their quest for a Super Bowl. The Niners brought in one of the most dynamic dual threat running backs in Christian McCaffery and he wasted no time incorporating into the San Fran offense. He had three touchdowns last week and is will be reuniting with another one of the most explosive players in the NFL.

LA make the short trip north

Austin Ekeler led the league with 19 TDs last year, and he already has 10 TDs this year. He comes into tonight knowing that he will be going up against one of the top rushing defenses in the NFL. If he can go for triple digits on the ground, the Chargers will have a great chance to win in hostile territory tonight.

LA last week

The Chargers got a tough win after a long road trip to the East Coast and came out of Atlanta with a win after one of the strangest plays you’ll ever see. LA went down 10 early in the game and battled back in the second half courtesy of two Austin Ekeler touchdowns set up a dramatic finish. The Chargers were marching down the field with the game tied at 17-17 when Ekeler fumbled the ball deep in ATL territory and the ball scooped by Taquon Graham who gave it right back to LA. After the stroke of good fortune, Cameron Dicker hit the 37 yard field goal as the time ran out.

San Fran coming off a bye

The Niners used last week to get rested and recovered after an eventful first eight weeks of the season. They saw their future face of the franchise suffer a season ending ankle injury in Week 2, and Jimmy Garoppolo came in under center after an offseason of uncertainty about his future. The offense hasn’t looked great under Garoppolo, but Chirstian McCaffery showed exactly what he is capable of in the last game against the Rams when he threw, ran and passed for a TD.
