The Dallas Cowboys and Los Angeles Chargers have different reasons to be happy they get extra time to prepare for each other.
The Chargers are coming off their bye week and will have some key starters back. Quarterback Justin Herbert is dealing with a fractured middle finger on his left non-throwing hand that is not expected to keep him from playing.
“When we lost to Arizona, I wish we could have played Thursday. Wish we could have played Monday, the next day,” defensive coordinator Dan Quinn said. “In this case, I think it’s probably better to have one more . I think each time is a little different. I’ll be honest. I’m glad it isn’t a bye. And we get ready to go.”Los Angeles is expected to have running back Austin Ekeler and safety Derwin James back for its first prime-time game of the season.
The trade won't be a quick fix to a struggling pass defense. Los Angeles is allowing a league-high 299.8 yards per game via the air. It has given up 19 completions of 20 yards or more, fifth-most in the league.Dallas receiver CeeDee Lamb was visibly frustrated on the sideline as the blowout got worse and the offense continued going nowhere against the 49ers.
“I had a great visit with CeeDee,” McCarthy said. “He’s an impact player, he should feel that way. I’m fully aware of it, and it was frustrating. It was frustrating not doing your part on offense. I felt that. I felt frustration as a play-caller.”Herbert has won his last three starts on Monday nights, including both last year.
