Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (10) passes to running back Gus Edwards (10) during the second quarter of the NFL Week 11 game between the Los Angeles Chargers and the Cincinnati Bengals at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California on Sunday 4). November 17, 2024. The Chargers led 24-6 at halftime.
With JK Dobbins (knee) out Sunday, the Chargers trio of Gus Edwards, Hassan Haskins and Kimani Vidal will carry the load on the floor. Those three have a combined average of 2.9 yards per carry on 94 attempts this season. Justin Herbert can also get involved – he's second on the team with 211 yards rushing this year.
When Dobbins left the game at halftime last week, the Chargers passed the ball just three times. That's not a sustainable plan for a 60-minute contest, and Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman have never shown any signs of being comfortable with letting Herbert throw the ball 40 times a game, let alone 50.
