Eagles got on the scoreboard first with a 5 yard run, extra point attempt blocked. The Chargers answer late in the second quarter with a touchdown of their own to make the score 6-6. The extra point attempt failed. In the third quarter, the Chargers offense put up another score bringing the score to 12-6, another failed extra point. The Chargers had a goal line stand late in the fourth quarter perserving their 12-6 edge. After only gaining 1 yard at the 2 yard line, on 4th down the Chargers took a safety making the score 12-8. On the insuing kick off Chargers kicked it deep and made the Eagles have to go 70 yards for a touchdown.
