The game wasn't over just yet, though. Jason Sanders missed the extra point for Miami, which meant Justin Herbert and the Chargers' offense only needed a field goal to win. 

But Herbert was called for an intentional grounding that set the Chargers back. Then he was sacked, setting up a third and 29.

Herbert found Mike Williams for 17 yards to get some yards back, but he was sacked on fourth down to end the game. 

It was a back-and-forth bout throughout. Tagovailoa registered 536 total yards for Miami.

Tagovailoa completed 28 of 45 pass attempts for 466 yards, three touchdowns and an interception. 

Hill caught 11 passes on 15 targets for 215 yards and two touchdowns. Those yards tied his second-most in a single game. He had 215 with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2018.
