Week 8 has started with a blowout.
The Los Angeles Chargers crushed the Minnesota Vikings 37-10 at home in a game where Justin Herbert threw three touchdowns to continue adding to his collection of solid individual outings.
Minnesota once again called upon Carson Wentz to try to keep the team above .500, but the veteran quarterback offered very little in an easy game for the LA defense.
The result moved Los Angeles to 5-3 following some disappointing losses, and the return of left tackle Joe Alt provided a boost to the running game that has recently lacked without Omarion Hampton and Najee Harris.
On the other hand, the Vikings dropped to 3-4 in a tough NFC North division that isn't leaving much margin for error. Even when J.J. McCarthy returns, there aren't any guarantees he's good
