Twitter Shreds Chargers After Brutal Ending To Week 9 Loss Vs. Raiders

The Chargers did Charger things again.

Los Angeles looked to have won its Week 9 contest against the Las Vegas Raiders at the buzzer as quarterback Justin Herbert threw a goal-line fade to Donald Parham Jr. on the final play of the game. Upon review, though, Parham juggled the catch, and thus Herbert's pass was deemed incomplete.

The Raiders ultimately pulled out a 31-26 victory. (You can catch the final play below.)

SO CLOSE.

Twitter, of course, did its usual thing following the verdict, trashing the Chargers who seemed to blow another winnable game. While it wasn't exactly the same script Sunday, the Chargers have lost four game this season in which they held leads by 16 or more points.

Here's what some on Twitter had to say:

Chargers took their time on offense, threw checkdown after checkdown over the middle of the field to their running backs, finally completed one deep pass at the last possible moment, and then threw two goal-line fades with six seconds left. This is an institutional problem.

I’ve never seen a team get its heart ripped out on a weekly basis like the Chargers

I actually can’t believe how often this happens to the Chargers.

The Chargers again... the most almost winningest team in football. They will almost beat the piss out of you. They will almost score more points than you and will almost score on the last play of the game...
