Chargers vs. Eagles: How to watch, start time and

Can the Chargers beat Philadelphia with one hand tied behind their back?

It could come to that, as quarterback Justin Herbert is taking part in with one good hand, having suffered a fracture to his non-throwing hand in a Week 13 victory over Las Vegas. Herbert underwent surgery Monday to address the issue and was limited in practice last week.

This game could mark the return of Chargers running back Omarion Hampton, the team’s first-round draft pick last spring who is coming off injured reserve after recuperating from a left ankle fracture.

The Eagles, meanwhile, are trying to get back to the same kind of dominating run game they got last season from Saquon Barkley, one that propelled them to a Super Bowl victory. Philadelphia has dropped two games in a row, losing to Dallas and Chicago.

How the Eagles can win: Relocate their running game with Barkley, which has been inconsistent all season behind an injury-riddled offensive line. With Landon Dickerson, Cam Jurgens and Lane Johnson all in various stages of recovery, clean up protection issues. Mix it up with the passing attack. Jalen Hurts has relied closely on hitches while shying away from crossing patterns. Sustain some drives to give the protection a relaxation. Get the ball in the arms of DeVonta Smith, who has been particularly productive.

How the Chargers can win: Put the clamps on Philadelphia’s operating recreation, as other groups have achieved, and make the Eagles more one-dimensional. Force Hurts to win it with his arm. Turn in a strong efficiency from the offensive line, particularly with Herbert nursing a damaged left hand. Establish a ground recreation even if Herbert isn’t taking snaps from under heart. Assemble some long drives that keep the Eagles protection on the sphere as long as potential. That unit had an 87-snap workload last week and was actually fatigued.
