The Chargers’ 37-10 win at SoFi Stadium on October 23, 2025 was the most dominant performance Los Angeles put together all season to that point — a night defined by Herbert’s efficiency, Vidal’s career-high rushing effort, and a defense that held an NFL offense to fewer than 170 yards. For the Vikings, the defeat sent them to 3-4 and effectively ended Carson Wentz’s season; the quarterback was placed on injured reserve days later with a shoulder dislocation, torn labrum, and fractured socket he had been playing through since a Week 5 game in London.
