These passed without major incident, and the game went into overtime. San Diego won the coin toss and elected to receive the kickoff - they picked up two first downs to reach the Los Angeles 42 yard line, but Fouts was sacked and they were forced to punt. The Rams then drove from their own 14 to the Charger 6, converting a pair of third downs along the way. From there, Dempsey's 22-yard field goal won the game.
