INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Justin Herbert threw for 227 yards and three touchdowns, and the Los Angeles Chargers defeated the Minnesota Vikings 37-10 on Thursday night, ending a skid of three losses in four games that knocked them from atop the AFC West.

The Chargers (5-3) won for the first time since Week 6 at Miami, bouncing back four days after a resounding 38-24 defeat to the AFC South-leading Indianapolis Colts at SoFi Stadium.

Keenan Allen had four catches for 44 yards and joined Hall of Famer Antonio Gates as the only players in Chargers history with 11,000 receiving yards.

The Vikings (3-4) lost consecutive games for the first time this season, with both coming in a five-day span. They managed just 12 first downs, were 3 of 11 on third down and had the ball for just 21 minutes.
