Players make mistakes in games. You try to limit your own, and maximize those of your opponent. The pick-6 may have been fortuitous, but hardly a miracle. The Chargers were playing hurry-up offense and most were exhausted. I don't know how tired Herbert was, but the receiver he threw the ball to was wanting out before the play. That does not make a miracle. They were trying to make us tired and paid the price by being too tired themselves.
That is a mistake. Not a miracle, but a mistake. One of the ways you win is by making fewer mistakes and the Chargers made a big one.
