PLAYER OF THE GAME
Chargers safety Tony Jefferson couldn't have done much more to terrorize the Cowboys. The veteran, who came out of retirement this offseason, played an incredible 90-snap workload and tallied two interceptions, a forced fumble and a sack, among several other impressive figures.
Jefferson surrendered two catches for just seven yards and forced an incompletion in coverage, in addition to his pair of picks.
