description

Late in the year in which he'd set the NFL record for most receiving yards per game across a single season, star Chargers receiver Wes Chandler got wide open downfield on this trick play, and his running back hit him with a deep ball down the sideline. Chandler hauled it in and took it the distance for a 66-yard score. Chandler caught 10 balls for an absurd 260 yards in this one, scoring twice, as the Chargers beat the Bengals, 50-34, on Dec. 20, 1982.
