Dicker the kicker gives Chargers win over Falcons after strange play

This is beyond random.

Cameron Dicker kicked a field goal to give the Los Angeles Chargers a 20-17 victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday as time expired.

Dicker was making his debut for the Bolts.

He had played one game earlier this season as a Philadelphia Eagles. Sure enough, Dicker the Kicker, famously named by FOX Sports’ Gus Johnson, booted a field goal to win that game against Arizona.

He was Special Teams Player of the Week for the Birds after that game.

The Chargers had the chance to win after a strange, strange play.
