Los Angeles Chargers beat New England Patriots 40-7 in front of a barren crowd at Gillette Stadium .

Chargers win clinched a playoff spot for the Chargers and gave them double-digit wins for the third time since 2010 .

Quarterback Drake Maye left the game on the Patriots ' third offensive play after a helmet hit hit.

Patriots coach Jerod Mayo said in a radio interview that running back overhamond Stevenson fumbled for the game.

Strange tore his patella tendon last December and didn't return to the game-day roster until last week at Buffalo as a backup option along the offensive line and on the field-goal protection unit. So this was his most extended action since the injury, and he showed he could be a viable option at center in the future. -- Mike Reiss Next game: vs. Bills ( TBD , Sunday ).
