CLEVELAND — Rookie Cade York missed a 54-yard field goal with 11 seconds left as Los Angeles held on for a 30-28 victory over the Cleveland Browns after Chargers coach Brandon Staley inexplicably gambled on a fourth down. York's kick sailed right and allowed the Chargers to escape. With his team at its own 46 and leading by two, Staley called a timeout and instead of punting had Justin Herbert attempt a short pass on fourth-and-1 that fell incomplete. The Browns got the ball back and drove to the Chargers 35, but York couldn't convert. Austin Ekeler rushed for a career-high 173 yards and scored twice for Los Angeles.
