Have the Los Angeles Chargers made it to the playoffs in the 2022-23 NFL season?
The Los Angeles Chargers trounced the Indianapolis Colts 20-3 in Week 16 and confirmed that they will play in the postseason this campaign. With their 9-6 record after 15 games, the Rams have booked their place in the playoffs for the first time since 2018.
The Chargers went on a three-game win streak, which was their second of the 2022 NFL season in order to get to the playoffs. It will also be Los Angeles’ first postseason appearance under second-year head coach Brandon Staley and with star quarterback Justin Herbert, who was drafted in 2020.

Brandon Staley’s side is currently 2nd in the AFC West and has managed to at least get a wild-card entry into the playoffs. The Kansas City Chiefs have already managed to win the division. Hence, the Chargers will remain in 2nd place ahead of the Las Vegas Raiders, who are 3rd in the division with a 6-9 record.

The Los Angeles outfit is familiar with win-or-go-home scenarios despite not having been in the postseason after notching consecutive winning seasons. The Chargers were only a win away from making the playoffs in 2021 entering Week 18 last season but lost to the rival Raiders in an overtime thriller.
