Los Angeles Chargers
The Chargers (7-3) kickoff in the early window against the Jaguars (5-4) for the first time since the 2022 playoffs where they…well…we all know what happened on that fateful day.
With almost an entirely new roster since that season, the Chargers are motivated to win this game, of course, but there’s still nine players who remember what that loss felt like. Those nine will have likely told the story to their newer teammates at some point this week. Jim Harbaugh was not the head coach of the Chargers that season, but he and Herbert have likely spoken at length about...

Defensive back Tony Jefferson, outside linebacker Kyle Kennard, offensive tackle Bobby Hart, offensive lineman Foster Sarell, wide receiver KeAndre Lambert-Smith, tight end Will Dissly and defensive tackle Naquan Jones have been listed as inactive against...

Welcome to game day, everyone!
The 7-3 Chargers are in Jacksonville today to face the 5-4 Jaguars. The Bolts have not beaten Jacksonville since 2020 and have lost their last two matchups. The most recent being the 27-0 blown lead in the 2022 playoffs and the other being a 38-10 whooping at home in 2021.
Today is a day to exorcise some demons. It’s not just beating a team that has gotten the best of LA in recent years, it’s also about overcoming one of the worst postseason performances this century for the franchise. Only nine players remain from that...

This week we are joined by Gus Logue of our Jaguars sister site, Big Cat Country, to help us preview this week’s matchup between two AFC teams who are in the thick of contending for a postseason appearance. The Bolts are 7-3 after beating the Steelers in Week 10 and the Jaguars dropped to 5-4 after collapsing against the Texans.
The vibes are likely quite different on either side coming into this matchup, but don’t mistake that for a lack of motivation for these teams. The Chargers will be spurred on by the idea of winning four consecutive games heading...

The Chargers travel to Jacksonville this week to face the 5-4 Jaguars who are coming off a debilitating loss to the Texans where the latter came back from 26-10 in the fourth quarter.
Los Angeles, on the other hand, is riding the high of downing the Steelers 25-10 on Sunday Night Football.
A win this week would put the Bolts at five games above .500 heading into the bye which is really the best case scenario following some tough games dropped earlier in the year.
There’s a number of storylines in this week’s matchup, let’s go ahead and jump into...

The Chargers banked one signing a handful of veteran journeyman along the defensive interior this offseason in hopes of getting the most out of them under defensive coordinator Jesse Minter. While there was some shaky run defense earlier in the year, the group has settled a bit. Still, the Chargers may want to look at further upgrading the position this offseason and that may include using one of their first few picks in next year’s draft.
In a new 2026 mock draft from Pro Football Focus, NFL analyst Trevor Sikkema have the Chargers doing just that by selecting Ohio State...

As prep for Week 11 begins, the Chargers had the most amount of veterans take rest days to begin the week of practice. Normally reserved for the likes of Keenan Allen and Khalil Mack, those two players were joined by defensive tackle Teair Tart and center Bradley Bozeman. Fortunately, the veteran’s with the day off were the only DNP players on the report.
After a brief scare and an early exit for tight end Oronde Gadsden against the Steelers, he logged a full practice on Wednesday despite a knee injury.

The Jaguars have been as much of an up-and-down team as anyone this year. They boast a win over the Kansas City Chiefs, but they’re coming off a loss to the Texans in which they owned a multi-touchdown lead late in the game. They also just lost two-way player Travis Hunter to a season-ending injury.
Still, with a 5-4 record, they’ll be motivated to stay afloat in the quest for a playoff spot, and maybe even an AFC South crown if the Colts find a way to stumble too much.
The Chargers, on the other hand, are coming off a...
