United States –
The Bolts are on their way to the postseason.
Due to their victory over the Colts on Monday night, the Chargers qualified for the AFC playoffs.
Due to the defeats of the Jets, Patriots, and Raiders, the Chargers—who will play in the Wild Card game—also guaranteed their spot in Week 16.
The Bolts have now made the playoffs under the direction of Chargers head coach Brandon Staley. Under Chargers General Manager Tom Telesco, the Bolts will participate in the playoffs for the third time.
First since 2018, the Bolts are headed to the postseason.
On that team’s current roster, only Keenan Allen, Joey Bosa, Michael Davis, Austin Ekeler, Derwin James, Jr., and Mike Williams are still active.

The Chargers are 9-6 heading into Week 17 and might still secure one of the three Wild Card spots in the Nos. 5, 6, or 7. They have won three straight games.
The Bolts still have two games left in the regular season: a home game against the Rams in Week 17 and the season finale in Denver.
But the Chargers now realise that Week 18 is not the conclusion of their season.
Football playoffs are approaching.
