San Diego Chargers: Week 12 NFL Power Rankings (#17)
Last week: 17 (+0)
Record: 4-6
I think it’s time for the Chargers to go on their annual late season run.

This week, they play Baltimore, who is overrated and generally struggles on the...
San Diego Chargers: Week 2 NFL Power Rankings (#8)
The Chargers barely beat an overrated Raiders team that was shooting themselves in the foot all night. Yep, it’s the same old early season Chargers. That game reminds me of their close early season wins against bad teams last year, Miami, Denver, Minnesota, and Kansas City, all by 10 or fewer points. Playing a real team next week in the Titans, they might not find themselves so...

There are countless differences between every NFL team and their approach to the season. From play calling philosophies to dress codes, every team does things differently.
