The Los Angeles Chargers have one of the brighter young teams in the NFL. They showed a lot of their potential last season, but some defensive shortcomings left them missing the playoffs. Nevertheless, offseason changes have been made and additions like Khalil Mack should help yield better results.

Chargers 2022 Season Prediction

The Chargers are certainly a playoff-quality team. Now that the team has more experience under its belt and the defense is looking much stronger, the Chargers will be a threat against any team they face. The only question is whether or not the Chargers can achieve postseason results.

I could certainly see the Chargers making the playoffs and, assuming the team is as good on the field as it is on paper, just hitting the over on their projected win total.
