The 2024 season was the first year with Jim Harbaugh as head coach of the Chargers. He took over a Los Angeles squad that finished 5-12 in 2023. Harbaugh helped get the Chargers back on track in 2024 with an 11-6 finish. They were 4-2 in divisional games and both losses were to Kansas City.
An 11-6 record was good enough for the #5 seed in the AFC playoffs. Los Angeles was on the road in the wildcard round to face the #4 Houston Texans. Chargers’ QB Justin Herbert had his worst game all season and threw four interceptions. One of them was returned for a touchdown by the defense. Herbert threw just three interceptions during the regular season. With a 32-12 loss in the wildcard round, the Chargers’ season is over. After the game, veteran LB Khalil said he’s unsure about his future in the NFL. Mack will contemplate retirement this offseason.
