The Chargers boosted their chances of making the playoffs to 95% after their win over the Chiefs on Sunday.
While it seems like a sure thing, Los Angeles can make it official and clinch their second consecutive postseason spot this upcoming weekend.
L.A. can secure at least a Wild Card berth if the following happens:
- The Chargers win their game against the Cowboys, and the Texans lose or tie against the Raiders.
- The Chargers win or tie against the Cowboys, and the Colts lose their game against the 49ers.
- The Chargers win against the Cowboys, and the Colts tie against the 49ers.
- The Chargers tie against the Cowboys, the Texans lose against the Raiders, and the Colts tie against the 49ers.
At 10-4, the Bolts currently hold the fifth seed. And if the season ended today, they would face the fourth-seeded Steelers, who lead the AFC North.
The Chargers travel to Dallas to face the Cowboys on Sunday, December 21, at 10:00 am PT.
