How the Chargers got comfortable closing out games

COSTA MESA, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Chargers have finally solved the riddle of how to win close games -- an issue that had plagued the team over the past few years.

According to ESPN Stats & Information, the Chargers are 11-3 since Week 11 of last season -- only the Los Angeles Rams and the New England Patriots have a better record in the NFL during that span.

And they are a perfect 11-0 when they have had a lead in the fourth quarter of those games.

"This team has a lot of grit," coach Anthony Lynn said.
