The Chargers are arguably the second-best team in the AFC.
Their 7-2 record makes that statement accurate. As of right now, only the Kansas City Chiefs (9-1) have a better record in the AFC.
But it still feels like the Chargers, who have won six in row, are being overlooked. It can’t be about the numbers, because they rank towards the top in almost every category.
The Chargers have scored 20 or more points in each of their last six games. They currently rank 10th in the league in average points per game.
They also rank eighth in total offense.
