The Los Angeles Chargers find themselves at a low point in NFL power rankings following their November 1, 2026 loss to the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium. The defeat leaves the team with nowhere to go but up in weekly assessments.
Offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel and quarterback Justin Herbert were seen conferring during the second quarter of the Inglewood matchup, highlighting the offensive adjustments needed moving forward. Herbert, wearing number 10, remains the focal point of the Chargers' attack as they seek to climb the rankings.
SB Nation's Michael Peterson notes the silver lining: with rankings at a nadir, the only direction for the Chargers is upward as they prepare for upcoming opponents.
