The Los Angeles Chargers will open the 2024 NFL season against the Las Vegas Raiders in exactly one week. Predictions are all over the board as to how this team will do this coming season.
Some feel that Jim Harbaugh will turn things around in quick fashion while others feel it could take a couple of years for him to get back up to speed with the NFL. One thing is for sure, Chargers fans will almost unanimously take Harbaugh over Brandon Staley .
So here we will take a look at how the upcoming season will go. How many games will the Chargers win? Do they win enough to make the playoffs? And which players will take home team awards?

Will the Chargers make the playoffs?
According to this prediction, the Chargers close the season on a five-game winning streak to finish 10-7 but get left out of the playoffs on tiebreakers. You can predict the entire regular season over on playoffpredictiors.com and doing that, I had three teams from the AFC East get in with the Buffalo Bills edging the Chargers out for the last spot.
Though that would lead to some disappointment, it would still be clear that the team is heading in the right direction, and in year two in 2025, Harbaugh would have a team no one would be eager to play.
