The Chargers beat the Cowboys on Sunday, moving them to 11-6. However, they did not clinch a playoff berth yet. To secure it, they need the Colts to lose to the 49ers on Monday Night Football to officially lock in a postseason spot this week.
After Sunday, the Bolts remain the AFC’s No. 5 seed with two games remaining in the regular season. If they win both remaining games against the Texans and Broncos, Los Angeles will win the AFC West division title over Denver. This comes after the Broncos lost to the Jaguars.
