The Los Angeles Chargers are 0-5, and according to a preview on Chargers.com published Oct. 14, 2026, that is not the start anyone expected. The piece answers a fan question in the site's weekly Mailbag about whether team morale has been lost.
Chargers.com acknowledges that players may be frustrated or disappointed by the record. It also says they have not given up, pointing to the effort shown in recent games, even without wins.
The publisher cites the road game in Seattle as an example. The Chargers trailed 27-6 late in the third quarter, a spot where, in the publisher's words, plenty of teams would have packed it in. Instead, the Bolts nearly came back against the defending Super Bowl champions.
Chargers.com says the team showed similar grit against Denver last week. It describes a rally from a seven-point halftime deficit, with what it calls perhaps the team's best quarter of the season coming in the third frame.
The fan who wrote in says the Chargers play the Chiefs this weekend and would love to beat Kansas City on the road. The source text does not include a game result or any other details about that matchup, so this story reflects only what Chargers.com reported as of Oct. 14.
