No Chargers +4 bettor can say a bad word about Justin Herbert for the rest of their life after what he just did for you.

Justin Herbert really risked his entire NFL future so your Chargers +3.5 bet could hit on the backdoor cover

The Chargers absolutely let one slip away tonight against the Chiefs.
Didn’t even make Patrick Mahomes beat them. They just beat themselves. The refs didn’t help.

I hope the Chargers have a new doctor because Herbert going to need that same shot Tyrod got

Just combine the Falcons and Chargers into one ultra-cursed franchise, the new logo can be a lightning bolt hitting a bird in flight https://t.co/QkCwdJSfNV

The Chargers remain the only team in the league that Mahomes has played more than once & not ever blown out.
Hang the banner!

The #Chargers just couldn't pull it together as the injuries, mistakes, and bad luck mounted. Ended up being too much for the team to overcome.
Not worried about the team long-term if they can get their stars back. Really worried about Linsley.

To the Boltfam.. ignore the trolling. The Chargers made a statement tonight. A statement that there is no team in the NFL that could beat us besides the refs. A statement that our team are full of dawgs. Proud to be a Charger fan rn. keep yalls head raised high ⚡️

Chargers were the better team tonight. Let's not get it twisted

The chargers were the better team tonight .. just the unfortunate events of called back INT, conservative play calls and missing depth in the OL screwed us over! Herbert dedication to continue playing while in pain shows his strength and love for the game ! That’s my QB

chargers had a total of 5 loss starters and an injured QB and only loss by 3. respectfully chiefs fans better celebrate this one quietly

Chargers are generational at finding a way to lose

More than half the Chiefs points came as a direct result of blown calls and the Chargers still only lost by 3 on the road missing two offensive linemen and Keenan Allen.

Losing a game where you were the clear better team is so embarrassing, but that’s just Chargers football

This game sums up my general thoughts on the Chargers. They always leave you wanting more. Like you can see all the parts are there. But they just don’t make it happen enough.
