@ Baltimore RavensMonday, November 16 · 8:15 PM ETTV: ESPNChargers After Week 9: Season Report
The Los Angeles Chargers lost 44-22 at home to the Houston Texans in Week 9. The defeat extended the Chargers' losing streak to 8 games. Houston entered the game at 3-5, and its total topped the 30 points the Seahawks scored against them in Week 4.
Daiyan Henley led the defense in the loss with 16 tackles and 1 interception. On offense, Quentin Johnston caught just 1 pass, but he turned it into 58 receiving yards and a touchdown. Those tackles lifted Henley's season total to 61, the most of any Chargers player.
At 0-8, the Chargers sit last in the AFC West behind the Broncos at 7-2, the Chiefs at 6-2 and the Raiders at 4-5. They rank 16th in the AFC and hold no playoff seed. Recent form offers no relief, since losses to the Seahawks, Broncos, Chiefs and Rams preceded this one.
Time of possession is the one strength, ranked 14th of 32 at 30.2, but 2.4 turnovers per game rank 32nd of 32. Last season the Chargers finished 11-6 and reached the playoffs, so the drop is stark. Justin Herbert leads the offense with 1,398 passing yards; Khalil Mack leads the defense with 3.0 sacks.
The Ravens come next on the road at 4-5, followed by home games against the Jets at 2-7 and the Patriots at 5-3. Only the Patriots have a winning record, so the stretch looks manageable. The Chargers are still in the playoff race, though catching the division leaders is a long climb with 9 games left.
