There have been only four NFL teams to record winless seasons during the Super Bowl era starting in 1966. The 2017 Cleveland Browns (0-16) were the last team to accomplish that feat, joining the 2008 Detroit Lions (0-16), the 1982 Baltimore Colts (0-8, shortened season due to strike), and the 1976 Tampa Bay Buccaneers (0-14).

It has been a while since Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert engineered a game winning drive in a football game. In fact, the last time was in college with Oregon, when Herbert scored on a thrilling 30-yard fourth quarter touchdown run to give the Oregon Ducks a 28-27 win over the Wisconsin Badgers in the 2020 Rose Bowl, Herbert's last collegiate football game, in a game played on New Year's Day. Herbert had previously come close with the Chargers, but a missed field goal against...

Hall of Fame baseball pitcher Nolan Ryan played his high school baseball at Alvin High School in Alvin, Texas. He is the most famous athlete from Alvin High School, but he is no longer alone.

Olszewski, in his second season with the Patriots, returned three punts for 145 yards, including a 70-yard punt return for a touchdown, and...
The Los Angeles Rams offense under fifth-year quarterback Jared Goff failed to show up for second time in the last four games, losing to a team it had no business losing to.

The Rams defense and special teams deserved better. And the Rams fans deserved better. Yet, falling out of first place in the NFC West, the Rams still...

Whether it is a special teams' failures or defensive breakdowns or offensive errors, the Chargers cannot keep from tripping over themselves near the finish line. The Chargers hit another low point in losing 27-17 to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday. The Chargers are a passing team riding the golden arm of a rookie sensation. They lack a consistent rushing...

The late great UCLA Hall of Fame basketball coach, John Wooden, once said, "Losing is only temporary and not all encompassing. You must simply study it, learn from it, and try hard not to lose the same way again. Then you must have the self-control to forget about it." That quote from Wooden could easily apply to the Los Angeles Chargers, who continue to make losing close games a habit. Against the Las Vegas Raiders last Sunday, the Chargers lost another heartbreaker when quarterback Justin...
The bye Week was a charm for the Los Angeles Rams. One week ago they were suffering after having lost to a Miami Dolphins team that had no business being in the game, yet managed to beat the Rams, 28-17, while generating only 145 total yards of offense. Los Angeles (5-3) was two games down in the lost column to the NFC West-leading Seattle Seahawks (6-1) and one game behind the second-place Arizona Cardinals (5-2).

When the Chargers came to Los Angeles from San Diego in 2016, they adopted the marketing slogan, "Fight for LA." In 2020, that marketing slogan should be changed to, "Come see Justin."
