Oddsmakers favor the fifth-seeded Chargers by three points over the fourth-seeded Texans
Before I delve into the historical context regarding Saturday’s Wild Card game between the Chargers and Texans in Houston, acknowledgment is due to my fellow San Diegans who have their own interpretation of the team’s past as it relates to its present.
To many of the San Diegans who swore off the franchise, the team’s San Diego history doesn’t apply to the Los Angeles Chargers. Two different cities, two different histories, they say. For the San Diego Chargers and their fans, the worst moments often came when the team was favored to win a playoff game at home.
Years later, in a stunning acknowledgment of the franchise’s fragile psyche, Chargers defensive coordinator Ron Rivera credited Ryan for getting into the Chargers’ heads with his comments a few days before game. Ryan said that while the Chargers may be the better team, the Jets needed only to be better in that particular game.
