Chargers schedule 2025: Los Angeles win-loss record predictions

Hollywood loves a sequel nowadays.
However, Jim Harbaugh will be hoping his Los Angeles Chargers don't flop in Year 2 like many of the recent movies. The coach's squad will need some new ideas and a fresh approach after a playoff beatdown left a sour taste at the end of a solid season.
Luckily for them, there's still plenty of time before the premiere and countless award shows weigh in with their take.
Believe it or not, we're already entering Justin Herbert's sixth season. It wasn't long ago that he was the new kid on the block, but now the seasoned veteran has to take the next step in finding some playoff success.
The Chargers went ahead and retooled their roster last season with the eye towards making a leap in 2025. Despite that retool, Los Angeles went 11-6 after Harbaugh made his triumphant return to the NFL sidelines.
They'll want to build on that and have a season that extends a little longer this time around. Can the Chargers challenge for the AFC West crown in what promises to be a tough division?

The Chargers find themselves in an unforgiving division that managed to get even better this offseason.
The Chiefs might be wounded after a Super Bowl blowout loss, but they are still the team to beat. The Broncos are entering Bo Nix's second season and continue to add to an already elite defense. The Raiders brought in a new regime and proceeded to add Geno Smith along with Ashton Jeanty in the draft, which should represent a major improvement for that offense.
While the rosters steal headlines, there is also the coaching side of things. Harbaugh has to match up against Andy Reid, Sean Payton and Pete Carroll – who all routinely get the most out of their teams – for six of the the 17 games.
With no easy wins in the against their direct competitors looming, the Chargers have their work cut out for them, even if they are better this season.
The Chargers check in with the 15th-easiest schedule in 2025, per Sharp Football Analysis.
It's easy to feel optimistic about Los Angeles, who should still make the playoffs. They have an improved offensive line, addressed their need at receiver and revamped their running back room.
Expect them to put together another solid season, even in a division that will leave its teams battered and bruised by playoff time.
