The Bolts got back in the win column with a 27-24 road victory over the Eagles this past Sunday which went a long way in keeping them right up there with the rest of the top teams in the AFC West.
Somehow, some way, the entirety of the AFC West has five wins. Seriously. Both the Chargers and Raiders are 5-3 while the Chiefs and Broncos are both 5-4. Can someone say, “wide open?”
The latest win also did wonders in getting the Chargers back in the good graces of the media’s power rankings. As you’ll see below, a lot of publications agreed on where the Bolts fall in this week’s rankings.
