The 2022 season is the Los Angeles Chargers' 53rd in the National Football League (NFL), their 63rd overall, their seventh in the Greater Los Angeles Area, their third playing their home games at SoFi Stadium and their second under head coach Brandon Staley. They will attempt to improve on their 9–8 record from last year, make the playoffs for the first time since 2018, and end their 12-year AFC West title drought.
