The Los Angeles Chargers' 2024 season has concluded following a disappointing 32-12 defeat against the Houston Texans. Despite a promising start, where the Chargers managed to advance the ball effectively, they settled for field goals instead of capitalizing on scoring opportunities. The Chargers quickly established a lead at 6-0 after a fumble recovery by Alohi Gilman, but offensive struggles persisted.

Justin Herbert's performance was particularly troubling; he threw four interceptions, including one that was returned for a touchdown. Rookie Ladd McConkey emerged as a standout, recording nine receptions for 197 yards and a touchdown. An 86-yard touchdown from McConkey briefly ignited hope for a comeback, but a blocked extra point, which was returned for two points by the Texans, sealed the Chargers' fate, ending Jim Harbaugh's first year on a disheartening note.
