Chargers vs. Texans 2022 Week 4: By The Numbers
Sep 28, 2022 - 5:26 PM
On to the Texans, as Bill Belichick would probably put it if he were the one coaching the Chargers after last Sunday’s lopsided loss.
The Texans are one of two teams without a win in 2022. They’re currently 0-2-1 with losses to the Bears and Broncos and a tie with the Colts. If there ever was a “get-right” game for the Chargers, especially their ground game, this may be it.
As always, this is just a simple “screenshot” of both teams and how they’re faring on both offense and defense thus far in 2022.
