"Los Angeles arrives in the playoffs on a two-game losing streak with losses to two potential playoff opponents: the Denver Broncos in Week 17 and the Houston Texans in Week 18. Prior to those two losses, the Chargers had been riding a wave of seven wins over eight games. If L.A. can get back to their winning ways from early December, the West Coast club could disrupt the AFC postseason scene."

The Patriots won their final three games of the 2025 regular season and held a 13-1 record over its last 14 contests with the only loss coming in Week 3 to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
