Justin Herbert is going to the NFL playoffs. Considering the stakes, Herbert produced his best performance of the season during the Los Angeles Chargers 40-7 win over the New England Patriots on Saturday.

The Los Angeles Chargers are back in the playoffs. But the message is clear: They have their eyes on achieving much more.

Former Georgia Bulldogs wide receiver Ladd McConkey is the Los Angeles Chargers' all-time leading rookie receiver in receptions and receiving yards. McConkey has a team-high 77 receptions for 1,054 receiving yards and seven touchdowns.

The Chargers clinched a playoff berth in Harbaugh’s first season — a year after they won only five games. They did it in as convincing a fashion as possible, dominating New England for four quarters. Herbert led the way through the air with McConkey serving as his top target.

Saturday's eventful tripleheader saw one team clinch a playoff berth, another nearly do the same, and a third fumble a golden opportunity.
