The Los Angeles Chargers will be playing in their first playoff game in the Justin Herbert era on Saturday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Ahead of the matchup, they kept all the receipts of critics they have had this year in an epic hype video for the postseason.
The theme of the video released by the Chargers’ social media team featured clips of a number of prominent TV personalities saying a ton of negative things about the team.

It was certainly an awesome way of putting their critics on blast, with a number of prominent names losing faith in them at various points of the season.
“I feel like they’re done,” said Dan Orlovsky of ESPN.
“The Chargers are 1-2 and they look just terrible,” said ESPN’s Mike Greenberg.
“From the Chargers’ standpoint, this is bad news right now,” said Damon Amendolara of CBS Sports Radio.
“I have no faith in them,” said Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk.
There were plenty of others that they put on blast for their takes on the team. The NFL world certainly enjoyed this hype video and applauded their creativity in putting everyone on blast.
“Got to love a salty social media team. This is well done,” tweeted Warren Sharp of SportsGrid.

While the Chargers have been doubted throughout the season by many, it appears that they’re now getting their respect in the betting market. They enter the matchup as 1.5-point favorites despite the game being played in Jacksonville this weekend.
