The Chargers began with the team trying to improve on their 4–12 record in 1991. Bobby Ross began his first season as the team's head coach, after having spent the previous five years as a college coach at Georgia Tech. The team made the playoffs for the first time in ten years. The Chargers would lose their first four games of the season, but would rally to an 11–5 finish to the season, clinching the AFC West title, and becoming the first (and to this day, only) NFL team to start 0–4 and still make the playoffs.

gollark: AMD had a terrible architecture for ages and didn't fix it until Zen.
gollark: Intel was sandbagging a lot due to low competition and also got apified by process issues.

gollark: A fun bit is that tasks and the privilege level are entirely orthogonal, and the security level of a thing is basically just what environment and upvalues it has.
