1970 San Diego Chargers season


The San Diego Chargers season was the franchise's first season in the National Football League , and its 11th overall.
San Diego's 5-6-3 record was the first of seven consecutive losing seasons for the franchise. The 1970 Chargers are the last NFL team to record three ties in a single season, a record which will likely stand, as the NFL adopted overtime for regular season games in 1974.
