Justin Herbert And the Chargers Still Face Tall Task Near The End of The Regular Season

Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert has been a man on a mission since he got surgery on his left hand on December 1st. 

In the four games since, he has led the Chargers to a four-game win streak, 11 wins in total and an outside chance of finishing with the AFC #1 seed. 

Steep challenges still line the pathway for Herbert and co., as they play their second to last regular season game against the Houston Texans and their league-leading #1 overall defense. 

Scoring points on Houston's defense will be a tall task, but Herbert has shown up for his team in big moments throughout the whole season. 

If they are able to topple the Texans, a date for the AFC West lead (and maybe more) awaits them in week 18 vs. the Denver Broncos (the #1 seed).
