Consider this your one-stop shop on Mondays for all things Chargers.
With the Bolts playing last night, here is a Tuesday edition.
Here are five things to know about the Bolts ahead of Week 8:
1. What happened in Week 7?
The Bolts came up just short in a 17-15 road loss in Arizona on Monday Night Football.
The Chargers offense put up a season-high 395 yards but couldn't find the end zone as Cameron Dicker kicked five field goals, including a 59-yarder that tied a Chargers single-game record.
Defensively, the Bolts stout run defense had an off night as Arizona gained 181 yards on the ground.

2. What is the Chargers record?
Monday night's loss dropped the Chargers to 3-3 on the season as they missed a chance to go two games above .500. The Bolts are the only 3-3 team in the AFC.
The Bolts also were knocked out of an early playoff spot as they are now the No. 8 seed in the AFC.
Indianapolis and Denver, both of whom are 4-3, occupy the sixth and seventh seeds, respectively, in the standings.
3. Who stood out on Monday night?
Justin Herbert put together his best game of the season by far.
Herbert compiled a Pro Football Focus offensive grade of 89.7, which ranked second among all quarterbacks in Week 7.
Herbert threw for a season-high 349 yards while completing 27 of 39 passes.
Defensively, Khalil Mack kept up his monster season with a defensive grade of 92.1. That mark tied for second among all edge rushers in Week 7.
Mack was everywhere against the Cardinals against the run and the pass, but the veteran did shoulder the blame for poor discipline on Kyler Murray's 44-yard touchdown run.
4. What's an eye-popping stat?
Herbert had plenty of time to throw on Monday night.
According to NFL Pro, the quarterback averaged 3.08 seconds to throw against the Cardinals, his longest time to throw in a game this season.
Herbert completed 22 of his 31 attempts over 2.5 seconds for 302 yards, the second-most yards on such passes by a quarterback this season. (Atlanta's Kirk Cousins had 323 such yards in Week 5).
Herbert completed five of his seven pass attempts under 2.5 seconds for 47 yards, his fewest yards on quick passes this season.
5. What does Week 8 look like for the Bolts?
The Chargers are now on a short week but won't have to travel with a home game against the Saints on tap.
New Orleans is 2-5 and has lost five straight games after getting off to a 2-0 start.
The Bolts haven't faced the Saints since 2020 and are looking to snap a four-game losing streak to New Orleans.
This will be New Orleans' first trip to SoFi Stadium to play the Chargers in the regular season.
