The 2024 season was the Los Angeles Chargers' 55th in the National Football League (NFL), their 65th overall, their ninth in the Greater Los Angeles Area, their fifth playing their home games at SoFi Stadium, and their first under head coach Jim Harbaugh [1] and new general manager Joe Hortiz. The Chargers improved on their 5–12 record from 2023 following a Week 10 victory against the Tennessee Titans. With a win over the New England Patriots in Week 17, the Chargers clinched a wild card spot, returning to the playoffs after a one-year absence, but lost to the Texans by a score of 12–32 in the Wild Card round.

    The 1992 Kansas City Chiefs season was the franchise's 23rd season in the National Football League and the 33rd overall. The Chiefs matched their 10–6 record from 1991, but were shut out by the San Diego Chargers 17–0 in the wild-card round.

    The 1991 Kansas City Chiefs season was the franchise's 22nd season in the National Football League and 32nd overall. They failed to improve on their 11–5 record from 1990 and finished with a 10–6 record. Compared to the Chiefs' 1990 campaign, Steve DeBerg’s consistency had dropped. The running game made up for lost time as Christian Okoye ran for 1,031 yards for the season, Barry Word was productive, and rookie Harvey Williams was outstanding in limited playing time. The Chiefs defeated their division rival, the Los Angeles Raiders in the Wild Card round, resulting in the franchise's first playoff victory since Super Bowl IV in 1970. The next week, the Chiefs lost to the Buffalo Bills in the divisional playoffs.

    The 1985 Kansas City Chiefs season was the franchise's 16th season in the National Football League and the 26th overall.

With a 4–12 record, the Raiders secured their eleventh consecutive non-winning season, and missed the playoffs for an eleventh consecutive season. The Raiders entered the season with a new quarterback in Terrelle Pryor. Pryor started off the season in impressive fashion, with the team almost pulling off the upset in Week 1 against the Indianapolis Colts, and defeating the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 2. The team and Pryor eventually cooled down, resulting in Pryor being benched for Matt McGloin in the game against the Houston Texans. Before this game, history was made in the game against the Philadelphia Eagles when Eagles quarterback Nick Foles threw seven touchdown passes, the most passing touchdowns the Raiders had ever allowed in its history. Prior to the season starting, the Raiders brought back defensive back Charles Woodson, who spent the last 7 years with the Green Bay Packers.

    The 2024 season was the Seattle Seahawks' 49th in the National Football League (NFL), their 15th under general manager John Schneider and their first under head coach Mike Macdonald. The team improved their win records from the previous two seasons; however, the Seahawks missed the playoffs in consecutive seasons for the first time since 2008–2009. The Seahawks finished tied with the Los Angeles Rams for the NFC West division title, but the Rams won the division based on the strength of victory tiebreaker. This was also the second straight season the Seahawks missed a playoff spot by the strength of victory tiebreaker. They were the first team since the 2020 Miami Dolphins to miss the playoffs despite having double-digit wins. This was their first season since 2009 that Pete Carroll was not the head coach of the team, as he was reassigned to an advisor role in the offseason.
