The Chargers are now 11-4 and are on the cusp of clinching a playoff spot for the second year in a row under Jim Harbaugh.
The Bolts picked up a 34-17 win over the Cowboys on Sunday, which was the first step to the Chargers potentially clinching in Week 16.
The Bolts are currently the No. 5 seed in the AFC playoff picture and hold the first Wild Card spot, but are also alive for the AFC West behind the 12-3 Broncos.
The Chargers would win the AFC West with wins in Week 17 (at home vs. Houston) and Week 18 (at Denver).
Here's a look at how the Chargers can clinch a playoff spot in Week 16 after Sunday's win.
Scenario No. 1
The Colts lose to the 49ers.
Scenario No. 2
The Colts tie with the 49ers.
The Colts host the 49ers on Monday Night Football.
