Five teams entered Week 5 with an 0-4 record, no two more surprising than the Texans and the Chargers. Both playoff staples of the past few years, they were trying to take the first step in joining the 1992 Chargers as the only teams to start 0-4 and make the postseason.

\n\n

One succeeded. The Texans thumped the inept Titans 26-3. The other failed. The Chargers fell 23-17 to the Broncos in an eyesore of a game. Neither Bo Nix nor Justin Herbert reached 125 yards passing. The Broncos' 224 yards of offense were the second-fewest in a win this season.

\n\n

The difference was turnovers. The Broncos forced three — awful fumbles by Herbert and Charlie Kolar and a terrible pick by Herbert — and turned that into 13 points. A fourth "turnover," a turnover on downs early in the fourth quarter, set the stage for the collapse. The Chargers had actually scored two touchdowns in the third quarter to take a 17-10 lead. Their possessions after that? Three and out, turnover on downs, fumble, interception, end of game.

\n\n

The Chargers lead the NFL with 13 turnovers this season, and they've come in all shapes and sizes.

\n\n

Simply put, it's over.
