Here’s some info from Wikipedia about the last few Chargers seasons:

The team earned a trip back to the post-season in 2004 by capturing the AFC West division title with a 12-4 regular season record. finishing the regular season 12-4. Quarterback Philip Rivers was acquired in a 2004 NFL Draft day trade with the Giants fellow quarterback Eli Manning, who had been the first pick of the draft. Rivers was expected to take over the starting quarterback job[citation needed], but he held out of training camp in a contract dispute, allowing Drew Brees to take over the starting role[citation needed]. The Chargers entered the first round of the playoffs but were eliminated by the New York Jets, who won in overtime 20-17. Rookie kicker Nate Kaeding missed a 40-yard field goal that would have advanced San Diego into the next round, thus opening the door for a Jets victory. Despite an abrupt ending to their season, Head Coach Marty Schottenheimer was named NFL Coach of the Year for the season, and Brees was named NFL Comeback Player of the Year.

During the 2005 NFL Draft, the Chargers drafted linebacker Shawne Merriman, who go on to become a selection to the 2006 Pro Bowl and the 2005 Defensive NFL Rookie of the Year Award recipient. The team used their second first round selection on defensive tackle Luis Castillo. The Chargers started the season without tight end Antonio Gates as he was suspended two games by general manager A.J. Smith for holding out in training camp. The 2005 season saw LaDainian Tomlinson’s 18-game touchdown scoring streak end as Kaeding had a field goal blocked and returned for a touchdown in a 20-17 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on the road[citation needed]. Facing the 13-0 Colts on the road, the Chargers took a 16-0 lead into the third quarter of the game, but the Colts responded with 17 points of their own to take a 1-point lead in the fourth quarter. The Chargers would retake the lead on a field goal by Kaeding then scored again on an 83-yard touchdown run by Michael Turner. However a week later, the Chargers lost on the road to the Chiefs as an injured Tomlinson rushed for only 47 yards. The Chargers would go on to lose their season finale to the Broncos, with Brees suffering a dislocated shoulder to end the Chargers’ 9-7 season.
