Pro Football Hall of Fame coach Sid Gillman got to play out his many great offensive innovations in a decade long tenure with the Los Angeles/San Diego Chargers during the 1960s. Debuting in 1960 as the Los Angeles Chargers, the team relocated to San Diego after just one season in LA. A standout in the early phase of the American Football League's existence, the Chargers won division titles in five of the first six AFL seasons from 1960-1965, with 1962 being the lone exception to the run. The team's highpoint came with the 1963 AFL Championship, which remains the franchise's only league championship to date. Enjoy a look back at the Chargers AFL days, with this incredible 1963-1969 collection of (52) all different programs, including three complete regular season home game runs and two near runs.
