The 1983 San Diego Chargers season began with the team trying to improve on their 6–3 record in 1982. It was their first losing season in seven years, as it is to date the most points the Chargers have surrendered in a sixteen-game season.
Despite San Diego's disappointing win-loss record, they led the NFL in passing yardage for the sixth consecutive season, which remains an NFL record.
Gill Byrd had an interception for San Diego.
