Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are scheduled to take on their AFC West division rivals Los Angeles Chargers in their week 7 game on Sunday. It is a must-see game between two division rivals and Super Bowl contenders that are looking to further improve their record in the ongoing season.

The Chiefs are coming off of a victory against another one of the division rivals, Denver Broncos. Mahomes and the Kansas City-based football team secured a hard-fought 19-8 victory against the Broncos in a close game. With that victory, Kansas City improved to 5-1 and are currently tied for the best record in the league.

On the other hand, Justin Herbert and the Chargers dropped to 3-2 after falling to the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football. Herbert and the Los Angeles-based football team fought hard against the Cowboys but failed to outscore them and suffered a 20-17 loss in a close game.

Kansas City Chiefs vs. Los Angeles Chargers Predicted Lineup

The Chargers are expected to start their star quarterback Justin Herbert on Sunday. He suffered a finger injury a couple of weeks ago but that is not expected to keep him out of the game. The Chiefs will also be starting their franchise quarterback Patrick Mahomes for their division game. Furthermore, the Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce is also fully healthy and will play against the Chargers.

One key matchup to watch out for this game will be the duel between the Chargers offensive line and the Chiefs defensive line. If the Chargers O-line can give a clean pocket to Herbert, the LA-based franchise will have a shot against the Chiefs.

Why the Kansas City Chiefs can win?

The Kansas City Chiefs are the favorites entering their week 7 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chiefs are currently tied for the best record in the league. Furthermore, they have two of the best players in the league.

Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce are arguably the best players in their positions. Besides, the Chiefs have talent all over the field and their defense has been balling out the entire season. They are fourth in scoring defense (13.3 PPG), third in opponent QBR (32.3), and fifth in yards per play (4.6). Their defense will play a key role if they are to win this tough game.

Why the Los Angeles Chargers can win?

The Los Angeles Chargers currently have a record of 3-2 and are trying to improve that by securing a victory against the Chiefs. If they have to win this game, their quarterback Justin Herbert has to play a flawless game.

The Chiefs do have the best W-L record in the league, but they haven’t been winning convincingly. They have struggled a lot in their last few games and if the Chargers can take advantage of that, they could certainly end up winning this game.
