It was a very modest affair the last time Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs played against Justin Herbert’s Los Angeles Chargers in California. The Chargers succumbed to a 17-10 defeat that day, but on coming Sunday the stakes are higher when they meet for the reverse fixture at Arrowhead Stadium.
Mahomes led the Chiefs to back-to-back victories against the Carolina Panthers and the Las Vegas Raiders after losing against the Buffalo Bills in November. The win over the Raiders secured the reigning Super Bowl winner’s safe passage to the playoffs by beating their AFC West rivals in week 14, which will only increase their confidence further.
As for the Chargers, they scraped past the Atlanta Falcons last week with a 17-13 victory. It was Jim Harbaugh’s eighth win as the Chargers head coach. Chiefs superstar tight end Travis Kelce is extremely impressed by their divisional rival’s change in culture but at the same time very wary of them.
They’re playing with some… heart, and I hadn’t seen that in the Chargers in a long time.
Travis Kelce said on his podcast
Justin Herbert may not have amazing numbers, but he is among the most efficient quarterbacks in the NFL. Herbert has 2551 passing yards, 15 total touchdowns, and just 1 interception in 12 games.
The Chiefs boast an overall record of 70-58-1 against the Chargers. Andy Reid’s team has won six in a row, and the Chargers’ last victory came back in November 2021 when Herbert threw 4 touchdowns.

How the Los Angeles Chargers can win?
The key to beating the Chargers starts with Herbert, but he needs his receivers to keep hold of the ball. There has been questionable catching from the likes of Joshua Palmer and Quentin Johnston in the past.
On top of it, there’s doubt whether their best receiver (58 catches for 815 yards and four receiving touchdowns), rookie TE Ladd McConkey, will be available on Sunday. He missed Friday’s practice due to shoulder and knee injuries. He remains day to day.
In the defense, Derwin James remains the biggest threat for the Chiefs. James has one interception on top of 75 tackles, 5.0 TFL, 2.5 sacks, and six passes defended this year. Veteran All-Pro pass rusher Khalil Mack has 33 tackles, 5.0 TFL, and 4.5 sacks through 10 games.
Why the Kansas City Chiefs can win?
The Kansas City Chiefs may be going through a slump, but they are still carving out wins. Patrick Mahomes has completed 68.4% of his passes, averaging 248.3 yards per game for 19 touchdowns. It’s the interception column where the three-time Super Bowl MVP has struggled this season, throwing 11 in 12 games.
Running back Kareem Hunt leads the team with 592 rushing yards and five touchdowns, with rookie receiver Xavier Worthy averaging 33.9 yards and 4 touchdowns, along with 407 receiving yards from 33 catches.
