Los Angeles Chargers vs. Kansas City Chiefs Prediction
I’m on the Chargers and the points here. Historically this has been a close matchup, and while the Chiefs are in must-win mode to keep their playoff hopes alive now that the division is out of the question, this is a team that continues to have issues in close games. Los Angeles is still in the mix for the division title, and a win here could not only go a long way towards securing their playoff bid, but knocking off a rival’s and I think that this one could come down to the wire as well. Give me Los Angeles and the points.
