But I think the Chiefs are in for a very tough opponent, offensively. Bosa and Mack are going to make Mahomes' life hell. I think you can run the ball against them, especially if Joseph-Day is out for othe game. But Bosa and Mack, man. They may combine for 5 sacks.

Andy Reid, however, has especially good game plans cooked up for defenses with high pressure rates, especially if you can rake them at the second level, which you can with the Chargers. So with the extra time off, I'd anticipate Reid to have a very good gameplan with few of the "eccentricities" that have been costly in previous games.

Chiefs 30, Chargers 18.

I think the Chargers are really good, if stupid, but the Chiefs on both sides of the ball have too many answers for the things they like to do.

I seriously doubt they sack Mahomes 5 times. They're great players but Mahomes doesn't take sacks very often. Also, I'm positive that Keenan Allen will have a few catches but they effectively shut down Justin Jefferson. I doubt Allen gets much more than Jefferson did. Besides, aren't we about due for the Keenan Allen season ending injury?
