Kansas City Chiefs vs Los Angeles Chargers Prediction

The Chiefs and Chargers will play each other twice this year, and Patrick Mahomes seems to have Justin Herbert's number each time they play (including earlier in 2024), and the lines favor Kansas City right now for a good reason, even though the game is at Sofi Stadium. 

The Chiefs offense of Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, Rashee Rice should give the Chiefs the edge over Los Angeles. Further, despite being one of the better offenses in the AFC the last few years, the Chargers will be without Keenan Allen this time, so what will the Chargers offense look like, and will Justin Herbert have enough firepower?

The back-to-back Super Bowl Champions still boast one of the best rosters in the NFL, and when you have former MVP Patrick Mahomes leading the way, along with one of the best tight ends in the game in Travis Kelce, it is hard to pick against the Chiefs.
