I like exactly one thing the Chargers have on offense, and that's their bookend tackles.
That's it. Especially if Herbert is out.
And that is really problematic for the Chargers, because the Chiefs generate a ton of pressure without their DE group playing super well. We're going to generate a ton of heat, and Easton Stick will melt in the face of it.
I guess I do like Hayden Hurst at TE, but now that Bolton seems to be playing better, I'm not sweating TEs as much.
On offense, all eyes will be on Wanya Morris. Can he hold up against Khalil Mack. Will Reid trust him on an island.
Kelce is likely to be erased this week by Derwin James, so it'll be interesting to see how healthy Rice is throughout the week. The Chargers have an okay secondary, but they don't have a ton of answers for Rice. The progressive move by the Chargers would be to put Derwin on Rice, but you know Derwin just has to have Kelce.
I have really loved the Chiefs run game this year, and this would be a good game, with Easton Stick melting down, to just see how far the run game can get you. Put a ton of the run game on tape, and see if you can get teams down the schedule to adjust for it, allowing Reid to counter.
The Chargers have a good defense, but the Chiefs should be able to put up 20+ on them. And there's no way Easton Stick can do that on us.
I'd be shocked if we don't sweep the Chargers this year.

Chiefs 23, Chargers 9.
Do you even watch Chiefs football? The one team Kelce has owned every time they play game in and game out is the Chargers, Derwin James or not. [Reply]

You do realize that there's a very significant chance both Slater and Alt don't play, right? At best they'll be significantly hampered. [Reply]

Their backup QB is Heinecke, not Easton Stick. [Reply]
Based on his last few posts, I think it's clear that Direckshun has not actually watched any football so far this season and is just trying to get involved back in football conversation. [Reply]

Direckshun doesn’t actually exist anymore. AI has taken over that account. [Reply]
