Not only are the Chargers squarely in the playoff mix but the AFC West is still within reach. A win for the Chargers would drop the Chiefs to 11-2 with the Chargers at 9-4, right in shouting distance.

Chargers vs. Chiefs Predictions For NFL Week 14, Sunday Night Football

Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman have only been there for one loss. But Justin Herbert has been there for the last six straight. The Chargers are hoping to break a losing streak against the Chiefs that goes back to 2021.

The will be a tall task as the Chiefs have only last one game this year, a 30-21 loss to the Buffalo Bills on November 17th. The Chargers have been hot themselves, winning five of the last six. The loss came on Monday Night Football to Jim Harbaugh’s brother Jon and the Baltimore Ravens.

 

 

 

Los Angeles Chargers: Jim Harbaugh’s Physical Football

The Chargers have felt like a pass-happy organization going all the way back to the days of the Air Coryell offense. Dan Fouts, Philip Rivers, and Justin Herbert have all let it fly. But this new era with Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman features a more physical, run-heavy attack. And it’s hard to argue with the results.

On defense the Chargers have been tremendous. They rank 6th in DVOA per FTN Fantasy and have been extra tough against the pass with stars like Asante Samuel Jr. and Derwin James. They did hold the Chiefs to 17 points, after all.

 

 

 

Kansas City Chiefs: Cruise Control

The Kansas City Chiefs have not really been blowing teams out like you would expect an 11-1 team to do. In fact they have the lowest margin of victory that an 11-1 team has ever had. But they are playing smart football and that translates to wins. Which is all that matters at the end of the day.

The Chiefs haven’t really needed to run up the score on their side in many games because their defense has been playing so well. They’ve been expecially tough against the run where they rank 8th in DVOA. They are currently allowing the third fewest rushing yards per game at only 87.8.

Chargers vs. Chiefs: Game Total Under 43 (-110 at BetMGM Sportsbook)

This is just one of those games where the strengths and weakness of each team don’t quite matchup in a way that is conducive to scoring. It’s almost an unstoppable force meeting an immovable object in that sense.

The Chargers have been great against the pass. They have Derwin James who once famously “power bombed” Travis Kelce. And Asante Samuel can help limit DeAndre Hopkins. The Chiefs will likley need to go to the ground to make things happen on offense.

On the flip side, the Chargers jettisoned their top four pass-game weapons this off-season in Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, Austin Ekeler, and Gerald Everett. They still need to build out that part of the attack and, with their best pass-catcher Ladd McConkey banged up, Justin Herbert doesn’t have the tools he needs. The Chargers are missing starting running back JK Dobbins against one of the toughest run defenses so I’m going with under 43 points in this one. The last time they played there were 27 points scored.
