The Kansas City Chiefs are off top spot in the AFC West for the first time in the Patrick Mahomes era. After a surprising last-second loss to the Baltimore Ravens, the Chiefs will hope to rebound against the Los Angeles Chargers in their first test in the AFC West this season.

Meanwhile, for the Los Angeles Chargers, Justin Herbert is off to a bit of a sluggish start. After throwing two touchdowns and three interceptions in his first two games, will Herbert be able to right the ship against the Chiefs defense?

Herbert's hopes are high, given the Chiefs have been holding the door open for offenses as the last-ranked defense in the NFL.
