Why Bet on Chargers versus Chiefs
There are a couple of reasons to back the Chargers over the Chiefs. First, the Bolts always play the Chiefs tough in Kansas City. Chargers versus Chiefs has become one of the top rivalries in the AFC.
Second, Justin Herbert is playing great football. Herbert is completing close to 69% of his passes for 1,333 yards and has thrown 9 touchdowns to just 2 interceptions.
Another reason to back the Bolts to at least cover? The Chargers D has stepped it up in the last couple of games, holding the Raiders and the Cowboys to 17 points.

Why Bet on Chiefs versus Chargers
Since losing their first game of the season to the Detroit Lions, the Kansas City Chiefs have rolled to 5 straight wins. Kansas City isn’t just beating teams with Patrick Mahomes, Travis Kelce, and Isaiah Pacheco.
The defense has dominated. No team has scored more than 21 against the Chiefs and that team was 5-1 Detroit. Steve Spagnuolo’s defense is playing lights out, which means the Bolts’ offense will struggle to score on Sunday.
Kansas City Chiefs Offensive Averages
- Total Yards: 382.3
- Passing Yards: 263.8
- Rushing Yards: 118.5
- Points Scored: 24.5
- Turnovers: 9
Kansas City Chiefs Defensive Averages

Kansas City Chiefs vs L.A. Chargers Final Betting Prediction
Don’t expect a shootout. Kansas City can score 30 or more on most teams, but history tells us the Chargers defense plays Patrick Mahomes tough. Not only that, but KC’s D is playing great football.
So we should be in line for a low-scoring, under game, which means the pick is to take the points on the Chargers. Los Angeles is 7-3 against the spread in the last 10 head-to-head meetings in Kansas City.
The Chiefs should win. But KC gets the victory via 3 to 4 points, definitely not by 6 or more. Take the points on the Bolts to cash.
