Kansas City Chiefs @ San Diego Chargers preview

Blogged under Bloglockers, Big Chiefs News, If I Were a Betting Man, This Week's Matchup Report, General Chiefs Discussion by Andrew on Saturday 28 November 2009 at 9:11 am

The Kansas City Chiefs (3-7) have a big challenge Sunday against the San Diego Chargers (7-3) on the road.  Unfortunately for the Cheifs, the Chargers have one of the best passing games in the league and the Chiefs have been giving up over 250 passing yards per game this season.  That means Philip Rivers will probably put up some big numbers in the passing game.  The Chargers’ running game has been very solid lately, with LaDainian Tomlinson running the ball the best he has all season.  The Chiefs will need their best game of the season if they want to beat the explosive Chargers.

The Chiefs offense will have a hard time keeping up with Rivers and the Chargers’ offense.  The Chiefs lost by 30 points earlier in the season to the Chargers, and I am expecting a similar game.  Matt Cassel threw three picks in that game, his worst of the season.  The Chargers don’t have a great defense, but they do a good job in defending the pass and they seem to have Cassel’s number.  The Chargers are likely to build an early lead, so the running game probably wont be relied on too much for the Chiefs.  I’m expecting another blowout win for the Chargers.

FINAL SCORE PREDICTION:  Kansas City Chiefs 13, San Diego Chargers 31
