The Chargers reached the end zone just once last weekend against the 49ers. When they visited San Francisco in Week 7, the Chiefs scored six touchdowns. Mahomes threw for 423 yards that day and had a rating of 132.4, his eighth highest for a game.
All that sounds rather daunting given what Herbert and the Chargers’ offense just went through against the 49ers.
“He’s one of the special players in the game, but he’s still at the beginning,” Chargers coach Brandon Staley said of Mahomes. “There is still, hopefully, a lot of years of him playing this game. He’s great for the league.”
Kansas City will be without wide receivers JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion) and Mecole Hardman (abdomen). But Mahomes still has plenty of weapons in an offense that ranks No. 1 in the league in yards passing.
Of note: The Chiefs’ poorest performance through the air this season (226 yards) came against the Chargers in September. When these teams met at SoFi Stadium in December of last year, tight end Travis Kelce scored touchdowns late in regulation and early in overtime to lift Kansas City to a dramatic victory.
Going back to that game, the Chargers are only 3-3 in their last six games at home.
