The Kansas City Chiefs kept on rolling as they moved to 6-1 with a victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Kansas City started fast on offense, scoring on four of its first five possessions. The Chargers hung tough, though, managing to put up 17 points in the first half.
The second half was a different story, however, as the Chiefs’ defense got back to the dominant form that it had played at for most of the season. Los Angeles was shutout in the second half, and although the K.C. offense committed a few self-inflicted wounds, it put the game away late in the fourth quarter with one last touchdown.
