Los Angeles Chargers vs Kansas City Chiefs: Storylines

The Los Angeles Chargers will give the ball back to Tyrod Taylor after an unimpressive, yet good-enoughouting in Week 1. The veteran completed just 16 of his 30 attempts for 208 yards but the Chargers didn’t turn the ball over in that game.

Los Angeles had 155 rushing yards with a solid combined effort from Austin Ekeler and Joshua Kelley and it seems like they’re going to be a run-heavy team until first-round pick Justin Herbert is ready to take the keys of the offense.

The Kansas City Chiefs didn’t need to do much to get an easy win vs. the Houston Texans in the season opener. Patrick Mahomes recorded “just” 211 yards and 3 touchdowns, which are modest numbers for him.

Rookie running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire lived up to the hype with 138 rushing yards (5.5 yards per carry) and a 27-yard rushing touchdown, helping Kansas City dominate time of possession for most of the game.
