Game Note

Monday Night Football features two teams looking to bounce back from crushing defeats last week. KC blew a 4th quarter lead to a mediocre Titans club and the Chargers offensive ineptitude made the Raiders defense look serviceable, which it isn’t. Looking ahead to Monday, KC QB Mahomes claims to be completely healthy after dealing with leg injuries all season and for the first time since week #1 the OL may actually have all five starters back together for MNF. Unfortunately for the Chargers their OL has been decimated by injuries with no reinforcements coming and QB Rivers’ play has suffered to the point that this week he talked potential retirement at season’s end. Despite the players grumbling HC Lynn made the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs the Chargers’ training ground this past week to prepare for the attitude in Mexico City (7200 ft) which is the site of this week’s game. Whether that helps with conditioning is inconsequential as the Chargers secondary has backups at every position that KC HC Reid will exploit from multiple formations allowing a healthy Mahomes to test the Chargers’ newfound endurance as they continually chase KC’s speed to the endzone, so bet KC -4.
