8 winners and 5 losers as the Chiefs beat the Chargers in overtime

Any time the Kansas City Chiefs wear their white-on-white road uniforms, you know the team is about to go toe-to-toe with a formidable foe. Thursday night's game between the Chiefs and the Los Angeles Chargers was — for all intents and purposes — a fight for the AFC West.

From the beginning, this was a back-and-forth game. The Chiefs jumped out to an early 10- point lead that the Chargers quickly erased on the back of their own young gunslinger Justin Herbert. But down the stretch, head coach Andy Reid’s squad leaned on the proven connection between quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce.
