It was almost a predictable script. The Chargers were going to play the Kansas City Chiefs tough and Philip Rivers was going to have a chance to lead his team to a victory in the final seconds, only to blow it. And that’s exactly what happened.
The Chiefs were able to take a 24-9 lead in the third quarter following Patrick Mahomes‘ first and only touchdown pass of the game on a beautiful throw to Travis Kelce. But from that point, the defense fought and scratched to get the ball back for the offense and Rivers continued to turn the ball over.
