Chargers need to clean up penalties, turnovers to compete with Chiefs

COSTA MESA, Calif. -- Los Angeles Chargers coach Brandon Staley hasn't minced words this week about his team's performance against the Dallas Cowboys.

"We had two 40-plus-yard passes taken off the board because of penalties," he said. "We were a little off with out mechanics and our technique. That's going to be a point of emphasis moving forward."

Because going forward means going into Arrowhead Stadium, arguably the loudest stadium in the league, to face the two-time defending AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs (1 p.m. ET Sunday, CBS). And even though the Chiefs and the Chargers both lost last week, this should be a whopper.
