NFL Playoff Projection: Chargers-Chiefs is practically an AFC West title game

The Los Angeles Chargers won a thrilling game early this season at Kansas City. It looked then like the Chargers had a shot to disrupt the Chiefs' streak of division titles.

The Chargers still could win the division, but they have to win on Thursday night. Los Angeles has dropped some games and the Chiefs have gotten hot. Kansas City leads by one game in the AFC West, but the Chargers could still win the division, and it's mostly due to that win earlier this season at Arrowhead Stadium.
