LA Chargers: 3 best games to watch during Bolts’ bye week
By Jason Reed
Primetime: Kansas City Chiefs at Buffalo Bills
This game had to be moved back to Monday after the Buffalo Bills played on Tuesday against the Tennessee Titans (Tennessee is still playing on Sunday but that is besides the points). It technically isn’t a primtime game, since it starts at 2 p.m. PDT, but it is on Monday so I am counting it as primetime.
This game is going to be electric. While Tampa Bay vs. Green Bay is going to a great competitive game, this is going to be the most fun game to watch. Two quarterbacks with massive arms slinging it down the field against one another.
It absolutely has ties to the LA Chargers that should be considered as well. If the Chiefs drop this game to the Bills then it opens the door for another team in the AFC West. Granted, they would have to continue to lose (which is not like the Chiefs) but it definitely brings them down to Earth.
Heck, if the Chargers would have just held onto their lead then the Chiefs would already be a two-loss team.
It is also going to be interesting to see how the team implements Le’Veon Bell into the gameplan. Mahomes really does have a spoil of riches and Bell adds an entirely new dynamic to the fold.
Also, the Chargers take on the Buffalo Bills in Buffalo later this season, so this could provide some good scouting for the coaching staff to store in the back of their head for that eventual matchup.
As much as they frustrate us, you cannot deny how good Patrick Mahomes is and his matchup against Josh Allen is going to be must-see TV.
