10 best games on the 2023 NFL schedule: Chiefs, Cowboys and Eagles to define the season

7. Best Games On The 2023 NFL Schedule — Los Angeles Chargers at Kansas City Chiefs in Week 7

Kansas City is back in the spotlight again as they take on the Los Angeles Chargers in a prime AFC West matchup. The Chargers have one of the few offenses in the NFL capable of going up and down the field with the Chiefs, which has led to some epic games in recent years.

The quarterback matchup between Patrick Mahomes and Justin Herbert is worth the price of admission as well. Herbert has more than held his own, winning two of the six meetings with Mahomes since he came into the league in 2020, and two of the four losses have come in overtime.

The six Chiefs-Chargers games with Herbert and Mahomes have also been very tight, with five of them coming down to one possession.

A win for the Chargers would also make an early statement that they are a force to be reckoned with in the AFC West. The entire league has been waiting for a crack in the Chiefs’ burgeoning dynasty and Los Angeles has an excellent chance to show the rest of the NFL where it is.
