Kansas City Chiefs schedule 2023: Worst-case game-by-game predictions, Weeks 6-9

Here’s the thing about the Chiefs-Chargers rivalry: Neither team is overawed by playing in hostile territory. Kansas City has won nine in a row on the Chargers’ home turf while LA has a respectable 3-2 record in their last handful of trips to Arrowhead.

The Chiefs are 5-3 (2-1) going into Week 9…
