Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes won't play, but 34-year-old backup QB Blaine Gabbert is a veteran with 51 NFL TD passes. And this Kansas City defense is second in the NFL in yards allowed, third in points given up (17.6 per game), and Top 10 on third down (37.04%). The Chiefs are 41-21 ATS on the road against defenses that allow 24+ points per game. The Los Angeles defense has allowed the fourth-most yards and is ranked 17th on third down (38.43%). QB Justin Herbert is done for the season so QB Easton Stick gets another start. He has no TD passes in the last two games. The Chargers are 10-22 ATS at home after three straight defeats, 42-67 ATS at home after failing to cover, and 22-41 ATS at home versus winning teams in the second half of the season. Play Kansas City.
