The Los Angeles Chargers pulled off a huge comeback win on Thursday night in Kansas City, scoring a touchdown with four seconds remaining in regulation — and then a daring two-point conversion — to beat the Chiefs, 29-28. The Chargers and Chiefs are both 11-3 now in the wake of that result. The Chargers need to finish ahead of the Chiefs to win the division, as Kansas City has a better record in the AFC West. However, that win showed the strides Los Angeles has taken after their 1-1 start and shows that the Patriots aren’t the only challengers for the AFC crown that Kansas City could struggle to beat. We have some NFL betting predictions for how the AFC Conference side of the bracket will turn out, as you look at your futures wagering.
