5-0 CHIEFS! Patrick Mahomes & Kenneth Walker CRUSH Chargers
Summary
The Arrowhead Addict hosts break down the Chiefs' 5-0 start after a 22-6 win over the Chargers, noting that while Kansas City dominated, they played a "C-minus" game with several miscues. Key topics include Xavier Worthy's breakout performance, Kenneth Walker's continued dominance, and concerns regarding special teams errors and Chris Jones's lack of sacks. The discussion also covers the Chargers' poor state, with predictions that head coach Jim Harbaugh and offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel will be fired, while Justin Herbert remains under the franchise's protection.
