The Kansas City Chiefs held off a brave effort from Justin Herbert to beat the visiting Los Angeles Chargers 27-24. A Chiefs field goal late in the third quarter tied the scores and ensured a grandstand finish. Chiefs kicker Matt Ammendola then looked to have wrapped up the result for Kansas City when he converted on a 31-yard attempt. Unfortunately the Chargers were unable to beat the clock as the Chiefs secured back-to-back wins to start the season. Mahomes finished with two touchdowns and 235 yards, while Herbert posted 334 yards and three touchdowns in the losing effort.
