In a game that meant nothing, we almost got nothing from the offense, and in the first half, we did. The 10-to-6 lead the Kansas City Chiefs had at the half came as a result of a 97 yard scoop-n-score by DB Mike Edwards. That’s right, the defense provided the scoring… of a touchdown anyway. Plus, Harrison Butker gave us a 22-yard Field Goal and that came as a result of a failed drive by the Chiefs.
In the third quarter the Chargers got another field goal to make it – Chiefs 10, Chargers nine. However, one play before that Chris Jones met his incentive with a ack of Easton Stick and he consequently made $1.25 millions as a result. The final score came as a result of Mike Edwards TD and Harrison Butker’s 2 Field Goals. Malik Herring had a big sack late in the game. All the Chargers could muster was four Field Goals. The Chiefs finish with an 11-and-6 record and the Chargers end up with a 5-and-12 record. While the Chargers will be hiring a new Head Coach soon, you have to wonder who would want to go there and play for that team?

Quote of the Game
Pete Sweeney, of ArrowheadPride, said after the game:
.
“There’s no denying it: the Chiefs have had a bit of an up-and-down season. As I think about the regular season that was, I find that it wasn’t one with a lot of those moments we’ve seen in recent years. I’m not sure I agreed with the decision to play defensive tackle Chris Jones — especially into the third quarter of a meaningless football game — but seeing him finally get home for his $1.25 million sack after coming close all day made a 2023 moment you will remember.”
