Key Things to Know
  • Ron Kopp Jr. argues the Chiefs can take a commanding AFC West lead by winning their next two divisional games.

Following their bye week, the undefeated 4-0 Chiefs host the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 6 and travel to face the Denver Broncos in Week 8, sandwiching a Week 7 non-division matchup against the Seattle Seahawks.

The writer argues that securing victories over both division rivals would give Kansas City a 4-0 record in the AFC West. Sweeping the season series against Denver and building tiebreaker advantages would give the team significant breathing room heading into the second half of the regular season, potentially making the final two divisional games inconsequential.
