Patrick Mahomes’ history with Chargers makes Sunday’s matchup more personal

Braden Holecek of Arrowhead Addict argues that Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has added motivation heading into Sunday's game against the 0-5 Los Angeles Chargers. Despite an overall 10-4 career record against the AFC West rival, recent meetings have created plenty of frustration for the quarterback, making the upcoming divisional matchup more personal than usual.

Holecek notes that two of Mahomes' four career losses to the Chargers occurred last season, including a defeat during an opening matchup in Brazil and a December meeting in which Mahomes suffered a torn ACL. Across 14 career games against Los Angeles, Mahomes holds 28 passing touchdowns, eight interceptions, and averages 265.5 passing yards per game.
