The Los Angeles Chargers, under the guidance of Jim Harbaugh in his second year, delivered a stunning 27-21 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in Brazil. The Chargers broke their losing streak against the Chiefs with an unexpected aerial assault led by Justin Herbert, catching the Chiefs' defense off guard. Herbert threw for 394 yards, with 318 coming through the air.

Chargers Unleash Passing Attack

In 2024, the Chargers were known for their run-first offense under Greg Roman. However, they started 2025 with a potent passing game, raising questions about a shift in offensive strategy. Their performance against the Chiefs answered those questions emphatically, demonstrating a willingness to air it out when needed.

Chiefs' Defense Struggles

The Chiefs' defense, once a strength during their Super Bowl-winning 2023 season, struggled to contain Herbert and the Chargers' passing attack. Offseason losses in the secondary were exposed, leaving Steve Spagnuolo scrambling for answers. The Chiefs were forced to rely on blitzes in the second half, but it proved insufficient to stop the Chargers' offense.

Xavier Worthy Injured

Adding to the Chiefs' woes, rookie wide receiver Xavier Worthy suffered a dislocated shoulder after colliding with teammate Travis Kelce. Worthy is expected to miss time and will wear a brace upon his return. This injury further weakens the Chiefs' receiving corps, already missing Rashee Rice due to suspension. Veterans Hollywood Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster will need to step up in Worthy's absence.
