Los Angeles Chargers road favorites at Kansas City Chiefs in Week 17

The Los Angeles Chargers are the betting favorites in their Week 17 road game at the Kansas City Chiefs.

The Kansas City Chiefs (14-1), who are already locked into the AFC’s No. 1 seed, host the Los Angeles Chargers (6-9) Sunday of Week 17 at 4:25 p.m. ET. Here’s a look at the early Chargers-Chiefs Week 17 betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.

The Chargers defeated the Denver Broncos 19-16 in Week 16. Michael Badgley’s fourth field goal of the game with 41 seconds remaining lifted San Diego to its third straight victory. All three of those wins have been by 3-point margins. Prior to the streak, the Chargers had been 1-5 in games decided by 5 points-or-less. Against Denver, San Diego was a plus-2 in turnover margin, and it won despite being outgained by 80 yards (396-316) and lost the first-down battle 23-16.

The Chiefs rallied for yet another come-from-behind victory in a close game as they downed the Atlanta Falcons 17-14 in Week 16. QB Patrick Mahomes’ 25-yard TD pass to WR Demarcus Robinson with 1:55 remaining sealed the Kansas City victory. The Chiefs earned similar come-from-behind wins in Weeks 11 and 13. Kansas City has won 10 consecutive games with each of the last seven decided by 6 points or less. In Week 2, the Chiefs rallied from a 17-6 third-qaurter deficit to beat the Chargers 23-20 in overtime.
