Locations of the Los Angeles Chargers and Kansas City Chiefs

The Chargers–Chiefs rivalry is a National Football League (NFL) rivalry between the Los Angeles Chargers and Kansas City Chiefs.

Since the American Football League (AFL) was established in 1960, the Chargers and the Chiefs have shared the same division, first being the AFL Western Conference, and since the AFL–NFL merger, the American Football Conference (AFC) West. Following the Raiders' move to Las Vegas (Chiefs) and the Rams' return to Los Angeles (Seahawks and 49ers), they are now the farthest apart two teams in the same division. In recent seasons, Kansas City has dominated the rivalry with 18 wins in the last 21 meetings, including eleven straight wins in San Diego/Los Angeles.

The Chiefs lead the overall series, 70–58–1. The two teams have met once in the playoffs, with the Chargers holding a 1–0 record.[1]

Notable games

[edit]

1960s

[edit]

Season: 1960 (Week 1)
Score: Dallas Texans 20–21 Los Angeles Chargers[2]
Notability: The first regular season game for both franchises. Dallas led 20–7 after three quarters, but Jack Kemp ran for one touchdown and threw for another in a comeback win.[3]

Season: 1964 (Week 14)
Score: Kansas City Chiefs 49–6 San Diego Chargers[4]
Notability: Kansas City's 43-point win represents the widest margin of victory in the series. San Diego came into the game having already clinched the division, but turned the ball over six times. Len Dawson completed 17 of 28 passes for 220 yards, 4 touchdowns and no interceptions.[5]

1970s

[edit]

Season: 1975 (Week 12)
Score: San Diego Chargers 28–20 Kansas City Chiefs[6]
Notability: San Diego entered the game with an 0–11 record, but defeated the 5–6 Chiefs to avoid a winless season. They scored fourteen unanswered points in the final quarter; quarterback Dan Fouts was intercepted three times but scored the clinching touchdown on a 9-yard run.[7]

Season: 1978 (Week 11)
Score: Kansas City Chiefs 23–29 (OT) San Diego Chargers[8]
Notability: Won by a Charger touchdown as time expired in overtime. San Diego reached the Kansas City 14 near the end of the extra period, then almost ran out of time when Fouts mistook the play clock for the game clock. Fouts found John Jefferson in the back of the end zone for the game-winner as the last seconds ran off.[9]

1980s

[edit]

Season: 1985 (Week 16)
Score: San Diego Chargers 34–38 Kansas City Chiefs[10]
Notability: Stephone Paige broke the NFL single-season receiving yards record. Paige caught 8 passes for 309 yards and two touchdowns – a 56-yarder from Todd Blackledge and an 84-yarder from Bill Kenney.[a] Kansas City led 35–3 in the 2nd quarter and 38–13 early in the final quarter, before three unanswered Charger touchdowns left them just short of a comeback win.[12]

Season: 1986 (Week 7)
Score: San Diego Chargers 41–42 Kansas City Chiefs[13]
Notability: The highest-scoring game in the series. The Chiefs scored three return touchdowns in the second quarter, twice on interceptions by Lloyd Burress and once from a fumble recovered by Kevin Ross; Leslie O'Neal added an interception return touchdown for San Diego in the same quarter. The Chargers went on to outgain Kansas City by 512 offensive yards to 222, but still lost when kicker Rolf Benirschke missed a 35-yard field goal in the final minute.[14]

1990s

[edit]

Season: 1992 (Wildcard playoffs)
Score: Kansas City Chiefs 0–17 San Diego Chargers[15]
Notability: To date, the only playoff meeting between the teams. In rainy conditions, neither team scored in the opening half. Marion Butts opened the scoring in the 3rd quarter with a 54-yard touchdown run, and the Charger defense completed the shutout. Kansas City had swept the Chargers during the regular season, but finished with a 10–6 record to the Chargers' 11–5, hence the playoff game took place in San Diego.[16]

Season: 1995 (Week 6)
Score: San Diego Chargers 23–29 (OT) Kansas City Chiefs[17]
Notability: Tamarick Vanover scored the first overtime punt return touchdown in NFL history. In a close-fought Monday Night Football game, San Diego led 23–16 after a John Carney field goal with barely a minute left, before Steve Bono led a quick touchdown drive to force overtime. Vanover won the game in the extra period when he took a Darren Bennett punt back 86 yards for a touchdown.[18][19]

Season: 1998 (Week 3)
Score: San Diego Chargers 7–23 Kansas City Chiefs[20]
Notability: Rookie Ryan Leaf produced a passer rating of zero in his third start for the Chargers, having won the first two. Leaf finished with 1 completion from 15 attempts, for 4 yards, no touchdowns and three interceptions. He also lost three fumbles and was sacked twice for the loss of 23 yards.[21]

2000s

[edit]

Season: 2000 (Week 13)
Score: Kansas City Chiefs 16–17 San Diego Chargers[22]
Notability: As they had done in 1975, the 0–11 Chargers beat the 5–6 Chiefs to end the prospect of a winless season. Leaf threw two touchdowns to Freddie Jones in the first half to put San Diego up 14–3, but had an interception run back for a touchdown in the second half as Kansas City came back to lead 16–14. Carney converted a 54-yard field goal with two minutes left, and San Diego won when Warren Moon threw incomplete on 4th down.[23]

Season: 2001 (Week 8)
Score: Kansas City Chiefs 25–20 San Diego Chargers[24]
Notability: Quarterback Drew Brees, a future Super Bowl MVP, made his NFL debut for the Chargers after Doug Flutie was injured. Brees entered the game 16–0 behind; the deficit became 19–0 before he led the Chargers to 20 unanswered points. Kansas City responded with a game-winning Tony Richardson touchdown run in the final two minutes. Brees completed 15 of 27 passes for 221 yards, with a touchdown and no interceptions.[25]

Season: 2006 (Week 15)
Score: Kansas City Chiefs 9–20 San Diego Chargers[26]
Notability: LaDainian Tomlinson broke the NFL single-season records for rushing touchdowns (28) and points scored (186). He also extended his single-season record for tital touchdowns to 31, while rushing 25 times for 199 yards, and scoring on runs of 15 and 85 yards.[27]

Season: 2008 (Week 15)
Score: San Diego Chargers 22–21 Kansas City Chiefs[28]
Notability: The Chargers (5–8 entering the game) would have been eliminated from playoff contention with a loss, and Kansas City (2–11) led 21–3 in the 3rd quarter. The score was still 21–10 entering the final two minutes, but Philip Rivers threw two touchdowns either side of a successful onside kick, for a one-point lead. Chiefs kicker Connor Barth missed a 50-yard field goal as time expired, and San Diego eventually won the AFC West.[29][30]

2010s

[edit]

Season: 2013 (Week 17)
Score: Kansas City Chiefs 24–27 (OT) San Diego Chargers[31]
Notability: San Diego needed a win or tie to make the playoffs. The Chiefs, who had already clinched a playoff berth, rested many of their starters, but still led 24–14 entering the final quarter. After the Chargers tied the game, Chiefs kicker Ryan Succop had a chance to eliminate them, but missed a 41-yard field goal with 4 seconds left and San Diego won in overtime.[32]

Season: 2014 (Week 17)
Score: San Diego Chargers 7–19 Kansas City Chiefs[33]
Notability: At 9–6, San Diego needed a win to make the playoffs against the 8–7 Chiefs, who had a small chance of qualifying. The Kansas City defense sacked Rivers seven times and intercepted him twice, and Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce recovered a teammate's fumble in the end zone to help them lead by twelve points. San Diego drove into Kansas City territory on their final four drives but failed to score on any of them. Both sides missed the playoffs.[34]

Season: 2016 (Week 1)
Score: San Diego Chargers 27–33 (OT) Kansas City Chiefs[35]
Notability: The Chiefs came back from 21 points down to win in overtime. Melvin Gordon scored twice as San Diego took a 24–3 lead with six minutes to play in the 3rd quarter, but Alex Smith converted two 4th downs and threw two touchdowns as Kansas City came back to tie. Smith ran for the winning score himself on the first drive of overtime. He finished with 34 completions from 48 attempts, for 363 yards, two touchdowns and an interception.[36]

2020s
