Chargers are beaten down by Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes again, this time on last drive

LA Times  

The Chargers know this all too well. The Kansas City Chiefs kicked a game-winning field goal off the upright to clinch their ninth consecutive AFC West title with a 19-17 win Sunday as the Chargers lost their seventh consecutive game to their divisional rival. When Matthew Wright’s 31-yard field goal bounced off the left upright and through the goal posts as time expired, Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh could only stare blankly in front of him with his mouth hanging open. Last season the Chiefs won the season’s second divisional game on a field goal with 49 seconds remaining in SoFi Stadium. “We’re going against a good quarterback, a good team,” linebacker Daiyan Henley said, “so when it comes down to it, it just comes down to making the plays in those crucial moments.” The winning field goal bouncing off the upright felt like a fitting result for a team that has seemingly caught every lucky bounce this year.
