Which team is the real Kansas City Chiefs? To start out the season, the Chiefs get a slap in the face and lose to the Tennessee Titans. The TITANS! Some people may have thought that the Titans are for real, but as the season has gone on they are a complete mess. THey could be hunting for the top quarterback in the draft when all the dust clears.

Then a few weeks ago the Chiefs STOMP on the New England Patriots. People wondered if the Patriots were just losing their luster and that is why they took a smacking, but they have bounced back and won some big games and look like the contenders that they always are.
Who are these Chiefs though? Are they the playoff team from last season that just needed a little bit of defense in order to advance into the next round of the playoffs or are they the team that got beat by Jake Locker?
We will find out this weekend against the San Diego Chargers. The Chargers are 5-1 going into the game and the Chiefs played them well last season, despite losing both games. They need to show up in this game and make some noise. The Raiders were able to move the ball on the Chargers and the Chiefs will need to find a way to do the same.
The game is big for the Chiefs. It will boost their confidence and it will bring the division a little closer to them. Which team will show up?
