The Chiefs’ defense faces two challenges: the Chargers — and time

The Kansas City Chiefs are gearing up to play what has turned out to be one of the most important games of the regular season — the Week 15 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers — just about exactly 100 hours (and about 1,300 miles) from the final play of Sunday's 48-9 rout of the Las Vegas Raiders at Arrowhead Stadium.

The typical four-day turnaround for a Thursday Night Football game is a pain in the neck for NFL coaches. This is especially true when the game is on the road — and when the head coach is someone like Kansas City's Andy Reid, who is famous for his weekly game-preparation routine.
