KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City’s hopes for a fourth straight AFC West championship hang in the balance during the next two games.

The Chiefs will try to get back on track after a disappointing loss against the Tennessee Titans with a divisional game in Mexico City against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Kansas City was slated to play in Mexico last season, but dangerous field conditions moved a game with the Los Angeles Rams to the L.A. Coliseum.

This season, all systems are go for the Chiefs’ first international game since a 45-10 victory in 2015 against the Detroit Lions in London.

Quarterback Patrick Mahomes shined in his return from a two-game absence from a dislocated kneecap, but the defense, especially the second-half run defense, regressed, and special teams had some special hiccups.

What must the Chiefs do to defeat the Chargers?

How will the altitude affect the game?

And, of course, co-hosts Nick Jacobs and Tod Palmer answer your tweets in the latest edition of 4th and 1.
