S\u00e3o Paulo in Week 1 is a good place to start if the teams wants to unseat the Chiefs, who have won nine consecutive AFC West titles.<\/p>\n<p><template id=\"also-read-articles-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<p>Patrick Mahomes has been a dominant force in the AFC since taking over as the team&#8217;s starting quarterback in 2018. He also has a 10-2 record against the Chargers during that span.<\/p>\n<p>In 12 games against LA over his career, Mahomes has passed for 3,270 yards, 27 touchdowns and seven interceptions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#2 &#8211; <\/strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sportskeeda.com\/nfl\/jayden-daniels\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-is-sponsored=\"false\">Jayden Daniels<\/a><\/strong><strong> (Washington Commanders) &#8211; Week 5<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is expected that Jayden Daniels would get even better in his second season after impressing in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Daniels recorded the fourth-best quarterback rating among all signal callers and emerged as one of the league&#8217;s most dangerous dual-threat quarterbacks last year. When the Chargers face Washington in Week 5, they will likely be cautious of the threats he poses.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#3 &#8211; Jalen Hurts (Philadelphia Eagles) &#8211; Week 14<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Philadelphia Eagles are one of the scariest teams to play against next season. Jalen Hurts and his teammates are fresh off winning the Super Bowl in February. He has led the Birds to two Super Bowl appearances in the last three seasons and the team will look to pick up where they left off.<\/p>\n<p>It will be interesting to see how teams will try to contain Philadelphia&#8217;s explosive offense in 2025; however, a plan to stop Hurts could be a good way to start.<\/p>\n<h2>Worst quarterbacks the Chargers will face in 2025<\/h2>\n<p><strong>#1 &#8211; Mason Rudolph (Pittsburgh Steelers) &#8211; Week 10<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Aaron Rodgers has been rumored to abandon his retirement plans and take over as the starter for the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2025. Since that hasn&#8217;t materialized, Mason Rudolph is expected to be Pittsburgh&#8217;s starting quarterback.<\/p>\n<p>Every team on the Steelers&#8217; schedule would likely be salivating over the chance to face them this season if Rudolph is the confirmed QB1. As a starter for the Tennessee Titans, Rudolph had a 1-4 record last season, recording 1,530 passing yards, nine touchdowns and nine interceptions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#2 &#8211; Anthony Richardson (Indianapolis Colts) &#8211; Week 7<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Chargers&#8217; defense showed their tenacity in multiple games throughout the 2025 campaign. Anthony Richardson will likely struggle against the Chargers&#8217; defense in Week 7.<\/p>\n<p>He had one of the lowest completion rates in the league last season (47.7%), in addition to registering 12 interceptions. After a run of poor games, Joe Flacco replaced him as the Colts&#8217; starting quarterback from Week 7 to Week 10.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#3 &#8211; Russell Wilson (New York Giants) &#8211; Week 4<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If Russell Wilson starts the season as QB1 for the New York Giants, he will likely still be the starter when the team faces the Chargers in Week 4.<\/p>\n<p>Wilson will play for his third team this season since departing the Seahawks following the 2021 campaign. That should be a telling sign about the quarterback, who is 36 years old.<\/p>\n<p>The Giants will likely continue to benefit from Wilson&#8217;s capacity for executing deep throws in 2025; however, his inconsistent performances and issues with mobility could remain evident concerns.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-post-rating-widget\">\n<p><template id=\"post-rating-feedback-modal-template\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-feedback-box\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-content\">\n<div class=\"post-rating-feedback-data\">\n<p>Why did you not like this content?<\/p>\n<p><textarea id=\"dislike-feedback-text\" rows=\"4\" placeholder=\"Please type your feedback...\"\/>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\n<button class=\"close\">Cancel<\/button><br \/>\n<button class=\"submit\">Submit<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-widget-parent hidden\">\n<div class=\"rating-parent-container\">\n<div class=\"rating-content-holder\">\n<p>Was this article helpful?<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-rating-action-container\">\n<div class=\"like-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-like-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"like\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"like selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"dislike-container\">\n<button class=\"post-rating-dislike-button post-rating-button\" data-action=\"dislike\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"post-dis-like-image post-rating-image\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/like-articles\/upvote-icon-grey.svg\" height=\"20\" width=\"20\" alt=\"avatar selected\"\/><br \/>\n<\/button>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThank You for feedback\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"post-author-info-parent\">\n<span class=\"about-the-author\">About the author<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"author-info-holder\">\n<div class=\"author-pic-holder\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"author-pic\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,&lt;svg width=\" height=\"100\"\/><rect width=\"100\" height=\"100\" style=\"fill:rgb(128, 128, 128);\"\/>&#8221; data-lazy=&#8221;https:\/\/keedag.sportskeeda.com\/user-pic\/909915-1713559621-200.jpg?w=200&#8243;<br \/>\nalt=&#8221;Habib Timileyin&#8221; height=&#8221;72&#8243; width=&#8221;72&#8243;&gt;\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"author-bio-detail-holder\">\n<div class=\"author-bio\">\n<p class=\"author-bio\" id=\"author-bio-text\">\nHabib Timileyin has been an NFL journalist at Sportskeeda for 2 years. He holds a Bachelor\u2019s degree in English, and found himself drawn to the NFL about a decade ago.<\/p>\n<p>Habib&#8217;s favorite team is the Cincinnati Bengals and he particularly enjoyed their run to the Super Bowl in the 2021 season. The 2016 Super Bowl between the Atlanta Falcons and the New England Patriots is his most favorite of all time, and if given a chance to go back in time, he would love to witness the Patroits\u2019 incredible comeback from being 28-3 down to winning 34-28.<\/p>\n<p>Habib admires Tom Brady for his journey from being in a low draft position to achieving immense success in the game. His favorite coach of all time is Bill Belichick.<\/p>\n<p>Habib likes to study intricate details of a story before reporting on it, and compares information among several reputable sources to ensure accuracy.
