In that scenario, it would go to the common games tie-breaker between the Chiefs and Chargers.
Edit: The Chiefs currently hold the edge in that tiebreaker as well as they are 9-1 in common games and the Chargers are 8-2. The last two games for each team are also common games, which means the Chiefs own every tiebreaker over the Chargers. So a Baltimore win and a Chiefs win next week would give the Chiefs HFA.
