with how much Darnold is giving it up is pretty crazy they are still in this game.

Does no one want to win at the KC/Denver game? I mean WTF.

Denver's defense is very, very good.

If their offense was even average they'd probably be the prohibitive SB favorite at this point.

How far can NE and Denver take their high playoff seeds, defensive excellence, and rough January home conditions? We shall see.

I dont know why we are so conservative with a lead. Too many runs stopped for no gain forcing 3rd and too long.

Davante wasn't himself today but the playcalling after the first quarter was shit.

Also came away with no points twice. Pukas first lost fumble i think.

The 4 INTs and keeping us out of the endzone for 3 quarters was the difference for our side.

Probably no playoffs for the Chiefs this year. A lot of competition and on the wrong side of a lot of tiebreakers. Just can't close out any games this year.

Patriots / Bills / North Winner / Colts / Broncos.

That leaves two slots, between the AFC North loser, Jaguars, Chargers, and Chiefs.

The Chargers _had_ a great record, but their offense is not doing well. Though the Broncos potentially resting people in Week 18 (if the first seed is out of reach vs NE / Indy) could give the Chargers an edge.

As far as the AFC North loser, I thought the Ravens would rally and get a wild card, but they may flat out win the division now. A, say, 9-8 Steelers would only make the playoffs as a division winner.

The Chiefs just need to get ahead of those two to be in.

Broncos offense is going to be the cause of their early exit from the playoffs if they don’t address it. They could still mess up and not make the playoffs in true Denver fashion (not likely at this point), but a good defense only goes so far. Eventually they will get scored on. The inability to score the ball will be their downfall if they don’t correct that.

Yep that's how they beat my Panthers in the Superbowl a decade ago. I wasn't even mad about that loss. Supermanbaby (Cam Newton) said 'if you want me to stop talking shut me up' and they by fucking god DID. I was pretty jimmy rustled about their previous Superbowl loss (by 3 pts) to the Pats though.
