I don't think they will, but I think they are a darkhorse for the 6th seed.

No way will the Bengals hold it, so the Colts and Titans will be fighting for that spot.

That was in LA. The Chargers aren't beating Andy Reid at Arrowhead. He owns them.

Chiefs are sitting in the driver's seat right now and that bodes very well for you guys.

@ Rams / bye / @ Oak / Ravens / Chargers / @ SEA / Oak

Maybe KC loses to Rams and/or SEA. Easily 4-2 with that stretch, leaving you 13-3 as a worst case.

Patriots: @ Jets / MIN / @ MIA / @ PIT / Bills / Jets
I could see them losing @ PIT... maybe @ MIA. 5-1 at worst, maybe 4-2 down the stretch.

PIT: @ Jax / @ Denver / Chargers / @ Oak / Patriots / @ Saints / Bengals
I could see them losing vs Patriots and Saints. 5-2 down the stretch, maybe 4-3 worst case, but I doubt it.

Chargers have some tough games, maybe 4-3 worst case - likely 5-2.

Texans: @ WAS / TEN / CLE / IND / @ Jets / @ Eagles / Jax
I wouldn't be shocked with 4-3, 5-2 or 3-4 - they're a hard team to project.

Denver (just for grins): @ Chargers / PIT / @ CIN / @ SF / CLE / @ Oak / Chargers
OL injuries are piling up and that won't help them, esp on the road. Likely 2-5 or 3-4.

KC takes care of business and they'll play all their games @ Arrowhead in the postseason which is great for you guys given how they're doing right now.

Yeah, like MHM said, there are a few pivotal games left for the playoff situation in the AFC

Week 12: TEN @ HOU
Week 13: LAC @ PIT
Week 15: LAC @ KC, NE @ PIT
Week 17: CIN @ PIT

If you knew those you could probably seed everyone.

Like MHM said, FDF.

I will be (cringe) rooting for the donks for 3 of their last 7 though...

I'd love to play the Titans and the Patriots at home. The Titans are closer to grabbing the sixth seed than most believe and I'd love love love the ability to have them come into Arrowhead this year with Mahomes under center...Followed by a quick visit from Brady and the Patriots.

OP updated for week 12.

Need Pitt to beat NE and LAC......and lose to NO.

That's our path to home-field advantage.

We need to win out. Thats our road. Leave nothing up for grabs.

Or that!

Our path to HFA is just winning the games we're supposed to win.

So...all of them.

The Chiefs are demonstrably better than every other team on their schedule. If they play the game they played Monday night against any remaining team they face, they'll win each of those games by double digits.

Scoreboard watching is for 2nd and 3rd place. The Chiefs can and will nut up and take this home.

This is true.

But I still wouldn't be upset if a few of these teams drop some games.

Steelers are hamstrung by the tie they suffered earlier in the year, but New England could give us trouble. They are 1 game back right now (well, one more loss) and have the head to head against us.

Pats' remaining schedule

@ Jets
Vikings
@ Dolphins
@ Steelers
Bills
Jets

They could very well lose in Pitt and to the Vikes at home. Maybe in Miami, they usually struggle there.

Would prefer the Colts not make the playoffs.

Thank you.
