Chiefs tiebreakers - win with Ravens, lose with Texans, Colts

So, the Chiefs have one big advantage here. We only play three winning teams the rest of the way, one of which is the shitty Titans.

The Colts play six, the Texans six, the Ravens five.

We are set up for a classic Reidian Run.

Not sure why you guys are giving up on the 1 seed. If the Chiefs win out, they only need the Patriots to drop 2 games to get the 1 seed. With the Ravens, Cowboys, Eagles, and Texans all coming up, that's not an impossible ask, especially if more injuries occur.

Mind you, I don't think the Chiefs will get the 1 seed, and if the Pat's win this week while the Chiefs lose, sure, expecting the Pat's to go sub 500 the rest of the way is a stretch. But that hasn't happened yet, and the 1 seed is still very much a possibility. So why give up on it so soon?
