The Raiders Derek Carr just threw for a 71% completion percentage, has 13 TDs against 4 INTs. Josh Jacobs is arguably a top 10 RB, maybe top 5. And they defeated a Lions team that came within a 99-yard fumble return of defeating our Chiefs (maybe, but the Lions were a tough out for the Chiefs).
The Chargers thoroughly dominated a Packers team that the Chiefs couldn't beat, in spite of a solid performance by our defense and a very good performance by Matt Moore.
Our Chiefs defeated the Vikings, led by October's Offensive Player of the Month, a legitimate top 5 offense and top 5 defense. And were considered the hottest team in the league going into Sunday.
Even the Broncos starting a back-up QB and a team with more holes in it than a block of swiss cheese somehow managed to beat the Browns, a team that on paper should've dominated that game.
Was that all just luck?
