The Kansas City Chiefs may be out of the AFC playoff picture currently, but Vegas seems to think they'll play a role in how things shake out in January and February.
As it stands right now, if the season ended today, the Kansas City Chiefs would be on the outside of the playoff picture looking in. This would obviously be a devastating occurrence, but it’s also why the NFL schedules more than six games in a season. Teams like the Broncos, Jaguars, Patriots, and Chargers would make the hypothetical “let’s just do this now” playoffs, while the league’s most prolific winner, Patrick Mahomes, would get an early start on his mad scientist workouts with trainer Bobby Stroupe—and likely fit in some golf while he’s at it.
