In an improbable twist, the Kansas City Chiefs fell to 6-7 on the season with a 20-10 loss to the Houston Texans on Sunday night. With a win next week, Justin Herbert and the LA Chargers can essentially end the Chiefs' season on their home soil.
This is the first time in Patrick Mahomes' career the Chiefs have been under .500 in December and it may be the first time he ever misses the playoffs. Nobody saw this coming after Kansas City once again represented the AFC in the Super Bowl last season.
Perhaps more surprising than all else is the fact the Chiefs have been dealt a relatively clean bill of health this season.
