All week, it seems, the pundits have been trying to make it crystal clear that the Pittsburgh Steelers are not a viable opponent for the Kansas City Chiefs, the second seed in the AFC, who will host the Steelers in the Wildcard Round on Sunday.
We’re not just talking about loudmouths on the television like Nick Wright, but we’re also talking about the local beat writers who are asking the Chiefs’ coaches and players questions this week. One reporter even asked Andy Reid if they were going to do any planning for potential Divisional-Round opponents this week.
He of course rejected that notion out of hand and make it very unambiguous that the entirety of their focus is on the Steelers, because of course it is, because that’s what NFL head coaches know to do.
