The Chiefs’ 15-game win streak in one-score games is a clear statistical outlier, but that doesn’t mean it’s driven by good fortune.

    It echoes the Eagles last year imo. Everyone kept saying they “found a way to win” until they didn’t. And then they lost. A lot

        As a Bills fan who got face fucked in butt by Brady and Belicheck for almost 20 years, I don’t want any team knocking the Chiefs out of the playoffs but the Bills. Fuuuuuuuuuuck I want to beat them when it matters soooooooook fucking bad.

      As much as I’d love the Chiefs to crash and burn, I really don’t see it happening.

      They play down to competition in the regular season and inevitably find that extra gear in the playoffs.

        I’m not saying that won’t happen. But usually they look better as the season progresses. This year, they haven’t.

    The chiefs are getting 16 players on the field though, which is a big help.
