The Kansas City Chiefs showcased their dominance by winning three consecutive games against tough opponents, solidifying their position as a top contender in the AFC playoffs.
The Kansas City Chiefs have once again made their haters absolutely sick. They finished the toughest stretch of their season, three games in an 11-day window, winning each one and looking better with every outcome. Two of those wins were against teams that will be in the playoffs. The Chiefs are now 15-1 this season, and are peaking at just the right time.
With the conference now having to go through GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium, there's a chance that rest will be huge for players who have been through the postseason grind over and over since Mahomes became the starter in 2018. In fact, they have reached the AFC Championship Game in each of those seasons and have been to four Super Bowls in that stretch as well. Time off will be welcomed for those who have earned a late-season break. The rest of the team, perhaps some players who haven't been through the grind over that many seasons, will get their much-deserved rest during a bye week as other teams are playing on Wild Card weekend. For extended periods, the Chiefs continued to do what they do best: win. It hasn't always been pretty but in every game except for one, they have been able to do what they needed to come out with a win. Chiefs Kingdom and the majority of major media wanted to see bigger wins instead of contests coming down to blocked field goals, fumbled snaps or doinks off the goalpost. At the end of the day (and at the end of the season), it simply doesn't matter how the games were won. All that matters is that they won and the team can now rest well with home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. The road to the Super Bowl runs through Kansas City. It can not be overstated how impressive this team has been. Despite injuries to key players, having a target on their back each week as the reigning champions as Brown has entered the fold. After Rice went down, JuJu Smith-Schuster was able to have his biggest game of the season
