So, I’ve been following the NFL playoffs closely, and man, things are getting intense! I’m a huge Chiefs fan, and I’ve been really hyped about their performance so far. I really wanted to figure out who they’d be facing next if they managed to win their last game.
First, I recalled their recent games. I remembered that Christmas Day game against the Steelers – what a blowout! That win really gave them some well-earned rest. I also remembered that earlier in the season the Bills got them, and the Steelers had a good run in the AFC North after beating the Ravens. All these results were running through my head.
Then, I started to think about the bigger picture. I knew the Chiefs had a great record this season, 15-1 if I’m not mistaken. And they had one more regular-season game against the Broncos. That means they’ve really been smashing it.
- I dug into some recent news and found that the Chiefs even got Hollywood Brown back from injury, which is huge for their offense.
- I also checked out their Super Bowl odds, which were looking pretty good at +350. That’s a 22.2% chance of winning, which is better than at the start of the season when they were +500. That gave me a real good feeling.
With all this info, I realized the Chiefs had already secured the No. 1 seed, giving them a bye for the wild-card round. That’s what all that talk about them resting up was about. I was so happy when I figured that out!
Figuring Out Their Next Opponent
So, I figured the next step was simple. They would play the lowest remaining seed in the AFC after the wild-card round. I looked at the schedule to find out who that might be.
I also found this little stat that they’re 10-9-1 against the spread in their last 20 games. It is not a big deal, but it’s still a fun fact. Anyway, I was really excited to see who they’d play next and how far they could go in the playoffs. Go Chiefs!
It took me a bit of time to piece it all together. I had to look at different results and news to really understand the situation. But once I did, it was all pretty clear. I’m no expert, but I think I’ve got a good handle on it now. I just hope they can keep up the momentum and make a deep run!
