The 10-1 Kansas City Chiefs have found a way to be competitive against every level of competition in the NFL this season. They've pulled out close wins over the playoff-contending Ravens, Chargers and Broncos, and the cellar-dwelling Panthers, Bengals and Raiders alike. This team is just finding a way, and with a defense that has terrorized opposing quarterbacks this season — the Chiefs lead the NFL in QB knockdown rate and are third in pressure rate — it'll be a tall order for Aidan O'Connell, who's returning from a thumb injury and is expected to replace Gardner Minshew, who was knocked out for the season with a broken collarbone last Sunday.
The Chiefs already beat the Raiders 27-20 at the end of October in Las Vegas, in a game where Patrick Mahomes threw for 262 yards and two touchdown passes and Travis Kelce caught 10 passes for 90 yards and a score. The Chiefs aren't just looking for a win this week, they're also looking to clinch a playoff berth. With Miami's loss to the Packers last night, Kansas City can clinch a spot in the post season with a win tonight.
*********OR, IF MIAMI WINS********
Kansas City can clinch a playoff berth by the end of the weekend with a win tonight and a Broncos loss to the Browns on Monday Night Football.
