The Kansas City Chiefs are in a very difficult spot right now. They fell to 6-6 after their loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving, and now, they are four games behind the Denver Broncos for first place in the AFC West and two games back of a Wild Card spot.

The Chiefs may have to run the table in order to have a chance of making the playoffs, and even then, they’ll need some help, and it’s important to note that all three teams currently in the AFC Wild Card slots hold tiebreakers over Kansas City.

In spite of all that, Chiefs head coach Andy Reid is remaining confident in his group, and he sent a really strange warning to the rest of the NFL as we head into the home stretch of the 2025 campaign.

“I’m telling you, we’re going to go after you every game,” Reid said. “That’s how we roll. We’re going to try to tickle your tonsils on every play, every game, but that’s the attitude that we’re coming in with, and you let the chips fall where they may.”

Nothing has been easy for Kansas City this season.

The Chiefs began the year 0-2 after back-to-back losses to the Los Angeles Chargers and Philadelphia Eagles and then struggled to beat the New York Giants in Week 3.

Kansas City then won five of six as it was beginning to look like it was righting the ship, but since then, the Chiefs have lost three of their last four and have been making some very uncharacteristic mistakes.

The Chiefs have made 10 straight playoff appearances and have captured nine straight division titles. The latter run is almost certainly coming to a close with the Broncos sitting at 10-2 and showing no signs of slowing down, and the former streak is also in grave danger.

Kansas City’s schedule isn’t getting any easier, either.

The Chiefs will face a red-hot Houston Texans team this Sunday before battling the Chargers in Week 15. Kansas City also has one more game with the Broncos sandwiched between matchups against the Tennessee Titans and Las Vegas Raiders.

We’ll see if the Chiefs — who have won made the Super Bowl five times in the last six years — have one more run in them.
