The Kansas City Chiefs lost control of their own destiny when they fell to the Houston Texans, 20-10, in Week 14’s Sunday Night Football feature. That loss dropped them to 6-7, with just four games left to go in the 2025 NFL season.<\/p>\n

Now, they’re seated in the 10th seed in the AFC, with head-to-head losses against several teams above them in the standings.<\/p>\n

At this point, the Chiefs could win out and still fail to make the playoffs. It might be improbable for them to punch a postseason ticket, but it’s certainly not impossible.<\/p>\n

There’s still a path for them to claim one of the Wild Card spots in the conference and continue their dynasty with a Cinderella run through the playoffs. Kansas City can’t afford to think that far ahead, though. The Chiefs have to remain focused on the task at hand: ending their two-game losing streak.<\/p>\n

Chiefs expected to beat the Chargers<\/h2>\n

The Kansas City Chiefs opened their 2025 NFL season in Brazil. They ended that game without two of their top playmakers, with Rashee Rice serving the first week of his six-game suspension and Xavier Worthy exiting the contest early with a dislocated shoulder. With a severely limited offense, the Chiefs were upset by the Los Angeles Chargers in S\u00e3o Paulo, 27-21.<\/p>\n

That loss began a severely disappointing season for KC and kickstarted a resurgent campaign for LA. The Chargers have had to deal with a myriad of injuries, including losing both of their starting offensive tackles for the season, but Justin Herbert’s MVP-level campaign has kept them in the playoff hunt. They’re currently in the fifth seed at 9-4.<\/p>\n
