Chiefs Gain Playoff Edge with Week 12 Boost
The Kansas City Chiefs, with a 10-1 record, have a greater than 99% chance of making the NFL playoffs and a 96% chance of winning the AFC West. Their chances of securing the AFC's top seed and a first-round bye have improved, contingent on their performance and the outcomes of other teams' games. The Chiefs' playoff prospects were bolstered by their Week 12 win over the Panthers and other favorable results. The New York Times playoff calculator indicates that even if the Chiefs lose their remaining games, they still have a 91% chance of making the postseason.
