Last week was rough for picking winners. I picked the Kansas City Chiefs to beat the Tennessee Titans. Travis Kelce, the so good Kansas City tight end, finished the first half with four receptions for 66 yards and a touchdown. But he sustained a concussion, and did not play in the second half. With him out, the Titans outscored the Chiefs 19-0 to advance to play New England.
Would the Chiefs have won if Kelce had stayed healthy? I think so. But it doesn’t matter. The Titans were as good as they needed to be and I missed the pick.
