Chiefs still in control of playoff destiny despite loss to Rams

LOS ANGELES -- The Kansas City Chiefs lost their much-hyped battle against the Los Angeles Rams on Monday, but even in their disappointment in the moments afterward, they felt they really lost nothing at all.

"It's like the college football thing when a No. 1 plays a No. 3 and loses, do you really bump them down?" tackle Mitchell Schwartz said. "They're still two of the best three teams."

Despite their 54-51 loss to the Rams, the Chiefs still feel they belong in the conversation with regard to legitimate Super Bowl contenders.
