The Kansas City Chiefs were really making some headway in the NFL power rankings across the nation, but then they went full-on Chiefs on Thursday night. If Kansas City wins that game, it is likely looked upon as an early Super Bowl contender. Instead, people just see the same old Chiefs, a team good enough to beat anyone but flawed enough to construct new ways to lose.
Of course, the Chiefs are not dead and buried by any stretch. Plenty of teams lose a bad game early in the season and still roll to the playoffs. Kansas City is 1-1 and right in the mix, a game behind Denver in the AFC West and tied with a legion of teams at 1-1 overall.
