The Kansas City Chiefs find themselves in a position that few expected them to reach.
Just a month ago, the team stood at 9-6 after losing five of the previous eight games. Most of those losses had come because of the team’s own mistakes — including those of quarterback Patrick Mahomes.
But according to head coach Andy Reid, Mahomes also played a key role in getting the team where it is now: preparing to face the Baltimore Ravens for the AFC Championship on Sunday afternoon.
“Listen, Pat’s a perfectionist,” Reid told reporters before Wednesday’s practice.
