It's been a dreadful week of counting the seconds until the Kansas City Chiefs take the field against the Buffalo Bills. When we last left them, the Chiefs were hosting Ben Rothlisberger's retirement party: a 42-21 thrashing of the Pittsburgh Steelers.
In last week's Wild Card games, we saw good football played by good teams, and then we also saw the Las Vegas Raiders choke and the New England Patriots take a nap for four quarters.
I don't know which I enjoyed more, watching Bill Belichick show up to the game dressed in a cosplay costume as Sub Zero from Mortal Kombat, or seeing Derek Carr throw a fourth-down pass short of the goal line — what has to be one of the most Carr-like plays in the history of the sport.
