That's pretty good odds for a team that was once 1-5. If you'd claimed we'd have a 30% shot at the playoffs at any point on, you'd be laughed off the Internet.
But outside of New England, Cincy, and Denver... the rest of the conference is a dumpster fire. And Denver's offense has been awful.
I have no illusions about the Chiefs playing at a championship level though. I will say this, the way things are going the 5 seed is going to be in a good spot. Houston won today, and the Colts are hurting bad and have to play Carolina tomorrow. Indy loses and the Texans are tied for the division lead. If the Colts can't get healthy that 4 seed could be pretty rough.
