The Wild Card Round of the NFL Playoffs is nearly in the books with one more game to be played on Monday Night (Rams-Vikings). Teams around the league who fired coaches and general managers are in the full swing of interviewing prospective candidates and we even had the New England Patriots hire Mike Vrabel already over the weekend.
It’s now officially time to shift focus to the 2025 NFL Draft for all but a small handful of teams as the NFL Playoff field was whittled down on Saturday and Sunday and we have a lot of observations to get through for all 32 teams.
Who are the biggest risers and fallers in our latest NFL Power Rankings with so much happening early in the playoffs and offseason?
NFL Power Rankings: Biggest risers and fallers after Wild Card Weekend; Latest head coaching rumors
32. Cleveland Browns
The disaster of the Deshaun Watson situation for the Cleveland Browns got both worse and better recently as Watson re-tore his Achilles tendon which is a huge offseason storyline for this franchise.
It got worse because Watson re-tore his Achilles and will count over $72 million against the 2025 salary cap if the injury happened while Watson was doing team-sanctioned rehab work. It might get better because if Watson re-tore his Achilles because of his own carelessness, then the Browns might be eligible for some desperately needed financial recovery.
Either way, this team is a mess that needs cleaning up and until it starts to happen, we’re going to hold them here in the last spot. The Browns have no quarterback for 2025, they fired their offensive coordinator, they play in arguably the best/toughest division in football, and they have more money allocated to the 2025 salary cap than any other team in the NFL.
Good times in Cleveland.
31. Tennessee Titans
The Tennessee Titans may have made a huge mistake firing general manager Ran Carthon this offseason despite what you may feel about him if you’re a Titans fan.
Tennessee clearly chose Carthon over Mike Vrabel last year and to fire Carthon without giving him an opportunity to reset at the quarterback position just feels odd. But patience is not an oft-practiced virtue in the NFL.
The Titans hold the #1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, so they’ve got that going for them. Other than that, this team needs work. They need a general manager and they’ve put themselves in a very weird situation with holes in the GM seat as well as at QB while deciding to retain head coach Brian Callahan.
The ownership in Tennessee obviously is still buying whatever Callahan is selling.
30. New York Jets
There’s casting a wide net to try and fix your organization, and then there’s the New York Jets. The Jets have just about interviewed one person from every NFL organization and a variety of people from the college and television arenas as well. They are redefining what it looks like to leave no stone unturned.
And while you can’t blame them because they want to get it right, you also can’t help but feel like the Jets are overthinking it a little bit. I mean, interviewing Rex Ryan for head coach? This isn’t 2009 anymore.
The Jets have plenty of issues to worry about right now including basically the entirety of their offense with Aaron Rodgers and his future looming over any GM/head coach hires like a funnel cloud forming over Oklahoma.
29. New York Giants
There are obvious question marks surrounding this New York Giants team, specifically at the quarterback position, but it looks like the brain trust of this team is going to remain intact for the time being.
Are the Giants dooming themselves to repeat the Chicago Bears’ mistake in 2024, keeping Matt Eberflus on borrowed time just for the sake of it? Honestly, I don’t hate it in this context for the Giants. I’m not sure who the absolute ace head coach candidate is out there who would A. Have interest in this job and B. Be the best for developing a young quarterback.
Rolling with GM Joe Schoen and HC Brian Daboll is a gamble, especially if you let them pick a quarterback. But it might be a worthwhile gamble based on the draft class the Giants brought in in 2024. They have a stellar crop of young players on the roster right now and the right QB could be the straw to stir the drink. It’s easy to forget this team was recently in the playoffs with Daniel Jones.
28. Las Vegas Raiders
Just like their other division rivals before them the Raiders might soon prove why having a big-name quarterback vouching for the organization and working with the team is a huge advantage. We saw how helpful that was for the Denver Broncos to bring in John Elway as their GM and basically team czar back in 2011, and we might see similar (albeit not identical) results with Tom Brady in the Raiders’ ownership group.
The Raiders are getting interviews with Ben Johnson and Pete Carroll already, and there has been some momentum growing toward Johnson who would qualify as arguably the single most coveted candidate out there right now.
And you can’t help but think the Raiders would have Tom Brady to thank, at least in part, because the direction of Mark Davis with this franchise is not what Johnson has seemingly mandated as part of a job he would take.
Brady might be putting a winning touch on this organization sooner rather than later.
27. New Orleans Saints
The New Orleans Saints are in the midst of a head coaching search and when you look at this team right now, it’s hard to imagine a better candidate than Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn.
Glenn has already worked in the Saints’ organization and would have at least some rapport with ownership as well as general manager Mickey Loomis. And coming from Detroit and the Dan Campbell tree, it’s very possible that Glenn is pitching a very attractive potential package of offensive coaches to come in and work with Derek Carr and that side of the football.
Keep in mind that the Saints dominated their first two games last season before injuries began to take their toll. With continuity expected on the offensive side of the ball, it stands to reason that a defensive-oriented coach could come in and lead the charge while assembling a staff who could make the already-existing personnel tick.
26. Carolina Panthers
The Carolina Panthers obviously had a disappointing year as a team in 2024, but we learned a lot about the future of this franchise and the decision to bench Bryce Young paid off in a big way.
It was probably one of the most shocking developments of the 2024 season, but Young’s emergence after being benched for Andy Dalton was a welcomed surprise in the second half of the year for the Panthers and arguably – dare I say – gives this franchise some optimism heading into the 2025 offseason.
Young played well enough down the stretch that the Panthers can reasonably take quarterback off the priority list this offseason. And picking where they are in the 2025 NFL Draft, they might be able to go out and get Young a playmaker like Tetairoa McMillan or Travis Hunter with their top pick.
Carolina could be sneaky in the NFC South in 2025. Get ready to be reading a lot about that over the next six months.
25. Jacksonville Jaguars
You could make an argument that the Jacksonville Jaguars have the best head coaching vacancy in the entire 2025 offseason.
You’ve got a quarterback lined up for the foreseeable future, at least on paper. Huge checkmark. You play in the AFC South, which is probably the worst division in football at this point. Another checkmark that isn’t as huge but certainly could help a coach look good early on. You’ve also got the benefit of a team that has historically been willing to shell out cash for free agents and bring guys in and free agents want to come to Jacksonville.
Why? No state income tax. That’s a huge recruiting tool for a head coach.
The Jags fired Doug Pederson for absolutely blowing it after looking like he was building a contender in the second half of the 2022 season. This Jags team has been the biggest disappointment in the NFL over the last two years. Someone’s going to have a chance to go worst to first in Jacksonville in 2025.
24. Chicago Bears
The Chicago Bears should have been in the head coach market in 2024 when they had so much going for them. They had cap space and were willing to spend. Their defense was on a heater at the end of the 2023 season. They held the #1 pick in the draft where Caleb Williams was a slam dunk selection. They had two top-10 picks.
The Bears obviously are still an attractive potential landing spot but the 2024 season did nothing to make them more attractive to prospective candidates out there.
And yet, they might still land one of the best ones. The Bears need to make sure they bring in the best possible head coach candidate for Caleb Williams’s development, but they are also in a weird situation. Chicago has retained Ryan Poles despite some massive errors up to this point and they are letting him help pick this next head coach. He absolutely has to get it right or the Bears will be in an ugly situation a year from now yet again.
23. New England Patriots
For my money, the New England Patriots might just have the single most attractive head coaching vacancy. And for the second straight year, it feels like New England has completely telegraphed its intentions.
Everyone knew the Pats were going to hire Jerod Mayo last year to replace Bill Belichick. Their hand-picked coach-in-waiting lasted just one year with the team before Robert Kraft decided to move on, and they are the first team to make their next hire.
Mike Vrabel was always going to be the most obvious choice here for New England, a guy who has hoisted the Lombardi for this franchise before and who has also recently been a coach of the year. So why did he land one of the most attractive jobs out there?
Well, I think a head coach coming in is going to have significant roster say. They already have a franchise QB in Drake Maye in place, but on top of that, some of the most cap space in the entire league. The Patriots are going to be active and aggressive this offseason in surrounding Maye and I think the next head coach (likely Vrabel) is going to benefit from his second-year breakout in a big way.
22. Indianapolis Colts
It’s going to be very interesting to see how the Indianapolis Colts approach the 2025 offseason with former 4th overall pick Anthony Richardson.
There’s no doubt that Richardson has loads of talent and athleticism. He’s a unicorn at the position in terms of his size and athletic traits, and he is undoubtedly and asset when running the ball. But his passing abilities need refining, to say the very least.
Richardson completed just 47.7 percent of his passes last season and you can blame the receivers all you want for drops – that figure is horrific. On top of it all, Richardson has not proven to be the most durable player at the NFL level. For a player who desperately needs reps and time on task, he’s only played 15 games in two years and jobs could be on the line in 2025.
And that is the true source of the intrigue here, isn’t it? With jobs on the line, how will the Colts protect themselves at QB? It’s got to be better than Joe Flacco.
21. Arizona Cardinals
It’s not often that you see NFL teams just completely fall off a cliff after their bye week, but that’s exactly what happened for Jonathan Gannon and the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals looked poised to make a lot of noise in the NFC West after starting off the year 6-4 and vying for the division title, but they ended up on the outside looking in late in the year despite getting a fully healthy year from Kyler Murray.
Obviously, this is a roster that is a work in progress. They aren’t a fully finished product, by any stretch, but the Cardinals have shown growth in each of Gannon’s first two years at the helm.
This offseason will be huge for internal player development as well as the Cardinals getting aggressive to add some studs at key spots, such as the outside linebacker position. Pass rush and playmakers are desperately needed defensively. This Arizona defense was one of the five worst on third downs this season and they were dead last when it comes to plays allowed per drive. They need guys who can help them get off the field.
20. Atlanta Falcons
It’s still hard to believe the Atlanta Falcons gave Kirk Cousins a $180 million contract this offseason and then used the 8th overall pick on Washington star Michael Penix Jr. But in hindsight, general manager Terry Fontenot over-correcting at the QB position after doing almost nothing for the first three years of his tenure with the team looks like a genius move.
The Falcons pivoted to Penix late in the year with the season on the line and he nearly helped them win the NFC South, but it was too little, too late.
You can’t help but be at least a little excited about the future for Atlanta with an offseason where Penix is the unquestioned starter and leader of the team. Someone is going to come in and trade for Kirk Cousins and this Atlanta team can move on with what I would expect to be an offseason that is extremely heavy in terms of investing in the defense.
Atlanta could be a very fun team in 2025 after going full-send on the Michael Penix Jr. era.
19. Dallas Cowboys
I struggle a little bit with where to place the Dallas Cowboys. If this team is fully healthy, they are good enough to win at least 11 games a year. Dak Prescott was hurt this past year, and when Dak was healthy, Micah Parsons was hurt.
The Cowboys have a tremendous roster core but do they have the right supporting cast? That’s going to be the major question for Jerry Jones and company to answer this offseason as they seemingly contemplate whether or not to bring Mike McCarthy back into the fold.
And as of right now, the Cowboys don’t appear to be in any hurry to make rash coaching decisions. It’s not like they are out there publicly making it known that they are interviewing other candidates. In fact, they’ve blocked McCarthy from interviewing for other gigs.
It’s hard to imagine they feel like he’s the best long-term option for this team but do you want to take on a bunch of change at this critical point in Dak Prescott’s career?
18. Miami Dolphins
The Miami Dolphins may have avoided disaster by having a conversation with star wide receiver Tyreek Hill after the season. Believe it or not based on how the last couple of years have ended, but the Dolphins are actually in a championship window right now.
Everything with this team hinges on the quarterback position and Tua Tagovailoa. The Dolphins have to find a way in the 2025 offseason to protect themselves from the same situation we saw them fall into this past year.
Does that mean going after a high-end backup in NFL free agency? Probably. Does that mean drafting a quarterback with some upside, maybe higher than anyone really wants? Maybe. The Dolphins should be active in upgrading the quarterback position behind Tagovailoa to potentially even set themselves up to move on from Tagovailoa if that guy ends up playing and doing well.
I don’t think we’re going to see this franchise move on from Tua anytime soon, but given how important he is to their success, they need to have multiple “break glass in case of emergency” situations that can actually help them thrive if/when he misses time. Because history would tell us that he’s going to miss some time, unfortunately.
17. Seattle Seahawks
This could be an offseason of a lot of difficult change for the Seattle Seahawks. It looks like Tyler Lockett has already said his goodbyes, and perhaps it’s time for that separation. But what about Geno Smith?
The Seahawks could save $25 million in cap space if they moved on from Smith this offseason but the question is – what is the alternative? Seattle was able to win 10 games again this past season and finish second place in the NFC West, and maybe you just bank on being able to hit that mark again in the 2025 season.
If that’s the case, you’re typically going to be putting yourself in good position for the playoffs. And to miss out on the postseason despite winning 10 games is rough. Seattle does need to start maybe thinking about the future at the quarterback position but as Qui-Gon Jinn once educated Obi-Wan Kenobi, you must be mindful of the future but not at the expense of the moment.
Get ready to hear a lot of “he gives us the best chance to win” this season before Seattle makes any drastic changes in 2026.
16. San Francisco 49ers
Scoff at this ranking for the 49ers all you want, but we all know that if this team would have been healthy in 2024, they would have probably ended up winning and dominating the NFC West.
Unfortunately, injuries are part of the game and you need your depth to show up and show out. Most importantly, I think the 49ers really needed Brock Purdy to elevate the guys around him this year and it didn’t really happen. Despite that, GM John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan doubled down on their commitment to Purdy.
And to be fair, you shouldn’t just give up on a young guy at the QB position who just had a 30-touchdown season after one bad year. Purdy has shown he can operate the Shanahan offense with a high level of efficiency and he could just as easily have a bounce-back year in 2025 as he had a down year in 2024.
But the 49ers have to find a way to upgrade the depth on their roster and stay healthy, or it’s going to be disastrous again next year.
15. Pittsburgh Steelers
As complimentary as we have been about Mike Tomlin here over the years, I think it’s also fair to be critical of how his team has played in big games in recent years. At least when it comes to the playoffs, the Pittsburgh Steelers have done nothing but book their tickets since Ben Roethlisberger left.
There’s something to be said for this team just getting to the dance with regular season success, but there’s also something to be said for the fact that they just are barely competitive in games like we saw against the Baltimore Ravens.
Especially considering that was their third shot at Baltimore.
Now, the Steelers once again enter the offseason with major quarterback questions. There are going to be questions about whether or not George Pickens is back. This team feels like it’s due for a big regression year in 2025.
14. Denver Broncos
Just making the playoffs was critical for the Denver Broncos in 2024. The team that was expected by many to win five games or less this season ended up making the postseason after winning 10 games and nine of those 10 games by 9 points or more. Sean Payton had one of the youngest rosters in the NFL and more dead cap (over $89 million) than any other team in the league.
In reality, it was a masterful coaching job by Payton and a huge year for Broncos fans, who have not experienced the playoffs since the team won Super Bowl 50 in 2015. Their playoff drought is officially over, and expectations for this franchise will reset now that Bo Nix is coming off of a tremendous rookie year.
Nix accounted for 34 touchdowns in the regular season and was a huge catalyst for the Broncos’ improvement this season. They ranked 10th in the NFL in scoring offense and top-five in scoring defense. They weren’t ready for the playoff stage just yet, but that experience will pay off.
13. Los Angeles Chargers
It doesn’t matter who the head coach is, apparently. Nothing is going to stop the Chargers from Chargering.
I am still in a bit of shock over the way that game played out in Houston on Saturday. Justin Herbert threw just three interceptions over the course of the entire 2024 season before throwing a whopping four picks and looking completely lost against DeMeco Ryans and the Houston Texans.
It’s just a foregone conclusion at this point that no matter what, the Chargers aren’t going to be able to figure it out at crunch time. Maybe we should give them some more grace because this was Jim Harbaugh’s first year at the helm, but this is Justin Herbert’s fifth season. It’s inexcusable that he played this bad in such a big spot. The Chargers will continue to reload and build that roster and undoubtedly will be a big-time threat in next year’s regular season. But what’s going to happen when we get to the playoffs?
12. Cincinnati Bengals
The Cincinnati Bengals obviously just missed out on the playoffs in 2024, but I think they’re going to come back with a vengeance in 2025.
It’s wild to think about how important that season-opening loss to the Patriots ended up being for them in the long run. Take care of business in Week 1 against a vastly inferior opponent, and the Bengals are likely in the playoffs over the Broncos right now.
But they simply didn’t win or close out enough games, and the scapegoat was defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo. This was the same guy getting head coach interviews in recent years for how dominant that Bengals defense had been.
Now, he’s looking for a job, and the Bengals appear to be shopping in the budget-friendly department for replacements. While the defense does need upgrading in 2025, it’s going to be more than just the play-caller. The Bengals are at a crossroads with a number of key players and they’ll have to make pivotal decisions offensively as well.
Specifically, contract situations for Tee Higgins and Ja’Marr Chase are hanging over this franchise’s head. Thankfully, they have Joe Burrow, who might just be the best QB in the league right now.
11. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
It was a brutal way to go down in the playoffs for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs had 2nd-and-short with just over six minutes left against the Commanders on Sunday night, and they not only ended up having to settle for three points after not converting that down and distance, but they never even got the ball back.
As impressive as the Bucs have been at times this year, they’ve also been maddeningly inconsistent. Some of that had to do with injuries, but other times it was just an inexplicable lack of execution.
The Bucs are probably too good of a team to be exiting from the playoffs this quickly but they are not far off from being in the upper echelon of NFC teams. This roster needs a dawg off the edge to fill the void left behind by Shaquil Barrett.
10. Green Bay Packers
After the run we saw this Green Bay Packers team go on in the 2023-24 postseason, to see them get bounced immediately as the 7th seed in the NFC was a little disappointing and underwhelming. But it’s critical to remember that this Packers team is one of the youngest in the NFL and they just have so much talent across the board.
And with the way GM Brian Gutekunst has drafted recently, you can expect that talent to get better and better.
Green Bay was overmatched against Vic Fangio’s defense in the postseason and the Eagles have just been on such a heater. That team is a buzzsaw for anyone they’re going up against. But the Packers are back to the drawing board this offseason with help needed defensively for coordinator Jeff Hafley.
What this Green Bay team needs is another game-wrecker off the edge. They had just one player (Rashan Gary) with over nine QB hits this season.
9. Washington Commanders
You can’t help but be super impressed by Jayden Daniels, who has run away with the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year award here late in the season.
Commanders fans were anointing him the MVP at the end of their first playoff win in nearly Daniels’s entire lifetime, and while Daniels may not be on Lamar Jackson or Josh Allen’s level just yet, he’s got his team to the same point in the postseason.
And that’s the definition of value in today’s NFL.
How good must it feel for Commanders fans to see their team not only win a playoff game, but the torture for Dallas Cowboys fans at the fact that it’s Dan Quinn leading them to the win?
This is a sweet one for Washington fans and a time in franchise history this fan base is going to treasure. It’s been a long time coming.
8. Houston Texans
I’ve got to eat some crow regarding the Houston Texans. I thought they were one of the most overrated teams in the entire league coming into the NFL playoffs. They played in a bad division. They looked horrible down the stretch. CJ Stroud seemingly hit a second-year slump. They just felt like such an underwhelming division champion.
But they came out and made me look dumb with a tremendous performance against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Justin Herbert entered the game against Houston with three interceptions, and he threw four picks into the Texans’ secondary with All-Pro Derek Stingley Jr. leading the way. DeMeco Ryans had his guys ready in this game and the young head coach absolutely throttled a much more experienced coach in Jim Harbaugh on the other sideline.
This game wasn’t even close thanks to Houston’s defense. Can they carry that momentum for a rematch in Kansas City against the Chiefs this coming week?
7. Los Angeles Rams
The Rams play on Monday night against the Minnesota Vikings, and I won’t be shocked at all if they come away with a win despite the Vikings having a pretty significantly more successful regular season.
The Rams have a number of key players who have won the Super Bowl, including their quarterback. They know what it takes to win at this point in the season and the Vikings simply don’t. With Los Angeles having revamped its defense over the last handful of years since they won it all, there are a lot of young players who are going to have to make names for themselves on the biggest stage.
Players like Jared Verse, Braden Fiske, Kobie Turner, and Byron Young need to make life miserable for Sam Darnold as quickly as possible to help this Los Angeles team go on another potential Super Bowl run.
I have been a huge believer in Sean McVay and his crew this year. I think they can make some noise.
6. Minnesota Vikings
The Minnesota Vikings came out flat in their final regular season game against the Detroit Lions, and it was particularly concerning because of the fact that the Detroit defense has been so beaten up this year.
I think to some degree, while many of us have really enjoyed seeing the resurgence of Sam Darnold this season (and actively rooting for him to succeed after the disastrous situations he’s been in early in his NFL career), we’ve also all been waiting for the clock to strike midnight on the Cinderella story.
But Darnold has a chance to continue to rewrite the narrative surrounding him and the way he plays in big games. The Vikings will play on Monday night on the road against the Rams and the pressure is going to be on Darnold in a big way to have a huge game. He’s simply got way too many weapons to come out flat in a game of this magnitude, especially with a contract north of $100 million likely on the line.
5. Baltimore Ravens
The Baltimore Ravens are a well-oiled machine. I think everyone expected the Ravens to coast in the Wild Card Round against the Pittsburgh Steelers and that is exactly what they did. And they did it without Zay Flowers in the lineup…
As if this Ravens team could be any scarier, we’ve seen them completely roast a solid opponent without arguably their best weapon in the passing game. Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen are now set to clash in a battle of top-tier teams in the AFC and it’s a shame that the Chiefs don’t have to face one of these teams right away.
I find it absolutely astounding that five teams managed to outscore the Ravens this season. It doesn’t make sense when you watch them play. They are so well-rounded and the only explanation is that there were some total lapses at times defensively because this has the look of a team that might have accidentally lost one game this year, not five games overall.
Now, they’ve got to go to Buffalo where the Bills have only lost one game in two calendar years.
4. Buffalo Bills
After starting off in a 7-0 hole against the Denver Broncos, the Buffalo Bills absolutely Cooked the Denver Broncos.
Pun fully intended.
James Cook said to Josh Allen, “Don’t worry about this one. I’ve got it,” and absolutely ran all over the Denver Broncos. Cook and the Bills’ rushing attack racked up over 200 rushing yards against a defense that hadn’t allowed even 150 rushing yards to an opponent all season long.
It was a totally dominating performance by Buffalo’s offensive line and they are going to need the offensive attack to be equally efficient when they host the Baltimore Ravens in the divisional round. If you want a shot at the Kansas City Chiefs (not to overlook the Texans), you’re going to have to play a near-flawless game against this Buffalo team. Josh Allen is just on a different plane than we’ve seen him throughout his NFL career.
3. Detroit Lions
I think Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton said it best when he said that there’s no better job interview that Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Aaron Glenn will do than what everyone saw in the regular season finale between the Lions and Vikings.
Glenn’s patchwork unit absolutely shut down Sam Darnold and a Vikings offense that has barely been stopped all year long. You have to tip your cap.
I was seriously doubting the Lions because of their many injuries defensively and maybe they caught fire at just the right time, but it earned them the #1 overall seed in the NFC and the right to host all throughout the Playoffs. And that is huge because otherwise, they would have been the #5 seed in the conference and on the road for likely every matchup barring upsets elsewhere.
Dan Campbell, Aaron Glenn, and Ben Johnson had their guys ready on the biggest stage. And they’re going to be just one win away from hosting the NFC Championship as a result of it.
2. Philadelphia Eagles
This looks like the best iteration of the Philadelphia Eagles that we’ve seen in the last five years, and that is speaking volumes because the Eagles had a team that took the Kansas City Chiefs to the brink just a couple of years ago in a Super Bowl.
Saquon Barkley has a legitimate case to be made as the MVP of the NFL this season. Vic Fangio was one of the most underrated additions made by any team all offseason regardless if we are talking player or coach, and he should be the assistant of the year in the NFL.
The Eagles’ pickups of players like Quinyon Mitchell and Zack Baun have complletely changed the complexion of the defense for Fangio and GM Howie Roseman. The stars have aligned. The Eagles are going to be hosting another playoff game next weekend after obliterating the Packers in the Wild Card Round and I don’t know if anyone in the NFC – even the Lions – will be a match for them as the postseason rolls along.
1. Kansas City Chiefs
Aside from the last week of the season in which their backups were dominated and shut out against the Denver Broncos, the last two games we saw the real Kansas City Chiefs play at the end of 2024 might have been the best we’ve seen them all season.
Patrick Mahomes and the offense are firing on all cylinders. That defense is going to be dangerous. The Chiefs have home-field advantage throughout the playoffs again.
There’s a reason this team is dominant in one-score games and there’s a reason why they are on track to win their third straight Super Bowl. My goodness, can you imagine if that actually happens?
Kansas City is the modern NFL dynasty, and someone is going to have to take their throne by force. They don’t look like they’re going to go down easily in the playoffs.
