5 NFL Teams That Won’t Make the Playoffs

Kansas City Chiefs

When you lose to a team hadn’t won a game in year, there is immediate cause for concern. Just three weeks ago, the Chiefs were coming off a five-game win-streak before their matchup with the Raiders on Thursday Night Football. Ever since that loss against the Raiders, the 49ers have lost two in a row. With teams starting to figure out Kansas City’s defense, it is hard for the Chiefs to keep up with teams considering how mediocre their offense is.

For their next three games, the Chiefs will get their shot at redemption at home against the Raiders, then travel to play the Pittsburgh Steelers, and then finish off their season against the San Diego Chargers. The reality is that, although the Raiders are a two-win team, they know what it takes to beat the Chiefs. The Steelers are playing strong football and it will be hard to stop Le’Veon Bell and that rushing attack considering how bad Kansas City’s run defense has been all year. Week 17 will be an important game, but by then, the Chiefs will likely have just eight wins.
