The 7th seed will not have 5 losses.
Indy is done. They will have 7 or more losses.
Houston already has 5 losses. They will likely drop at least one more with that bad offense.
One of Jacksonville, Buffalo or the Chargers will finish the season 2-2.
In that scenario not even the 6th seed has 5 losses…
The NFL needs to figure this out or they will have a Bill Masterton situation on their hands. Higgins had just returned from a concussion and had 2 bad head blows in this game.
The only chance the Chiefs have is Colts and Chargers collapse. Which isn’t impossible because the Colts just lost their starting QB, and the Chargers QB just had surgery for a broken hand.
It’s a weird season where the first wild card team will probably have the easiest matchup (8-9 or 9-8 division winner, probably Steelers).
The 2nd seed will have to play the Chargers, Jaguars, Texans, Colts, or Bills most likely.
He also fumbled against the Dolphins when it looked like the Bills were finally putting a drive together.
A pessimist might say his career-high touches are leading to this and it will continue.
An optimist will say sometimes fumbles happen in bunches and it doesn’t indicate more fumbles in the future.
I don't really understand why KC isn't better. Just on paper it seems like they have a top-5 defense and all the pieces on offense to be a playoff team. They are underperforming IMO.
