NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports Chiefs LT Orlando Brown's calf injury is "minor." Brown suffered the injury in pre-game warmups ahead of Week 17 and did not play. Rapoport reports he underwent an MRI that revealed a minor injury. It is unclear if Brown will be ready for the season finale, but he likely will be good to go for the playoffs.

Not getting guys hurt and some healing. But you are correct they probably dont want to slide. Yet it is the Broncos who have nothing to play for. Maybe a few back ups win anyway.

Next week Tenn plays early slot and KC plays the later slot so KC may be able to rest some guys if Tenn has already won.

TThe Kansas City Chiefs knew they were going to have to do some rewiring along the offensive line going forward after losing two tackles to start their game against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 17. When it comes to the loss of Lucas Niang, it’s going to be a season-ending loss that creates doubt around the position in the short-term and the long-term. When Niang first went down early in the first quarter for the Chiefs, he required a cart to get off the field, a sign that the injury was indeed serious. After the game, head coach Andy Reid informed reporters that he tore his patellar tendon—an injury that requires an extensive amount of rehabilitation to return to the field. It’s also something that might keep Niang from coming back to full strength at all.

Tampa last year wild card. Chiefs play well on the road. Home field in todays NFL does not seem to be as big an advantage as in the past.

So you dont think KC was out coached? 3 points?

And some very questionable calls mostly on third down stops did not help.

No doubt the defense was hurt by some very questionable calls. Chiefs radio was having a hard time not screaming about it. Ward was just one of many Dbs that got beat.

Fenton was too. Like I said they have lots of really good weapons. Two sacks first 5 plays. A couple more but not when it was needed most.

So maybe thats why he gambled? Wanted to prevent any gain so they would not get 3. Do you think Reid could say do this or that? Maybe.

Were they almost out of field goal range on 3rd and 27?

There are no true #1 teams in the AFC. KC was not a great #1 either. Certainly would have lost to GB if Rogers played. I think we saw what good offenses can do to the KC defense today. Offense will need to win in the play offs.

KC had a great streak. They should, but wont , rest their starters next week.

Yep. Team out coached in all areas in the second half.

Still only 3 points.

They have lots of weapons. You double him and someone else is open. Offense shit the bed in a shoot out.

Its crazy to think its a conspiracy. Part time refs. Never ever anyone blowing the whistle. Never. In todays world someone would make a billion dollars with that proof. Never even a single leak or recording leaked.

The Hill drop. Lots of bad plays by KC. Refs were clearly pathetic but the story is 28 first half and 3 second half. Hard to understand.

They should have scored a TD. KC still in it.

Offense also lost this game. Complete crap second half against a lousy defense.

KC has 3 points so far. That is on the offense. If Cinn wins its a win they should be thrilled with.

They should feel good. They have played well. They dont make the calls. Geez they have torched the KC secondary and KC has 3 points so far in the second half. They have play makers.

Careful the Panty Patrol will call you out.

Chiefs deserve to lose regardless of calls That was pathetic.
