Crazy NFL fact:
If the Kansas City Chiefs win their Divisional game, they will become the first team in history to host three straight AFC Championship Games.
The only team to do it in the NFC? The 2002-04 Philadelphia Eagles.
Both teams coached by ... Andy Reid.

Allen is a 1x All-Pro, 1x Pro Bowler w/ 15,765 yards with 117 TDs and 50 INTs (65 starts)

An idea:
Police officers should need a four-year degree in criminal justice. There should be mandatory courses in deescalation, mental health, coping, etc.

The Chiefs averaged 6.4 yards per play last night. All season, the Eagles allowed a league-best 4.8 yards per play.

Random thought, but worth noting:

Last night was the greatest game we've ever seen in terms of quarterback play.

Digging into the Chiefs' situation, I think it's basically the following:
