What must the Kansas City Chiefs do to reach the Super Bowl?

The Kansas City Chiefs are likely to make the playoffs in 2016. It’s not much of a stretch to say if the team is healthy, it will find itself playing football in January. However, the question here is what must the Chiefs do to play in February?

Kansas City has made the playoffs in two of the last three seasons, both times as a No. 5 seed. It’s always rough to win on the road, especially come playoff time. It seems that for the Chiefs to have a real shot of going to the Super Bowl, they need to win the division.

But what else? Is winning the division and getting at least one home game enough? Do you think the Chiefs could go on the road in the postseason and win a pair of contests against teams like the Cincinnati Bengals, Pittsburgh Steelers and New England Patriots?

Personally, I believe Kansas City has to get a BYE. The Chiefs would at least be guaranteed of reching the Divisional Round and would then get one of the four lower seeds, coming into Arrowhead Stadium against a rested Kansas City team.

What say you, Addicts? What will it take for the Chiefs to have a realistic shot to reach Houston in February?
