The Chiefs most important games not on K.C.’s schedule
By Byron Smith
Week 15: Denver Broncos @ Buffalo Bills
Both of these teams will likely be jockeying for positioning in the playoffs, with the Buffalo Bills as the likely winners of the AFC East and the Broncos fighting for a wild card spot. This could very likely also be a first round playoff game, which makes this game even more important in the AFC.
The Broncos have already been discussed as a team with a still solid defense paired with an potentially impressive young offense. The Bills are one step ahead with one of the league’s most feared defensive units as they also try to form a solid offense around Josh Allen’s big arm. Wide receiver Stefon Diggs is the shiny new addition as they hope to take a leap forward.
The Chiefs could very easily be matched up with one of these two teams in either the wild card or divisional rounds of the playoffs, meaning the outcome of this game could be vital for K.C. could be planning for the playoffs. Seeing how the coaches prepare for a playoff-caliber matchup, watching which players show up in clutch situations, and observing how things shake out should all be on the Chiefs’ radar come Week 15.
