Welcome to the Week 15 grades!
The NFL playoff race is in full swing, and there are several big games on the Week 15 schedule that will have a huge impact on who makes the postseason and who doesn't. Speaking of who won't make the postseason, the most surprising news of the day is that the Kansas City Chiefs have been eliminated from playoff contention.
That's right, Patrick Mahomes will not be in the playoffs. Travis Kelce will not be in the playoffs. The team that has made it to seven straight AFC title games will not be in the playoffs.
With the Chiefs out, the means the AFC is WIDE OPEN this year.
