From the very beginning, it was clear the Chiefs were not going to make a playoffs run this year. In fact, I thought they were the worst team in the league after two games.
And since someone had to win the AFC West, I suppose beating the division champion at home to give them their 8th loss is as good as it gets.
Having Tebow back his way into the playoffs might actually be a good thing. As I think it cements his position for another two years at least, and I think that's good for the Chiefs. I do think he's a good football player, but he's not a good quarterback/passer.
I've probably said this before, but look at the recent Super Bowl Champions and look at the top teams this year. You need a Rodgers, Brees, Brady, Manning. At least a Roethlisberger, who's played pretty well when healthy.
So I'm fine with Tebow being the quarterback of the future for Denver.
And I think it's hilarious that the Raiders panicked and spent a #1 pick on Carson Palmer. Even if he wasn't as terrible as I expected, he's not going to help them moving forward, especially when they seemed like they had a good thing going with Campbell.
And it's nice to see the Chargers waste another year of Rivers in his prime with Gates. So funny to think that five years ago they had LT, Turner, and Sproles in the backfield. They still have a good back, but they've really underachieved.

Also, it's pretty retarded that the Ravens and Steelers are both 12-4 in the same division, yet one is a 2 seed with a bye before a home game next week, and the other is a 5 seed playing on the road this week.
I'm fine with division winners getting an automatic berth, but it's silly to make them automatically the 4th seed. Pitt should be #3, Denver #6, so that game would be in Pittsburgh.
On the other side, Giants should be the 6th seed, Lions 5th, Falcons 4th, Saints 3rd.
So the Giants should be on the road in New Orleans, while the Lions visit Atlanta. The current setup hurts Detroit and Atlanta, while helping New York.
