7. Kansas City Chiefs

Being a Kansas City Chiefs fan has to be rough when seeing how the team always seems to look like a Super Bowl contender heading into the playoffs, only to fall short of reaching the big game each time. This year was no different for Andy Reid and company after falling just short of reaching the AFC Championship following a heartbreaking loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

What made the loss even more difficult to accept was the fact that Kansas City prevented Pittsburgh from scoring a single touchdown that game, and they still ended up on the losing side. It’s never easy for a defense to prevent a dangerous offense like the Steelers from scoring a touchdown, so the Chiefs’ defense deserves plenty of credit for the way they played in this one.

Really, it’s a shame the Chiefs’ offense couldn’t come through on their end with a better performance against the Steelers at Arrowhead. One of these days, Kansas City is going to finally get over the hump by finally reaching the AFC Championship, but they better figure out a way to do it soon since the talent is certainly there on both sides of the football to remain contenders.
