Chiefs will be looking to clinch playoff berth week 13 vs Raiders

Can the Raiders play spoilers this week? They shocked the world on Christmas Day last year, going to Arrowhead and beating the Chiefs. Now they go back to Arrowhead on (wait for it) BLACK Friday. And the Chiefs will have a playoff berth on their minds for the game.


A win alone over the Raiders won’t get the Chiefs in, but there are several scenarios that could punch their ticket, all involving either an AFC West team or the Miami Dolphins.


These are those scenarios:


KC win + MIA loss or tie

KC win + DEN loss

KC win + LAC loss + DEN tie

KC tie + MIA loss


The Dolphins look like the most likely of the three other teams to go down. They face the 8-3 Packers at Lambeau on Thanksgiving Day, so we might already know if the Chiefs will need any actual help by Thursday night.


Should the Dolphins win, and the Chiefs win, then it will be up to the Chargers who head to Atlanta to play the 6-5 Falcons on Sunday. And finally, it then falls to the Broncos who have the easiest go of it at home against the 3-8 Browns on Monday Night.


So, with the odds being that one of these teams will lose, it will be up to the Raiders as to whether the Chiefs are celebrating another playoff berth
