Chiefs drop to fourth place in Pete Prisco’s power rankings

CBSSports.com columnist Pete Prisco gave the #Chiefs the fourth spot in his latest NFL power rankings heading into Week 12.

The Kansas City Chiefs’ loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football cost them the top spot in the AFC playoff standings, and knocked the team down in the power rankings of many NFL analysts heading into Week 12.

CBSSports.com columnist Pete Prisco put Kansas City in the fourth spot in his latest power rankings behind the Eagles, Detroit Lions, and Dallas Cowboys. The Chiefs were the only AFC team to appear in the top five, though the conference dominated the second tier in the sixth through tenth sports.

Kansas City wasn’t expected to rise in the rankings after their brutal defeat at the hands of Philadelphia this week, but the drop is still sure to sting for many fans who hoped a loss to the NFL’s top team wouldn’t cause a slide for the team in the eyes of the media.

The Chiefs will have their chance at redemption in Week 12 when they travel to Sin City to take on the Las Vegas Raiders.

Chiefs HC Andy Reid tied Tom Landry on NFL’s all-time regular season wins list

#Chiefs head coach Andy Reid tied Tom Landry for fourth place on the NFL’s all-time regular season win list on Sunday night.

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid secured his 250th regular season win on Sunday night against the New York Jets. That mark ties legendary Dallas Cowboys skipper Tom Landry for the fourth-most all-time in NFL history and is yet another feather in Reid’s cap heading into the meat of Kansas City’s 2023 schedule.

Regular season wins are hard to come by in the modern NFL, and Reid has proven to be among the most adept coaches in the game at racking them up over the course of his career with the Chiefs.

The team’s victory on Sunday marked his 120th regular season win as Kansas City’s head coach, a mark that sits at second place in Chiefs franchise history behind the incomparable Hank Stram, who has 124.

With any luck, Reid will be able to beat Stram’s record later this year as Kansas City looks to defend its Super Bowl title.
