| (MySportsbook) - The Kansas City Chiefs have fought hard to get back in the AFC playoff picture, and it would be a shame if they threw it all away this past weekend in Cleveland. It's no secret that the Chiefs are a much better team at home than on the road, but losing to the Browns anywhere is simply not a option for a team that wants to get to the postseason. What makes the loss even more heartbreaking for Kansas City is that it held a 28-14 lead over the Browns with just 12:19 to play in regulation. Clevela |

They have home games against two of the AFC's elite in Indianapolis and New England, and will travel to face the resurgent Tennessee Titans and the Kansas City Chiefs, one of the toughest homefield clubs in the NFL. The way the NFL has played out this year, the Jags are not the only team that has to battle inconsistency, so it might not even take a 4-0 finish to make the postseason. But then again, it's not a bad |

If Frye can't play, the Browns will turn to backup Derek Anderson, who came in and rallied them to a 31-28 overtime victory against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.
