Earlier this year, the NFL increased playoff spot in the AFC and NFC from 6 to 7. because of this, 14 teams will qualify for the postseason at the completion of the regular season.

Who are the Table Toppers in AFC? Will the KC Chiefs qualify for NFL playoffs?

In the AFC, Tennessee Titans and Buffalo Bills are ruling AFC South and AFC East, respectively. As far as AFC North and AFC West is concerned, Cincinnati Bengals and the Las Vegas Raiders have the best records. Meanwhile, Patrick Mahomes‘ Kansas City Chiefs are languishing in third in AFC West.

Before the season, very few would have expected the Chiefs and Mahomes to look this bad, but here we are. We’ve rarely seen the Chiefs look as terrible as they do right now. A 3-4 start for a squad that had gone 38-8 in Mahomes’ previous starts seemed improbable. The thought that the Chiefs would not make the playoffs because of poor performance rather than a string of injuries was ridiculous, but if this continues, it wouldn’t remain a ridiculous thought.

While each team will hope for a trip to SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, in February 2022, the few mentioned above have the highest chances.
