The Denver Broncos are on their bye in Week 10 and that allowed the Kansas City Chiefs to pass them thanks to their win and some tiebreakers.
The Broncos and Chiefs each have a head-to-head win so it moves to the divisional record tiebreaker. Kansas City is 3-1 in the AFC West while the Broncos are only 2-1 at this point. The Chiefs are atop the AFC West!
The Jacksonville Jaguars and Chiefs are tied at 7-2, but Jacksonville has a 6-2 AFC record and they are behind K.C. The Bengals and Steelers both
have worse AFC records even if they win on Sunday night, so both will be behind the Chiefs and Jaguars in fourth place.
Tthe Buffalo Bills won to stick in first place. A big showdown is coming on Thanksgiving night.
The Cleveland Browns won and the New England Patriots lost to swap spots in the wild card. Cleveland is in and New England is out.
