The New York Jets, meanwhile, were a sideshow and trainwreck, with expectations higher for comedy than a winning record.

The mighty Kansas City Chiefs fell for the first time this season when they lost last week against the Broncos. Still, their 9-1 record keeps them tied for first place in the AFC West, and they’re headed home today for a 1pm EST / 10am PST game against the 4-6 San Diego Chargers, losers of
