## Resource

The Chiefs are poised for a bounce-back 2026 season, fueled by Mahomes’ return to form and Rashee Rice’s breakout year—projected to win the AFC West for the 10th time in 11 years. But the simulation takes a brutal turn: they’re predicted to lose at home in the divisional round to the 5-seed Chargers, ending their playoff run despite a dominant regular season. The Chargers then go on to win the Super Bowl… only to fall to the Lions. A thrilling ride with a heartbreak finish.
