Chiefs prepare a late holiday surprise for Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce to have a shot at history..

The Kansas City Chiefs have been afforded a luxury that only a couple teams get each year in the NFL: rest.

That priceless commodity was secured after the Chiefs defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day to wrap up the #1 seed and home field advantage throughout the AFC playoffs, which begin next month.

But despite their 15-1 record, Kansas City will have question marks entering the playoffs, irrespective of its result in Week 18 against the division rival Denver Broncos.

The Chiefs have won a high-number of one-score games this season, to the point where the team’s critics have derided their style of playing and winning as “unsustainable”. Knowing the Chiefs, head coach Andy Reid and general manager Brett Veach will be looking for any marginal advantage possible in order to pursue a Super Bowl “three-peat”.

If and when the Miami Dolphins are eliminated from playoff contention, the league will be on high alert as to the status of veteran defensive tackle Calais Campbell — who reached the Super Bowl as a rookie with the Arizona Cardinals in 2008 but has never lifted the Vince Lombardi Trophy.

Campbell, 38, has been selected to six Pro Bowls and three All-Pro teams in his excellent career, and he is third among all active players in career quarterback sacks. Omar Kelly of the Miami Herald has reported that the Chiefs, the Detroit Lions, and the Minnesota Vikings all would have interest in Campbell should the Dolphins release him following Sunday’s game against the Cleveland Browns.

Adding Campbell to a pass rush that already includes Chris Jones and George Karlaftis would bolster the Chiefs’ defense and give Kansas City’s playoff opponents even more to fear, besides an offense that has superstars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce. But even if Campbell heads to the NFC instead, the Chiefs continue to look for any win they can get in terms of personnel so that it will translate onto the gridiron when it matters most.
