Kansas City improved to 11-1 on the season with a 19-17 win over AFC West rival Las Vegas in a thrilling Black Friday showdown that came down to the wire - again.
The Chiefs have played in nine one-score games so far this season, winning all nine. In fact, the Chiefs have won 14-straight one-score games, setting a record for the most in NFL history.
Kansas City also clinched a playoff spot with the win, the team's 10th consecutive playoff appearance, which is second in NFL history. While there was plenty to celebrate on Friday night, head coach Andy Reid made it clear there's still work left to do.
"We gotta clean up just a few things and take care of some business here," Reid started in his postgame message to the team. "We do that, these penalties, man. We do that and we're gonna be in great shape. But we gotta take care of that stuff, men. And I mean those are the things we can control. Other than that, we're going to enjoy this win the best way we possibly can."

Then came Reid's warning for his players.
"And you to a little time here, so check your schedules. We'll get on a normal week next week," he said. "Check your schedules out. Use the time wisely. Stay out of trouble. And let's take a knee, man. But hold it! How 'bout those Chiefs!"
Over Kansas City's last four games, the Chiefs are 3-1, but those three wins have come by a combined seven points. The team will get a few extra days of rest heading into a "Sunday Night Football" showdown against Jim Harbaugh and the Los Angeles Chargers, who play the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday.
