When the NFL schedule was first released, it seemed Sunday’s Chiefs-Bills game could decide seeding for the playoffs.

That still may be the case, just not in the way we envisioned seven months ago. At that time, it was no stretch to think Sunday’s winner might have an excellent chance of being the No. 1 seed in the postseason field.

That’s still true for the Chiefs, but they’ve lost two of their last three and will need help to get that top spot. However, Buffalo has a 6-6 record and its chances of making the playoffs are hanging in the balance.

There might be a wisp of desperation to Sunday’s game, which CBS Sports will likely note in its coverage. Most of the nation will see the Chiefs-Bills contest, and the network’s top NFL team will call the game: Jim Nantz, Tony Romo and Tracy Wolfson.
