On Oct. 25, the Royals were just days from opening the World Series at Kauffman Stadium.

A group of players and manager Ned Yost took in the Chiefs’ game against Pittsburgh that day at Arrowhead Stadium. The Chiefs were 1-5 at the time and the prospect of making the playoffs was dim.

The Chiefs haven’t lost since. On Sunday, they clinched a playoff berth with a 17-13 win over the Browns.

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid spoke on Monday about the team's playoff seeding as the Chiefs enter the final week of the 2015 NFL regular season. VIDEO BY DAVID EULITT deulitt@kcstar.com
