Week 10 of the NFL season is almost in the books, and the playoff picture is starting to take shape.

The Kansas City Chiefs blocked a field goal as time expired to beat the Denver Broncos on Sunday afternoon and remain undefeated on the year. They hold a commanding lead in the AFC West and are on pace to earn the bye in the AFC.

In the NFC, the Detroit Lions rallied back and put up 19 unanswered points to beat the Houston Texans 26-23 on Sunday night on a game-winning field goal. They’ve now won seven straight games and hold the top spot in the NFC. That win came despite quarterback Jared Goff throwing five interceptions.
