This is an interesting chart to check from time to time. Take a look at the far column in the right which shows how much % change each team took from just the result of the first game. I think this game against KC would have a bigger negative if we lose than the positive we will gain from it from winning. Since it's an AFC game it won't change much and we will be in the same relative lead for WC, but if we lose then by not raising our win total we will in a sense give up the WC advantage we just gained from winning the first one. So I think a loss would cost us most of the 17% we gained, whereas a win should prop us up by a chunk less than 17 and possibly a very small number.
