For the first time in 11 years, the Kansas City Chiefs will not be playing in the NFL playoffs. The bad news doesn’t stop there: superstar quarterback Patrick Mahomes sustained a season-ending injury in last weekend's loss to the San Diego Chargers. The situation has some fans wondering if this is the end of the dynasty, or just a fluke of a season.

KCUR's Up To Date host Steve Kraske took those seemingly existential questions to Patrick Allen, VP of content and strategy for Fansided and co-host of the Arrowhead Addict podcast.
