With a No. 3 seed, the Chiefs have their worst playoff starting position since Patrick Mahomes became the quarterback in 2018. That likely means they’ll have their most difficult path, beginning with Saturday’s home game against the Miami Dolphins.

On SportsBeat KC, The Star’s sports podcast, beat writer Jesse Newell and columnists Vahe Gregorian break down the Chiefs chances and discuss the matchup that includes a return to Kansas City for Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill.

Which Chiefs team shows up in what’s supposed to be frigid conditions? The one that seemed to find its offensive rhythm two weeks ago against the Cincinnati Bengals and have played rugged defense all season, or the one that can’t avoid the giveaways?

No better time than the playoffs for the Chiefs to find the best version of themselves.
