1+ min ago (312+ words) Following their loss to the Cowboys in Dallas on Thanksgiving Day, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes shared a harsh reality regarding the team's playoff hopes. "You've got to win every game now -- and hope that's enough," Mahomes said. "We're going to play a lot of good teams coming up," Mahomes said. "If we're going to make the playoffs, we're going to have to win them all. That's got to be the mindset when we step into the [training facility] when we get back."

Now, after they fell flat against a Cincinnati defense that had been atrocious for most of the season, there's no denying the Ravens have a problem. And Jackson is a significant part of it.
