From the Land of the Free and the Home of the Chiefs, this is the

locked on Chiefs podcast.

Welcome back to another Red Friday edition of Locked on Chiefs.

I am Chris Clark from Chiefs Digest. He is Ryan Tracy from RGR football. We have a lot to talk about this today. We are getting ready for this Denver Broncos game on Sunday and it is going to be a big game for Kansas City they need to win out to give themselves a chance

Uh, that is more likely than the number one seat at this point.

Yeah, and that's something to strive for.
