0:00.0	Week 15 in the NFL. How did we get here so quickly? Larry Hartstein, R.J. White, Will Brinson,
0:12.4	Claudio Valfada with you here on the Early Edge, brought to you by BetMGM, make it legendary,
0:17.9	and the playoff picture coming into focus. Some of the teams eliminated. The Giants
0:22.9	were the first squad a few weeks ago. They've been joined by some others. Not too surprising.
0:27.5	What is surprising though, guys, is some of the teams on the outside looking in right now,
0:32.1	some of the Super Bowl favorites heading into this season. We have the Lions, we have the Ravens,
0:36.7	the Colts who start off hot, and the Chiefs,
0:39.9	who in some scenarios could be eliminated from the playoffs this week.
0:45.0	We'll get to what that specific scenario is.
0:48.2	You see the division leaders with the Broncos.
0:50.4	That was a surprise.
0:51.3	The Pat surprised everybody.
0:53.1	The Jags, the Steelers, those squads in the hunt. Not something we expected, RJ. Yeah, it's shocking. We could have a playoffs without the Ravens and Chiefs, and we will have a playoffs without the Chiefs if they lose.

1:10.9	Chargers this week.
1:12.0	Larry, it's crunch time. A lot of these teams obviously have that extra edge of motivation. How do you feel heading into Week 15? I think the Chiefs could very well win out there. Two tough games are at home against the Chargers and Broncos. They have easy games on the road. You know, if Rashie Rice can catch the ball,
1:27.6	Travis Kelsey can catch the ball.
1:29.1	They can easily win out to get to 10 and 7,
1:31.7	and then they need some help,
1:32.8	but it's not so unrealistic for them to be back in the playoffs.
1:36.9	And, Will, your Rams bounced back in a big way last week.
1:40.7	How are you feeling?
1:42.1	I'm actually no longer a Rams fan.
