Kansas City has earned a first round playoff bye after securing the No. 1 seed in the AFC.

They will have to win two more games their Arrowhead Stadium home to book a spot in Super Bowl LIX.

The Chiefs are aiming to become the first team in NFL history to win three straight Super Bowls.

But Reid told his stars to look only at the division round of the playoffs next weekend.

“The important thing is to stay focused on the team in hand.

“It’s important as coaches we know all these teams and put together a game plan which the players can execute.

“If you start getting caught up in the what ifs and all that, you get into trouble.

“You’ve just got to take the next one, play your best and see how the chips fall.

“If anything gets in the way of that, you’ve got to get rid of it because it’ll hinder you rather than help you.”

The Chiefs will play their division round game on January 18 or 19.
