The Indianapolis Colts (8-2) lead the AFC South as they visit the Kansas City Chiefs (5-5) in NFL Week 12 action. The Chiefs are currently out of the AFC playoff picture.

In this week’s top-10 power rankings for Fox, Brady starts with the team that has made five of the last six Super Bowls, winning three.
“If you’re going to comment about the Chiefs being in the top 10, I want you to do something really quick,” Brady said. “Close your eyes. Visualize. It’s January, it’s cold out, and Patrick Mahomes has the ball with five minutes left. How do you think that story’s going to end?
“They’re just a cheat code for power rankings.”
He moves on to the rest of the top 10, and where are the Colts? Nowhere on this list.
