By MARK LONG AP Pro Football Writer JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — It’s a wonder the Jacksonville Jaguars won four games last season. Assistants bickering. Head coach Doug Pederson pointing fingers.

By DAVE SKRETTA AP Sports Writer KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs are getting healthier, deeper and more dynamic as the season presses on. The Baltimore Ravens?

By DAVE SKRETTA AP Sports Writer KANSAS CITY, Mo.

By ROB MAADDI AP Pro Football Writer The Kansas City Chiefs and Baltimore Ravens entered the season with Super Bowl-or-bust goals. One of them will be 1-3, unless they tie this week.

By DAVE SKRETTA AP Sports Writer KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs knew they would have to buy some time until Rashee Rice returned from his suspension.

By ROB MAADDI AP Pro Football Writer Tom Brady was finished. Bill Belichick couldn’t coach anymore. The New England Patriots’ run of dominance had ended. Those were the premature headlines and hot takes after the “We’re on to Cincinnati” game 11 years ago. Now, it’s the Chiefs hearing similar questions. The Patriots were destroyed by
