Considering that Carolina just came off not one, but two Super Bowls, a letdown is not exactly shocking.
The Chiefs on the other hand don't have that issue, even though this is a sandwich game between two games against the Broncos.
As far as the possibility of Miami winning goes, consider this: that improves the chances of the Jets missing the playoffs.

If the Texans cannot beat Jacksonville, then how much of a fallout is there? Andre Johnson is only due $6.5 million next year, and moving him has minimal cap savings ($580k), but his non-committal dig at the question of whether or not he was happy and wanted to continue playing for the Texans could motivate ownership to try and trade him before the draft.
