Dan Campbell's win streak against below .500 teams will be put to the test on Sunday
As the old football adage goes, "Any given Sunday." Or "Any given Thursday" if you're the New York Giants after a stunning upset of the Philadelphia Eagles.
No matter what history, talent, or the betting lines say, any team can emerge victorious in any game. That's especially true in the early part of the season, where records can form mirages. Being a below .500 team right now doesn't necessarily mean that the team is bad. The now 4-1 Detroit Lions were, at one point this season, a below .500 team themselves, after all.
On Sunday, the Kansas City Chiefs will enter their primetime game against the Lions as a below .500 team. It's a rare position for the Chiefs to be in, and few would be shocked if they, once again, reach the AFC Championship game. Right now, however, it's desperate times as they hope to avoid falling into a 2-4 hole.

The Detroit Lions enter Week 6 against the Kansas City Chiefs with a 4-1 record, sitting in first place atop the NFC North.
While the Lions look to nab their fifth consecutive win, head coach Dan Campbell knows it won't be easy to stop Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and Co., especially with a banged up secondary.
"First of all, he can smell a rat from a mile away," Campbell told reporters. "If you're going to disguise, boy it better be worthy of a Grammy. This guy sees it all… He can alter protections, he can get to different things in the passing game."
