The Kansas City Chiefs have a big game tonight, as they battle the Houston Texans for playoff positioning.
If the Chiefs lose, they will fall to 6-7 on the season, which is a shocking record for a team that has been to five Super Bowls in the last seven seasons. However, this would also make Kansas City a potential meme team this year.
The numbers 6-7 have gone viral on the internet among the younger generations, and has recently made its way to the mainstream. Therefore, any team with a 6-7 record is at risk at becoming a meme itself this year.
Here's a breakdown of why the Chiefs could go viral with a loss.

Which NFL teams are 6-7?
Only two teams in the NFL are 6-7 heading into Sunday night's game: the Miami Dolphins and the Baltimore Ravens. Both teams started the season slowly, but have since played much better football, as Baltimore won five of its last seven and Miami has won four straight games.
Additionally, the Dallas Cowboys are 6-6-1, so a loss next week would make Dallas a possible meme at 6-7-1, although the tie certainly dampens that idea.
Kansas City Chiefs
The Chiefs enter Week 14's "Sunday Night Football" matchup at 6-6, running the risk of dropping to under.500 yet again this season.
Kansas City's bump 2025 campaign has been Patrick Mahomes' worst with the franchise, and a seventh loss would mark the most losses on a season for the Chiefs in the Mahomes era. Andy Reid's team is hoping to avoid falling victim to the 6-7 meme with a win against the Texans.
Miami Dolphins
The Dolphins picked up their sixth win of the season in Week 14, beating the Jets for their fourth victory in a row, improving to 6-7 on the season.
Reaching six wins seemed unlikely when Miami started out 1-6, but Mike McDaniel's crew has tuned things around in the second half.
Baltimore Ravens
The Raven were hoping to improve to 7-6 and control the AFC North with a win over the Steelers on Sunday. Instead, Baltimore floundered and dropped to 6-7.
Lamar Jackson and Co. Got out to an ugly start to the season at 1-5, but a five-game winning streak put them back over.500. However, back-to-back losses have moved them to 6-7.

What does 6-7 mean?
It's unclear exactly where the 6-7 meme originated, but it has spread online to a large degree. Essentially, it appears to mean nothing, which itself means that it can be used in any situation. The younger generation uses the 6-7 meme in pretty much every situation, which is why it has become so popular.
