Week 17 is a chaotic time in the NFL. Luckily for viewers of the Chiefs' win over the Chargers on Sunday, CBS announcer Kevin Harlan offered a helping hand.
Kansas City entered the day needing a win over Los Angeles and a New England loss to Miami to clinch a first-round bye in the AFC. With both games coming down to the wire, Harlan chipped in to provide play-by-play updates of both games as they unfolded.

This call is amazing, the crowd reaction is tremendous, the Chiefs player reaction is incredible. I love EVERYTHING about it. pic.twitter.com/imVO3B9IkJ
Just moments after Damien Williams tacked on a rushing touchdown to help seal the Chiefs' win, Harlan announced Ryan Fitzpatrick's go-ahead touchdown pass with 24 seconds remaining in the Dolphins' eventual 27-24 win over the Patriots.
To make things even better, the Arrowhead Stadium crowd roared shortly after Harlan's call, knowing that the Chiefs were just moments away from clinching the AFC's No. 2 seed.
Unsurprisingly, Harlan's dual-threat commentary was a hit for viewers.
"What game are you calling?"
