In 1971, 1995, 1997, and 2003, the Chiefs went unbeaten at home throughout the regular season, but lost in the opening round of the playoffs (at home) all four times. In 1969, the Chiefs had lost one home game (to the Raiders, 27-24), but went on to win the 4th Super Bowl. You can ask yourself "what's up with that?", but there really is no logical explanation.
Point is, that maybe losing to the Bucs and Titans at home this season isn't such a bad thing, as it may appear at first glance.
One more thing, if the Chiefs can win the opening round playoff this year & assuming the Pats do the same, going up to NE is going to be a challenge, but NE's 2 losses this season just so happened to be in NEW ENGLAND (Pats were 8-0 on the road). So there is hope. Let the post-season games begin.
