Arrowhead Pride
On Sunday, the (6-6) Kansas City Chiefs will host the (7-5) Houston Texans on GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in a pivotal Week 14 matchup. The “Sunday Night Football” kickoff is scheduled for 7:20 p.m. Arrowhead Time on NBC — locally on KSHB/41.
According to FanDuel Sportsbook, Kansas City has opened as a 4.5-point favorite in the game.
In Week 16 last year, the Chiefs opened as 3-point favorites against the Texans, winning that game 27-19. The Chiefs are coming off a 31-28 road defeat to the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving — a game for which they opened as 3.5-point favorites. In Week 13, the Texans started the week as a 3.5-point road underdog to the Indianapolis Colts, but earned a 20-16 win.
The Chiefs enter Sunday’s matchup with a season’s worth of urgency. It’s a true must-win — the kind that shapes January. A stumble here would force Kansas City to navigate a crowded AFC field, rely on outside help and put their seven-year run of AFC Championship appearances in even more jeopardy. Meanwhile, a Houston win would keep it firmly in the hunt for the AFC South title.
