Texans and Chiefs AFC Division Showdown Odds, Schedule, and Prognostications
Houston Texans to Face Kansas City Chiefs in AFC Divisional Round
The Houston Texans and the Kansas City Chiefs will square off in the AFC Divisional Round of the Playoffs on Saturday, January 18, 2025, at 4:30 p.m. ET. The game will take place at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri.
Although specific TV or streaming broadcast details for this exact playoff game are not explicitly mentioned, fans can catch the action live via NFL Game Pass, which typically offers comprehensive coverage of playoff games.
The Houston Texans are no strangers to the playoffs, having made it to the Divisional Round under the guidance of their head coach, DeMeco Ryans, who was hired in 2023. In his first year at the helm, Ryans led the Texans to the Divisional Playoffs, and in his second year, he has done it again.
In their previous game against the LA Chargers, the Texans were underdogs but emerged victorious with a score of 32:12. The Texans' defense was particularly impressive, intercepting four passes from the Chargers' quarterback. Offensively, they performed well, but it's predicted they may not perform as effectively against the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Chiefs, on the other hand, have had a successful season, securing the No. 1 seed in the AFC despite not being as impressive as in the last two campaigns. Led by quarterback Patrick Mahomes, they will present a formidable challenge for the Texans. In their last meeting, the Chiefs beat the Texans 27:19.
The Chiefs have had the upper hand against the Texans since the start of the decade, with every meeting resulting in a Chiefs victory. However, the Texans will be determined to change that this time around.
Two of the Chiefs' touchdowns in their last game against the Texans came through running the ball, showcasing their potent offensive capabilities. The Chiefs have also had an extra week to prepare for this game, as they had a bye in the first week of the postseason.
The Chiefs have been dominant in recent years, winning the Super Bowl in the last two seasons. With their home turf advantage, they are favourites to win the AFC Divisional Round Game. The prediction is that they will win by at least 9 points. (Pick: Kansas City Chiefs -9)
However, the Texans, under the leadership of DeMeco Ryans, have shown they are a team to be reckoned with. With their defensive prowess and determination, they will be aiming to cause an upset in Kansas City.
The game promises to be an exciting and closely contested encounter, with both teams eager to advance to the next round. Fans can tune in to NFL Game Pass to catch all the action live.
