Kansas City: The Chiefs are on a roll! They just beat the Texans 27-19, and it was a nail-biter as usual. Patrick Mahomes looked good despite a recent ankle scare, scoring a touchdown early on.
The Texans fought back, with CJ Stroud throwing some impressive passes, including a touchdown to Dalton Schultz. But things took a turn when Tank Dell got hurt. That really shook up Houston, and they struggled to recover.
The Chiefs have this knack for winning close games, and this one was no different. They had a long drive in the fourth quarter that kept the pressure on the Texans. Even though they only got a field goal, it was enough to keep Houston at bay.
With this win, the Chiefs are now 14-1 and have a solid shot at clinching the top seed in the AFC. If they can beat the Steelers next week, they’ll be in a great position heading into the playoffs.
It’s wild to think they could end up with a 16-1 record. That would be something special, even if it’s not the same as the perfect 16-0 season the Patriots had back in 2007. But hey, winning is winning, right?
