Kansas City: It’s shaping up to be another festive Christmas for the Chiefs. They’re the two-time Super Bowl champs and have the best record in the NFL this season. Sure, they’ve had their share of luck, but great teams know how to create their own breaks. Patrick Mahomes might not be having his best statistical year, but he’s still got 23 touchdown passes and seven game-winning drives under his belt. Not too shabby, right?
Now, they’re heading to Pittsburgh to face the Steelers, who have a solid defense ranked No. 3 in the league. This matchup could turn into a real defensive battle, especially since both teams are keeping opponents under 20 points per game. The Steelers are hoping to boost their offense with George Pickens back in action after missing three games due to a hamstring injury. They really need him, especially after losing two of those games.
The Chiefs have already clinched the AFC West title, and a win here would secure the top seed in the playoffs. On the flip side, the Steelers missed a chance to take the AFC North last week but can still grab the division if they win their last two games. It’s all on the line this Christmas!
