The Kansas City Chiefs are inevitably in another must-win scenario entering Sunday's game. It comes against the Indianapolis Colts. For most people, Indianapolis was not seen as a serious threat entering this season. But with how the Colts have started things in 2025, they are well on their way to their first playoff appearance since 2020.
The Colts have also generally been a source of pain and heartbreak for the Chiefs over the years. Patrick Mahomes' first career playoff victory did come against Indianapolis. It was Kansas City's first home playoff win since the 1993 season, when the Chiefs beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in January 1994.
