The Kansas City Chiefs have enjoyed a late season week of rest and recuperation, a key for the final stretch run before the Super Bowl. The rigors of the regular season have now concluded, and every player is, in some way, fighting injuries and/or fatigue. Hence the reason why a bye week has proven to be so helpful for teams wanting to play in the Super Bowl.
Unfortunately for the Houston Texans, the AFC’s fourth overall seed is coming in bruised and battered. Not only did the Texans have to play and defeat the Buffalo Bills in the Wild Card round but they played nearly another full quarter of football in overtime.
