Steelers Season Ends In Blowout Playoff Loss To Chiefs

The Pittsburgh Steelers’ season came to an end on Sunday night at Arrowhead Stadium, as the Kansas City Chiefs won their Wild Card Weekend matchup 42-21.

The Steelers won the coin toss and elected to receive, but they went three-and-out on their opening possession. WR Mecole Hardman returned the ball to the Chiefs 42 after a 21-yard punt return, and then RB Jerick McKinnon gained six yards on a first down carry, but a two-yard loss on a screen to Hardman was followed by a pass breakup by S Tre Norwood on third-and-eight and the Chiefs were forced to punt.
