Chiefs prepare for Saturday’s postseason opener

ESPN/ABC, Sean McDonough, Jon Gruden, Lisa Salters (field reporter), Adam Schefter (field reporter). The teams have faced each other 51 times since then and the Chiefs hold the better series record at 29-22. The Chiefs were known as the Dallas Texans in 1962 when they beat Houston for the AFL championship.

Some important personnel changes since Week 1: The Chiefs no longer have safety Eric Berry, who shut down Rob Gronkowski before tearing his Achilles, and the Patriots recently added former Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison, who has dominated Kansas City left tackle Eric Fisher in recent years.

For more than half of the Titans roster, Saturday’s game against the Chiefs will be their first-ever playoff game.

The Chiefs are entering the post-season on a four-game winning streak. “We had some opportunities to make some plays”. The Chiefs gave the Giants one of their three wins, let the Jets’ Josh McCown throw for nearly 350 yards in a loss at MetLife, and had less than 250 yards of total offense in a loss to Buffalo.

There is plenty of history between the Tennessee Titans and Kansas City Chiefs dating all the way back to 1960.

In their past few meetings against Smith, the Titans have been able to get the quarterback to make uncharacteristic turnovers.

Titans at Chiefs news:Mahomes was given a year to acclimate. That leaves the Chiefs, Titans and Bills. And Coach Mike Mularkey will try to prove he was the right man for the job all along. That is a tall order, but Byard has proven trustworthy and has shown a knack for big plays in bunches this season. Will that be the Titans or the Chiefs are the answer we all are looking for. If the Titans are physical up front and if Wesley Woodyard and Avery Williamson are making their run fits, the Titans should have a fairly successful time slowing down the NFL’s leading rusher this season.

Vegas line as of Friday afternoon: Chiefs -9. “They played a big part of contributing to me getting 1,000 yards”.

Wide receiver Tyreek Hill was nestled comfortably in the womb. Mariota catches the defelction and dives into the end zone for a six-yard touchdown.

Marcus Mariota, the No. 2 overall pick in 2015, has yet to develop into a consistent franchise quarterback. They braved the cold and noise of Arrowhead previous year, and shocked many when they left with a 19-17 victory.

Kansas City’s defense thrives on turnovers, which have proven highly predictive of the team’s success this season.

The Chiefs were among the most penalized teams in the National Football League this season, getting flagged 118 teams. That is followed by NFL Countdown at 3 p.m. Tennessee is allowing just 88.8 yards per game on the ground and held Leonard Fournette to 69 yards last week.

Smith is trying to validate the best season of his career in what could be his final game for the Chiefs (10-6).
