The No. 2-seeded AFC Chiefs host the No. 7-seeded Steelers on Sunday night for their wild-card playoff game.
The Steelers visited Kansas City just a few weeks ago, losing 36-10 in a blowout game. Since then, the Steelers have won their next two games helping them to the playoffs. What sealed the deal for Pittsburgh to capture the seventh seed was the combination of the Jaguars beating the Colts and the Raiders beating the Chargers last Sunday.
This could potentially be Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger’s last game as a Steeler. The 39-year-old has not made his retirement official, but has hinted that this is his final season.
The Chiefs opened as 12.5-point favorites, making the Steelers the biggest losers in NFL playoff history.
