The Kansas City Chiefs take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in the divisional round of the NFL playoffs. NBC has the kickoff at 8:20 p.m. Eastern live from Arrowhead Stadium. The game was originally scheduled to start at 1:05 p.m. but inclement weather caused the game to get pushed back.
Here’s the details for tonight’s game.
Date: Sunday, January 15, 2017
Time: 1:05 p.m. Eastern
Location: Arrowhead Stadium, Kansas City, Missouri
TV Channel: NBC
Line: Chiefs by 1.5 (Line is according to OddsShark and subject to change.)
Game Preview: The Chiefs take on the Steelers as slight favorites at home. It is a rematch of their Week 4 matchup where the Steelers came away with a 43-14 blowout victory.
Look for the Chiefs defense to try to put pressure on Ben Roethlisberger who is dealing with an ankle injury. Kansas City will have their hands full against a Steelers offense with plenty of weapons including Le’Veon Bell and Antonio Brown. The Chiefs have the advantage of hosting the game rather than traveling to Pittsburgh like they did in Week 4.
Kansas City has won five of their last six games and will be rested after their first round bye. Pittsburgh has won eight straight games and is coming off a dominant 30-12 victory over the Dolphins in the Wild Card round.
