The Kansas City Chiefs clinched the top seed in the AFC with a resounding 29-10 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Patrick Mahomes threw for 320 yards and three touchdowns, while the Chiefs defense stifled the Steelers’ offense.
Mahomes connected with Xavier Worthy and Justin Watson for early scores, and the Chiefs defense sacked Russell Wilson five times and forced two turnovers. Travis Kelce surpassed 1,000 career receptions and scored a touchdown to seal the victory.
The Steelers, struggling with injuries and a recent losing streak, were unable to keep pace. Despite a late surge, they ultimately fell short against the defending Super Bowl champions.
This victory solidifies the Chiefs’ position as a top contender in the AFC playoffs.
Kansas City next heads to Denver, with a game date and time to be announced by the NFL.
