This game has the added dimension of being the rematch of January’s epic playoff game which the Chiefs rallied in stunning fashion to tie, and then went on to win 42-36 in overtime, a game that will forever be nicknamed “13 Seconds.”
Both teams enter the game with matching AFC-best 4-1 records, so the winner will gain the head-to-head tiebreaker advantage which could be vital at the end of the season.
