Pro Football Network: Chiefs 33, Steelers 16

Ben Rolfe writes: "We saw this game in Week 16 and it was not pretty. Only losing by 26 points in that matchup somewhat flattered the Steelers, and that should be the case again. The Chiefs are not perfect right now, but this is an odd game to have picked as the Sunday Night Football offering. Quite frankly, this line being under two touchdowns is generous. There is every chance it moves during the week, and even if it gets above two touchdowns, the Chiefs might still be the play. Try not to get too excited Steelers fans, as the chances of a fairy tale ending for Ben Roethlisberger are slim in this matchup."

College Football News: Chiefs 34, Steelers 16

Pete Fiutak writes: "No one’s going to give the Steelers any prayer of hanging around considering they slipped in – more like the Colts choked their way out – and lost 36-10 in Arrowhead in Week 15. And everyone will be right. The Steelers will come out fired up, Kansas City will be a little sleepy to start, and it’ll seem like a shocker might be in the works after the first quarter, and then the Chief running game will settle things down and the Patrick Mahomes and the passing attack will follow."

Bleacher Report: Chiefs 34, Steelers 21

Maurice Moton writes: "The Steelers don't have the offensive firepower or the defense to keep pace with the Chiefs. Going into Week 18, they ranked 21st in scoring and 22nd in points allowed. On Sunday, Pittsburgh scored just 16 points in an overtime battle with the Baltimore Ravens, who had given up the most passing yards heading into the contest. Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger hasn't thrown for more than 159 yards in an outing since Week 14. He'll likely play his last game for Steelers next week as Pittsburgh goes down in a double-digit loss at Arrowhead Stadium. The Chiefs will beat the Steelers convincingly for the second time in four weeks;."

Fansided: Chiefs 36, Steelers 17

Gil Alcaraz IV writes: "Look for the Chiefs to get after Ben Roethlisberger early and often, forcing the aging gunslinger to make plays under pressure. Kansas City will also get their offense rolling early, forcing the Steelers to play catch-up all game long. Despite Pittsburgh’s solid defense, I don’t see them having enough to keep Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, and Travis Kelce contained. It’s been a rollercoaster ride for the Steelers this season — they’re lucky to even be in the postseason. As for the Chiefs, they’ve spent the last three months proving they’re one of the teams to beat as the playoffs get underway. Kansas City starts their campaign for a third-straight Super Bowl appearance run with a big win at Arrowhead Stadium."
