How to watch Chiefs vs. Bills today: Time, TV channel for AFC Championship Game

It’s #Chiefs vs #Bills in the AFC Championship Game. Here’s how to watch, including time, channel, TV schedule and streaming info.

The Kansas City Chiefs are closing in on earning their third-straight Super Bowl appearance but will face a final test on Sunday evening when they take on the Buffalo Bills in the AFC Championship Game.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen has put together arguably the best season of his career and will make life rough for the Chiefs’ defense if he uses his legs effectively. Expect defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo to limit Allen’s scrambling ability while bringing constant pressure against Buffalo’s front five.

Here’s how to watch Kansas City’s matchup against Buffalo, including time, TV schedule, and streaming information:

Chiefs vs Bills predictions, picks

Chiefs 23, Bills 20: The Chiefs are riding high after last week’s win, but will face a much tougher opponent in the Bills. Josh Allen is having an MVP-caliber season and can make light work of any defense with his ability to scramble. However, Kansas City’s defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo is a wizard with adjustments and will undoubtedly have a gameplan to stop Allen and the Bills’ offense, but it won’t be easy.

This game will most likely decide the winner of Super Bowl LIX. Allen has yet to beat Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes in the playoffs, and though this game will be incredibly close, the winless streak will not end today.

Chiefs vs Bills in NFL playoffs conference championships: Early prediction, recent matchup history

It’s #Chiefs vs. #Bills in the NFL playoffs: Bracket predictions for AFC Championship Game

The AFC’s field of playoff competitors has been whittled down to the top two teams by record: the Kansas City Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills.

Here are our early predictions for the AFC Championship Game.

Chiefs vs. Bills predictions

The Bills impressed in the wild-card and divisional rounds, but in their defeat of the Baltimore Ravens, which earned them entrance into this week’s AFC Championship Game, they made mistakes that could be costly if repeated against the Chiefs.

In comparison, Kansas City cruised through the divisional round, winning over the Houston Texans without doing anything surprising offensively. This means the Chiefs should have plays in store for this week that their opposition has yet to study.

Final score: Chiefs 27, Bills 20

Chiefs vs. Bills history, last five games

The Chiefs are 2-3 against the Bills in their last five games. What is important to note is that while Kansas City has not fared as well in regular season appearances facing Buffalo, they are undefeated against the Bills in recent postseason history. In Josh Allen’s tenure as Buffalo’s quarterback, the Bills are 0-3 against the Chiefs in the playoffs.

When will Chiefs play Bills in NFL playoffs?

The AFC Conference Championship Game is scheduled to kick off at 5:30 p.m. CST on Sunday, January 26. Fans can catch the action live on CBS and Paramount+.

Game preview, betting odds and prediction for Wisconsin basketball vs. UCLA

Game preview, betting odds and prediction for Wisconsin basketball vs. UCLA

Wisconsin basketball (15-3, 5-2 Big Ten) returns to the hardwood on Tuesday night for its second consecutive road matchup, this against the UCLA Bruins (12-6, 3-4 Big Ten).

The Badgers enter the contest after an impressive 84-69 win over the USC Trojans on Saturday. That result marked the fifth straight Big Ten win and the seventh straight triumph overall for Greg Gard’s team dating back to Dec. 14.

John Blackwell (28 points, five rebounds, two steals), Max Klesmit (18 points, four assists, two steals), Nolan Winter (13 points, five rebounds, three assists) and Kamari McGee (10 points, four assists, two steals) helped UW morph a three-point affair into a 15-point win during a late-game 29-17 scoring spurt.

The Bruins, meanwhile, enter Tuesday after a crucial 94-70 win over Iowa on Jan. 17. The win broke a four-game losing streak to Big Ten opponents and improved UCLA’s conference record to 3-4 on the season. The Bruins did post wins over No. 15 Oregon, Gonzaga and Arizona this season, but they are now just 4-6 in Quad 1 and Quad 2 games this season.

The Bruins are led by junior forward Tyler Bilodeau in scoring this season (14.6 points per game), but do not boast much offensive firepower anywhere else in the starting unit.

The tip is set for 9:30 p.m. ET, 8:30 p.m. CT and will be broadcast exclusively on Peacock. Here are the betting odds and a full preview of how the Badgers and Bruins match up.

  • F Tyler Bilodeau (14.6 points, 5.0 rebounds on 50.5% shooting)
  • F Eric Dailey Jr. (12.2 points, 4.2 rebounds on 52.8 shooting)

Wisconsin vs. UCLA prediction, pick

UCLA’s defense is no joke, and the Bruins have beaten three quality teams this season. Wisconsin, however, enters Tuesday’s bout with one of the most lethal offensive units in the country. All five scorers in UW’s starting five score at least 10 points per game, and the Badgers share the ball for roughly 15 assists per contest.

That well-rounded offensive attack, coupled with the team’s momentum from its current seven-game win streak, give it a great chance to exit UCLA with a win. If the game gets tight late, UW can lean on its nation-leading free throw percentage to counteract the Bruins’ stout defensive lineup.

Wisconsin’s two seven-footers should also lean on their size advantage against a much smaller UCLA front court on Tuesday. Given those trends and what the Badgers can present offensively, UW will win this game in tight fashion.

Prediction: Wisconsin 75, UCLA 71

How to watch Chiefs vs. Texans today: Time, TV channel for AFC Divisional Round

It’s #Chiefs vs #Texans in the NFL playoffs. Here’s how to watch, including time, channel, TV schedule and streaming info.

The 2024 NFL postseason is finally here, and the Kansas City Chiefs are set to play the Houston Texans in the divisional round of the AFC playoffs on Saturday, January 18.

After taking their first-round bye and getting some well-deserved rest, the Chiefs are in an excellent position to win their matchup against the Texans after defeating Houston in Week 16 of the regular season.

Not all factors will work in Kansas City’s favor, though. The Texans are hot after their blowout win over the Los Angeles Chargers last week, and second-year quarterback C.J. Stroud will make the Chiefs’ defense pay if given time to operate in the pocket.

Here’s how to watch Kansas City’s matchup against Houston, including time, TV schedule, and streaming information:

Chiefs vs Texans predictions, picks

The Chiefs are essentially coming off back-to-back bye weeks, so the defending Super Bowl champions will be primed for a good performance. Star quarterback Patrick Mahomes’ playoff persona will be in full effect on Saturday and should provide an easy route to victory for Kansas City.

Despite C.J. Stroud’s rock-solid performance against the Los Angeles Chargers last week, the former Buckeye has yet to perform well in a playoff atmosphere as daunting as Arrowhead Stadium. Stroud may be able to put together a good game, but he will most likely fall short of what is needed to take down the NFL’s top team.

Will Chiefs beat Texans in NFL playoff game? Case for, case against KC in divisional round

Here’s how the Kansas City #Chiefs could win — or lose — their divisional round playoff matchup against the Houston #Texans.

The Kansas City Chiefs and Houston Texans are set to face off in the divisional round of the AFC playoffs.

Here’s how Kansas City could win –– or lose –– its divisional-round contest against Houston.

How the Chiefs can win vs. Houston

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes should be able to exploit the Texans’ up-and-coming secondary in this game if Kansas City can effectively employ play-action passes into its air attack.

By keeping Houston’s defense off-balance, the Chiefs should be able to leverage their experience to make game-breaking plays in big moments.

How Chiefs might lose to Texans

Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud is among the NFL’s finest signal-callers and can make defenses pay if he isn’t pressured in the pocket. Should Kansas City’s pass rush falter against Houston’s front five, Stroud may be able to pick apart the Chiefs’ defensive backfield and run up the score.

Chiefs vs. Texans tickets

Tickets for the Kansas City Chiefs’ divisional-round playoff matchup against the Houston Texans can be purchased from StubHub.

Chiefs vs Texans in NFL playoffs divisional round: Early prediction, recent matchup history

It’s #Chiefs vs. #Texans in the NFL playoffs: Bracket predictions for divisional game

The No. 1 seed Kansas City Chiefs will play No. 4 seed Houston Texans in the divisional round of the AFC playoffs next week.

Here are our early bracket predictions for the matchup.

Chiefs vs. Texans predictions

Kansas City wrangled Houston in a Week 16 matchup earlier this season, and this next meeting isn’t likely to fare any different for the Texans. The Chiefs are the AFC’s No. 1 seed for a reason, and star quarterback Patrick Mahomes’ experience in the playoffs should help Kansas City prevail over Houston in this divisional-round showdown.

Final score: Chiefs 31, Texans 26

Chiefs vs. Texans history, last five games

Kansas City has won four of its last five matchups against Houston. The Chiefs’ last loss to the Texans came in 2019 when Houston defeated Kansas City 31-24.

When will Chiefs play Texans in NFL playoffs?

The NFL has not yet announced dates for its divisional-round playoff matchups. Two of the four divisional round games will be played on Saturday, January 18 while the others will kick off on Sunday, January 19.

Former Raiders, Buccaneers HC predicts Chiefs will win Super Bowl LIX

This week, a former Las Vegas #Raiders and Tampa Bay #Buccaneers head coach predicted that the Kansas City #Chiefs will win Super Bowl LIX.

The Kansas City Chiefs are set to take a first-round bye in the AFC playoffs after securing the No. 1 seed in the conference’s postseason bracket with a Week 17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day.

Though Kansas City’s starters will have taken nearly a month off between the Yuletide victory and their Divisional Round playoff contest, some experts are still bullish on the Chiefs’ ability to cruise to a third-consecutive Super Bowl victory.

This week, former Las Vegas Raiders and Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Jon Gruden officially predicted that Kansas City would complete the NFL’s first-ever three-peat and win Super Bowl LIX in a matchup against the Detroit Lions.

Though Gruden’s prediction didn’t include a final score, Chiefs fans are sure to be pleased that one of Kansas City’s former rivals is on the defending Super Bowl champions’ side heading into the postseason.

Stay tuned to see which team the Chiefs will face after the Wild Card weekend runs its course.

How to watch Chiefs vs. Broncos today: Time, TV channel for Week 18

It’s #Chiefs vs #Broncos in Week 18 of the 2024 NFL season. Here’s how to watch, including time, channel, TV schedule and streaming info.

The Kansas City Chiefs officially clinched the No. 1 seed for the AFC playoffs after their Week 18 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, and are now set to face the Denver Broncos in a highly anticipated regular-season finale at Mile High Stadium.

With a first-round bye and home-field advantage secured for the playoffs, the Chiefs are expected to rest their starters to avoid potential injuries ahead of the postseason.

The Broncos can clinch the seventh and final seed in the AFC playoff picture with a win over Kansas City on Sunday and will have the benefit of playing against backup quarterback Carson Wentz in front of a home crowd with their season on the line.

Wentz is a seasoned veteran with a Super Bowl win under his belt, but without some of Kansas City’s best players on the field, Denver may be able to pull out a win against the defending Super Bowl champions to punch their ticket to the playoffs.

Here’s how to watch the Chiefs’ Week 18 matchup with the Broncos, including time, TV schedule, and streaming information:

What channel is Chiefs vs Broncos game on today? Time, TV schedule

Chiefs vs Broncos predictions, picks

Chiefs 23, Broncos 31: The Chiefs’ Week 18 matchup against the Broncos is largely meaningless for the defending Super Bowl champions and will be treated more like a preseason game than a regular-season finale.

With a trip to the playoffs on the line, Denver is sure to pull out all the stops for a chance to take down their bitter AFC West rivals. Kansas City will certainly put up a fight, but with so many starters on the bench, the Broncos shouldn’t face much of a challenge.

How to watch Chiefs vs. Steelers today: Time, TV channel for Week 17

It’s #Chiefs vs #Steelers in Week 17 of the 2024 NFL season. Here’s how to watch, including time, channel, TV schedule and streaming info.

The Kansas City Chiefs seem to have finally put all the pieces together after their Week 16 victory over the Houston Texans but they will have to face a tough test against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day to secure the No. 1 seed in the AFC playoffs.

With a two-game lead over the Buffalo Bills in the playoff standings entering Week 17, Kansas City needs just one more win to earn a first-round bye and home-field advantage throughout the postseason.

The Steelers, who are currently in line for the No. 3 seed, won’t be an easy out at Acrisure Stadium.

Both teams are set to compete on short rest after the NFL’s unorthodox scheduling saw Kansas City and Pittsburgh play their last games on Saturday, December 21.

Here’s how to watch the Chiefs’ Week 17 matchup with the Steelers, including time, TV schedule, and streaming information:

Chiefs vs Steelers predictions, picks

Chiefs 23, Steelers 20: Everything seems to be falling into place for the Chiefs after their Week 16 win over Houston, but Pittsburgh will present a much tougher obstacle for the defending Super Bowl champions. Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson has revived his career after a disastrous 2023 campaign with the Denver Broncos. Still, he will need to put together a near-perfect performance to defeat Kansas City in this game.
