The Kansas City Chiefs have added a fifth game to their winning streak with a Week 16 victory over the Houston Texans in a dramatic struggle at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.
Patrick Mahomes took the initiative to put the first score on the board in Saturday’s memorable showdown between AFC powerhouses when he took a first-quarter carry 15 yards for a touchdown on Kansas City’s opening possession.
The Chiefs’ secondary feasted on second-year quarterback C.J. Stroud, tallying two interceptions and one sack in what was arguably one of the unit’s most dominant performances of the season.
Kansas City advanced its record to 14-1 when the final whistle blew, and now only needs one more win to secure the No. 1 seed for the AFC playoffs.
Fans were not afraid to voice their opinions on the matchup after the final score was posted on Twitter.
Here were some of the top reactions to the Chiefs victory:
