The chase for Super Bowl 50 takes its first step in Houston when the Chiefs (11-5) visit the Texans (9-7) on Saturday.
This is the second time the two cross paths this season. Kansas City got the better of Houston in Week 1, capturing a 27-20 victory. Little went right for the Texans that afternoon. In a flash, the hosts were down 27-9. Even Brian Hoyer -- who is scheduled to start under center -- was benched in favor of Ryan Mallett in the fourth quarter.
Needless to say, head coach Bill O'Brien isn't looking for a repeat performance.
