The Chiefs are the fourth team in NFL history to advance to a conference title game after consecutive Super Bowl victories, with the previous three teams losing.

The Texans (11-8) have yet to win in six division games. They have lost twice to Kansas City.
Houston quarterback CJ Stroud threw for 245 yards but was sacked eight times. Joe Mixon, who was questionable to play due to an ankle injury, caught a pair of passes while rushing for 88 yards and a touchdown.
Texans kicker Kai’imi Fairbairn missed a 55-yard field goal attempt and an extra point attempt, and another field goal attempt was blocked with 1:46 left, which would have kept the scores alive. Houston’s comeback hopes by making it a one-possession game.
