Returning to Sunday against the Colts, Kansas City’s chances of making the playoffs jump to 63% with a win, according to NFL.com. Pro Football Focus is even more optimistic, listing the Chiefs’ playoff odds at 68% with a win over the Colts.

Indianapolis Colts' head coach Shane Steichen provided an injury update on Friday on defensive tackle DeForest Buckner. Buckner appeared on the Colts ' Week 10 injury report ahead of their game with Atlanta with a neck injury. He was ruled out of that game early on and then was placed on injured reserve.

The Indianapolis Colts can seriously dampen the playoff hopes of the Kansas City Chiefs with a huge win on Sunday.

The Chiefs would fall short of a historical streak if they miss the playoffs. They’ve appeared in the NFL postseason for 10 straight seasons. Only the New England Patriots’ streak of 11 AFC East titles (2009-19) — broken by the Bills — is longer.

Now, the Chiefs have to begin their fight for a Wild Card playoff position by hosting an Indianapolis Colts team that has stormed through the regular season to this point. Voice of the Chiefs Mitch Holthus details the match-up with KSHB 41 anchor Taylor Hemness.

The Indianapolis Colts' pass rush got another boost during Thursday's practice. After defensive end Samson Ebukam returned to practice on Wednesday after missing the last three games with a knee injury, Tyquan Lewis was back on Thursday after missing three games as well with a groin injury.

Momentum briefly stalls after a false start on Jawaan Taylor and a three-yard loss by running back Isiah Pacheco. Facing second-and-18, Mahomes hits wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster, who fights his way to within a yard of the sticks. On third-and-1, Mahomes surprisingly keeps it himself, plunging forward on a quarterback dive to move the chains.
