Watch it: Stakes get higher for KC Chiefs as they prepare to visit Cincinnati Bengals
Fresh off winning their sixth straight AFC West title, the Chiefs travel to Cincinnati to play the Bengals at Paul Brown Stadium on Sunday.
The playoff-bound Chiefs clinched a playoff berth with last weekend’s win over the Steelers but have some unfinished business to take care of in Week 17. The stakes remain high for the conference’s No. 1 seed in the postseason.
On Thursday, Herbie Teope, fellow beat writer Sam McDowell and columnist Vahe Gregorian previewed the game and its implications in a year-end edition of The Star’s SportsBeat Live stream. Their conversation is presented here as a SportsBeat KC replay.
With a one-game lead for the top seed, the Chiefs (11-4) need a win to stay ahead of the Tennessee Titans (10-5) with the regular season coming to a close. The Chiefs could clinch that spot with a win and Titans loss.
