A loss to the Texans will almost certainly mark the end of a frustrating season for the Chiefs. The reigning AFC champions have been entirely too reliant this year on Mahomes’ ability to be superhuman in dire situations, and it shows. Head coach Andy Reid has virtually abandoned the run game outside of the occasional scramble from the two-time MVP. Reid will need to get running backs Kareem Hunt and Isiah Pacheco more involved on Sunday if Kansas City wants to leave Arrowhead with a win and a chance at the playoffs. The Chiefs’ defense looked unrecognizable in last week’s loss to the Cowboys. Defensive linemen Chris Jones and George Karlaftis were almost entirely absent, and the secondary committed five pass interference penalties in the second half alone. Kansas City’s pass rush will need to step up and make its presence known against a young quarterback on Sunday or risk facing a long and frustrating offseason.Chiefs season schedule 2025WeekDateOpponentTimeWeek 1Friday, Sep. 5@ Los Angeles Chargers (L, 27-21)7:00 p.m. CT on YouTubeWeek 2Sunday, Sep. 9Philadelphia Eagles (L, 20-17)3:25 p.m. CT on FOXWeek 3Sunday, Sep. 21@ New York Giants (W, 22-9)7:20 p.m. CT on NBCWeek 4Sunday, Sep. 28Baltimore Ravens (W, 37-20)3:25 p.m. CT on CBSWeek 5Monday, Oct. 6@ Jacksonville Jaguars (L, 31-28)7:15 p.m. CT on ABC/ESPNWeek 6Sunday, Oct. 12Detroit Lions (W, 30-17)7:20 p.m. CT on NBCWeek 7Sunday, Oct. 19Las Vegas Raiders (W, 31-0)Noon CT on CBSWeek 8Sunday, Oct. 27Washington Commanders (W, 28-7)7:15 p.m. CT on ABC/ESPNWeek 9Sunday, Nov. 2@ Buffalo Bills (L, 28-21)3:25 p.m. CT on CBSWeek 10ByeWeek 11Sunday, Nov. 16@ Denver Broncos (W, 22-19)3:25 p.m. CT on CBSWeek 12Sunday, Nov. 23Indianapolis Colts (W, 23-20)Noon CT on CBSWeek 13Thursday, Nov. 27@ Dallas Cowboys (L, 31-28)3:30 p.m. CT on CBSWeek 14Sunday, Dec. 7Houston Texans7:20 p.m. CT on NBCWeek 15Sunday, Dec. 14Los Angeles ChargersNoon CT on CBSWeek 16Sunday, Dec. 21@ Tennessee TitansNoon CT on CBSWeek 17Thursday, Dec. 25Denver Broncos7:15 p.m. CT on PrimeWeek 18TBD@ Las Vegas RaidersTBDKey InjuriesChiefsDB Chris Roland-Wallace (back)OL Trey Smith (ankle)OL Jawaan Taylor (triceps/knee)WR Nikko Remigio (shoulder/concussion)TexansLB Jamal Hill (hamstring)DB Kamari Lassiter (foot)DL Tim Settle Jr. (foot)DB Jaylen Reed (forearm)This article originally appeared on Chiefs Wire: How to watch Chiefs vs. Texans: Time, TV channel for Week 14
