It's safe to say that the would like to do a better job containing than they did when they met him for the first time back in Week 2 of the 2018 season. Making just his second career start, Mahomes threw six touchdowns in leading the to a 42-37 win in Pittsburgh. Mahomes' performance offset a 452-yard, three touchdown performance from , who on Sunday will likely be making his final trip to Arrowhead Stadium as the Steelers quarterback.A win would help both teams as they look to strengthen Patrick Beverley Jersey their playoff positioning. Kansas City (10-4) is holding on to the No. 1 seed in the AFC with three weeks left in the regular season. Pittsburgh (7-6-1) likely needs to win two of its last three games in order to po sibly earn the seventh and final playoff seed. The Steelers are also in position to capture the AFC North if they can jump Cincinnati (8-6) and Baltimore (8-6) during the season's final three weeks.We'll preview the game along with giving our prediction for Sunday's outcome. Here's how you can follow the action in real time.Date:Sunday, Dec. 26 Chris Paul Jersey |Time:4:25 p.m. ETLocation: Arrowhead Stadium(Kansas City, Mi souri)TV:CBS|Stream:Paramount+ ()Follow:Odds: Chiefs -8.5, O/U 45Pittsburgh's offense gained just 168 yards in last Sunday's 19-13 win over the . They unit ran for a season-low 35 yards that included just 18 yards on 12 carries from . With in the backfield, the Steelers leaned on their running game to defeat the Chiefs the last two times Pittsburgh has come to Kansas City, and they'll need some semblance of a running game on Sunday if they're going to pull off an upset. The Chiefs enter Sunday's game ranked 29th in the NFL in yards-per-carry allowed (4.7 yards). Roethlisberger will surely look to attack a secondary that has given up the fifth-most pa sing yards in the NFL. With rookie phenom in the concu sion protocol, Big Ben will likely lean more on , who Tobias Harris Jersey will be playing with a chip on his shoulder after being snubbed from the Pro Bowl. The Chiefs' defense will also be motivated after allowing 28 points in last Thursday's overtime Rodney McGruder Jersey win in Los Angeles. Roethlisberger will have to constantly be aware of , aka the Honey Badger, who on Wednesday was selected to his third consecutive Pro Bowl.Receiver and tight end were on the Chiefs' reserve/COVID-19 list as of Thursday night. Regardle s of their statuses for Sunday, expect the Chiefs to go after a Pittsburgh run defense that is 31st in rushing yards allowed and 32nd in yards per carry allowed (4.9 yards). The Steelers' defense, led by defensive linemen and Cam Heyward and defensive backs and , will be focused on forcing turnovers after recording four of them during last week's win over the Titans. That could certainly happen, as Mahomes has thrown an interception in three of his last four games.Pittsburgh's run defense is subpar, but its pa s rush and opportunistic secondary is more than capable of Wesley Johnson Jersey holding Mahomes and the Chiefs' offense at bay, especially if Hill and Kelce are unable to play. The Steelers also have the advantage on special teams, as the Chiefs will be without kicker after he tested positive for COVID-19 earlier this week. The big question is the Steelers' offense and whether or not Pittsburgh's offensive line can get anything going against the Chiefs' stout defense.The Steelers will keep it close, and could po sibly pull off an upset if enough things go in their favor. But I'll go with the favored Chiefs to win a tight game while keeping their lead in the AFC standings. Score: Chiefs 24, Steelers 20
