Houston scored a 32-12 win over the Chargers during Wild Card Weekend, thanks to a dominant defensive and special teams performance.
Houston picked off Justin Herbert four times and held him to 14 completions on 32 attempts, and via NextGenStats, Houston blitzed on 38.9% of their defensive plays and got pressure on half of LA's drop backs.
That'll be a key for this week's game against the 1 seed in the AFC, the Chiefs.
These two teams met in Week 16, a game the Chiefs won 27-19.
In that first meeting, Patrick Mahomes was 26 for 41 for 260 yards and a touchdown as a passer, and he ran 5 times for 33 yards and a touchdown.
Xavier Worthy led the team in receiving yards (65), catches (7), and touchdowns (1).
