The Texans battle the Chiefs in Week 1 of the NFL season. Finding an NFL live stream can be difficult, but Decider is here to help! Watch Houston Texans vs Kansas City Chiefs Live Stream Online HD , After playing a high-stakes grudge match followed by a cupcake, the Kansas City Chiefs face a tough test as they travel to Houston for a road date against the Texans. The teams last met in 2009, when Jim Mora was coaching in Seattle and J.J. Watt was playing his first year at defensive end in Wisconsin after transferring from Central Michigan, where he played tight end.

Things have changed a bit since then.
Mora is gone to sunny SoCal at UCLA, Watt is the reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year, and the two teams enter Sunday’s matchup with a lot to prove: Seattle, that it’s more than a good team with a great home-field advantage, and Houston, that last week’s embarrassing blowout loss in Baltimore was simply an anomaly.
The Chiefs offense finally broke out in a 45-17 win against lowly Jacksonville, rolling up 479 yards of total offense while carving up an over-matched Jaguars defense. Stars like Russell Wilson, Sidney Rice and Marshawn Lynch all played well, but the blowout provided an opportunity for the team show off its incredible depth. Players like rookies Christine Michael and Luke Willson gave Hawks fans a chance to see that the team is in good hands even when the household names aren’t on the field.
Defensively, the Chiefs continued their dominating play. The scary thing is that after surrendering yardage and points to the Jags in garbage time, Seattle’s defenders were not happy about their effort. Through the first three games, defensive end Michael Bennett looks borderline unblockable, and linebackers Bobby Wagner and K.J. Wright make plays all over the field. Oh, and then there’s that “Legion of Boom” secondary.
On the contrary, the usually potent Texans offense suffered through an uncharacteristically bad performance against Baltimore, totaling 264 yards and nine points in an uninspired effort. The reliable running back combination of Arian Foster and Ben Tate didn’t live up to its sterling reputation, rushing for a combined 90 yards on 21 carries.
Quarterback Matt Schaub obviously missed star receiver Andre Johnson, who exited the Baltimore game with a bruised shin and looks to be a game-time decision against Seattle. If he can’t go, rookie DeAndre Hopkins will need to pick up the slack and serve as the Texans’ deep threat.
On defense, Watt has played like his disruptive self, tallying three sacks, and linebacker Brian Cushing looks to be fully recovered from last year’s knee surgery, leading the team in tackles and tying for second with 1.5 sacks. Former Ravens safety Ed Reed entered the lineup in time to face his old teammates, but didn’t make much of an impact last week.
Houston ranks second behind only the Chiefs in passing yards against and yards per game allowed, but scores on special teams and on turnovers mean the Texans are just No. 24 in the league in points against.
The Chiefs are certainly in the conversation as one of the best teams in the NFL, but if they want to stake claim to that title, they need to win games on the road, where they were only 3-5 a year ago. Injuries to starting center Max Unger and right tackle Breno Giacomini complicate matters quite a bit, not to mention the absence of left tackle Russell Okung, so Seattle could have big issues against Houston’s blitzing defense.
With a potent offense and dangerous D, the Texans entered the season as legitimate Super Bowl contenders, but serious questions surround the team after last week’s debacle and two uninspired wins on the road against San Diego and at home to Tennessee. They will be primed for a statement win against a team that’s toast of the NFL right now.
Sunday afternoon football and we will see the Kansas City Chiefs travel to the Lone Star State to take on the Houston Texans. The start time is 4:25 pm (Eastern) and the game will be televised on FOX. Current Odds have Seattle listed as 2 point favorites, while the total sits at 41.5.
