Kansas City Chiefs vs Houston Texans Live Stream (NBC): Watch NFL Sunday Night Football 2017 Online
NFL Sunday Night Football will take place tonight with a big game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Houston Texans. The Chiefs will be looking to maintain their perfect start to the new season, but they will have to claim a road win against the Texans who are looking to maintain pressure on the top spot in the AFC South division.
The game has a scheduled start time of 8.30 p.m. ET and will take place from NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas. The game can be watched on TV on the NBC network, or online through live stream (details below).
The Chiefs will want to maintain the momentum they have gathered through the opening month of the season. They will know the Denver Broncos will push them all the way, so they will have to put on a top performance every game through the entire season if they are to claim the AFC West division.
At the moment the Chiefs are on 4-0, where as the Broncos are one back on 3-1. The Oakland Raiders are on an even 2-2, where as the LA Chargers are already realistically out of the running on 0-4.
Meanwhile, the AFC South is quite poor overall but extremely competitive. Three teams are tied for the top spot, although not one side in the entire division has a winning record after the first month of the season. The Jacksonville Jaguars, the Houston Texans and the Tennessee Titans are all on 2-2, and the Indianapolis Colts are in the basement but only one back on 1-3.
Houston will want to be the team that can string together a series of wins to pull out at the top of the division, and they will want to start that with a win here today.
Earlier this week on NFL Thursday Night Football, the New England Patriots won a tight game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to get themselves back to a winning record.
Things were close, however, and the Buccaneers were pushing in the fourth, but ultimately came up short to ensure the Patriots would claim a confidence boosting road win and move to 3-2.
The game came down to the final play, but once the dust settles the Patriots will be satisfied as a win is a win, and the game also saw quarterback Tom Brady tie Peyton Manning and Brett Favre for the most season wins by a quarterback with 186 victories.
Brady had a tough night, but still came up with some good stats. Despite throwing an interception, and losing a fumble, as well as getting hit all night, he managed to complete 30 of 40 passes for 303 yards and a touchdown.
As for the Buccaneers they will be disappointed having fallen just short of completing their comeback. Had quarterback Jameis Winston's final pass to OJ Howard been on target they would have stolen the win from the Patriots. Winston finished the game with 334 yards, completing 26 throws from 46 attempts.
The Buccaneers will also be looking at kicker Nick Folk, who missed three field goals, as a reason they came up short.
Meanwhile, today's big game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Houston Texans has a scheduled start time of 8.30 p.m. ET and can be watched on TV on the NBC network, or online through live stream on NBC.
