10 Quick Facts Following Saturday’s Week 16 Victory Over Seattle


8. The Chiefs completed a regular-season sweep of their NFC opponents.

Kansas City went 5-0 against NFC opponents this season, earning victories against the Seahawks, Cardinals, 49ers, Rams and Buccaneers. This marks the third-straight season that the Chiefs have swept the NFC opponents on their schedule, and since Week 9 of the 2019 season, Kansas City has now won 16 consecutive regular-season games against the NFC.

Patrick Mahomes, in particular, is now 19-3 vs. the NFC in the regular season.

9. Kansas City won by double-digits despite some frigid conditions.

Saturday’s game kicked off at just 12 degrees, making it the coldest game at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium since Week 15 of the 2016 season (1 degree). It was the fifth-coldest kickoff temperature in Kansas City since at least 1994.

The wind chill of -4 degrees was also the fifth-coldest mark since at least 1994.

10. The Chiefs secured their fifth-straight 12-win season on Saturday.

Kansas City has now won at least 12 games in every season since 2018, compiling the third-longest such streak in NFL history. Only the 2003-09 Colts (7 straight) and 2010-17 Patriots (8 straight) amassed longer streaks.

This is undoubtedly the greatest stretch of success in franchise history, and with another 12-win season and a seventh-straight division title already in the bag, Kansas City has positioned itself well for another postseason run.

In the meantime, the Chiefs will now turn the page to a divisional matchup against the Denver Broncos at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium this upcoming Sunday as Kansas City aims to keep pace with the Buffalo Bills for the top seed in the AFC.
