Final: Chiefs, 29, Steelers 10

So much for close Chiefs wins. This is now three consecutive wins by eight-plus points after a 21-7 defeat of the Browns and a 27-19 victory over the Texans last week. The wins over Houston and Pittsburgh came against fellow playoff teams.

And this one was dominant on both sides of the ball. Patrick Mahomes was in MVP form with 320 yards and three touchdowns. And Kansas City's defense was stout as usual while holding the Steelers to 10 points.

Is anybody still discounting the Chiefs as a Super Bowl favorite?

The Steelers have the ball back after a Chiefs punt, but this one is over. Kansas City leads, 29-10 with 3:31 remaining and is well on its way to a 15-1 start and locking up the AFC's No. 1 seed.

Travis Kelce's fourth-quarter touchdown catch was the 77th of his career, breaking Tony Gonzalez's Chiefs record for touchdown catches. Kelce responded by dunking the ball over the goal post, a tribute to Gonzalez's signature celebration.

The celebration drew an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. Here's guessing that Kelce doesn't care.

Even a taunting penalty couldn't save the Steelers here. A fourth-and-20 pass from Russell Wilson fell incomplete and Chiefs cornerback Jaden Hicks gave George Pickens a double thumbs down after the pass breakup near the goal line.

The gesture drew a 15-yard taunting penalty of little consequence. The penalty was enforced after Kansas City took over on downs. The Chiefs have the ball and a 29-10 lead with less than 10 minutes remaining in regulation.

The Chiefs are cruising, but Isiah Pacheco's day might be done. He's questionable to return with a rib injury.

Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth fumbled, and the Chiefs recovered. Four plays later, Travis Kelce was in the end zone on a pass from Patrick Mahomes for another Chiefs touchdown to extend Kansas City's lead to 29-10. The Steelers are going to need a Christmas miracle to pull this one out in the fourth quarter.

The Chiefs extend their lead to 22-10. Kareem Hunt punches it in from 2 yards to cap an 11-play, 77-yard drive with a touchdown. Kansas City failed on a two-point conversion and holds a 12-point lead early in the fourth quarter.

The Chiefs are up by six entering the fourth quarter, and they're threatening to score again.

Travis Kelce has now surpassed 1,000 career receptions with the Chiefs, who are driving once again here in the third.

The Steelers didn't move the ball on their final possession, and we go into halftime with the Chiefs holding a 13-7 lead.

The Steelers now have the ball for the likely last possession of the first half. A 72-yard Chiefs punt results in a touchback, and Pittsburgh has the ball back at its own 20 with 31 seconds left in the half.

A deep Russell Wilson pass to Mike Williams fell incomplete on third-and-9, and the Chiefs have the ball back at their own 21 after a Steelers punt. Can they add to their 13-7 lead with 1:01 remaining?

The Steelers have forced a second consecutive Chiefs punt and have the ball back at their own 20 with a chance to take the lead after a touchback. Kansas City leads, 13-7 with 6:06 before halftime.

We have a game. The Steelers have cut it to one possession. Russell Wilson caps an 11-play, 72-yard drive with a one-yard touchdown scramble around the left end. He reaches out for the pylon just before going out of bounds. Chiefs 13, Steelers 7

The Chiefs didn't take advantage of the turnover. They punt after a 3-and-out. Pittsburgh has the ball on second-and-6 while facing a 13-0 deficit at the end of the first quarter.

The Steelers appeared to answer with a quick-strike touchdown late in the first quarter. But Jaylen Warren's 8-yard touchdown run was negated by a holding penalty. Then Russell Wilson did this: An interception in the end zone to Justin Reid keeps the Pittsburgh off the board. Chiefs still lead, 13-0.

This is the Patrick Mahomes that Chiefs fans know and love. Mahomes made two masterful plays to lead Kansas City to its second touchdown in two drives.

The first was a drive-saving scramble and wrist flick for a first down on third-and-11.

One play later, he found Justin Watson deep for a 49-yard gain.

It all set up this touchdown pass to Watson for an early 13-0 lead.

Kansas City is dominant on both sides of the ball in the first quarter.

Kansas City forced a punt on Pittsburgh's second possession, then caught a break on the return. Returner Nikko Remigio fumbled on the return. But the ball bounced off a Steelers player and back into the hands of his Chiefs teammate Deon Bush. Chiefs recover the fumble and take over with a 6-0 lead.

Here's the Xavier Worthy celebration that drew the penalty. Apparently the jersey lift at the end is the offending move.

Kansas City takes advantage of the good early field position with a 42-yard touchdown drive capped by a Xavier Worthy touchdown catch from Patrick Mahomes. But it wasn't perfect.

Andy Reid burned two of Kansas City's three first-half timeouts. And Worthy was flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct for his touchdown celebration. It's not clear what irked officials, but it cost the Chiefs 15 yards on the extra point. And Harrison Butker missed. 6-0 Chiefs.

Have heard some folks note that they weren't able to get the Netflix stream to load. Closing out and restarting is working for some. Good luck!

Kansas City's defense has set the tone early. A third-down sack of Russell Wilson forced a 3-and-out sack. Kansas City starts in great field position after a 38-yard punt return. Starting at the Pittsburgh

And now it's time for football. The Chiefs won the toss and deferred. The Steelers will receive the opening kick.

So far, so good for the Netflix stream as we approach kickoff. The Mariah Carey intro came in clear. Not seeing any reports of Tyson-Paul type glitches. We'll see how it goes as the game gets underway and for the real test — Beyoncé.

There's a lot of red sprinkled in amongst the terrible towels in Pittsburgh. Chiefs fans are traveling for the holidays among one of the best-traveling fanbases in sports.
