The Kansas City Chiefs have had plenty of time to regroup, restore, and get back to full strength.
Their starters haven’t played in the past couple of weeks.
Of course, some believe that could end up hurting them.
They’re not into the kind of rhythm that other playoff-bound teams are in.
More than that, they’re about to face a very strong defense.
That’s why Emmanuel Acho believes they should be concerned about their upcoming game.
Talking on FOX’s “The Facility,” the former linebacker claimed that DeMeco Ryans would have his defense ready to perform.

He argued that the Texans’ defense should have an edge over the Chiefs’ offense, roster-wise.
That’s all true, and they do have an elite pass-rushing duo and a strong secondary.
Then again, they will have to be on the road to face a Chiefs team with plenty of time to prepare for this game.
They will face one of the best, if not the best, head coaches in NFL history.
While the Chiefs offense wasn’t as proficient this season, they looked much better in the last three games the starters played.
Of course, by no means should the Chiefs look past the Texans.
But until proven otherwise, they will still continue to be the team to beat in this league.
Patrick Mahomes will be a completely different player in the playoffs, and while the Chiefs need to be wary of the Texans, the visitors will be under even more pressure.
