40 | Week 17 Outcomes & AFC Wild Card Round, Divisional Foes (Bengals-Steelers, Texans-Chiefs)

The date of Week 17 had '40' numerology.  In the AFC, three crucial games had scores summing to '40'.  When I think of '40', I think of Super Bowl 40, between the Steelers and the Seahawks.

1/3/2016 = 1+3+20+16 = 40

Steelers = 1+2+5+5+3+5+9+1 = 31/40/49

Next week, Wild Card round, both games are divisional, Bengals and Steelers.  Also, Chiefs and Texans.

With regards to the Chiefs, they began as the Dallas Texans, before moving to Kansas City, becoming the Chiefs.  Next week the Chiefs and Texans face-off.

If there was one team I was worried about knocking off the Broncos, it would be the Chiefs, lead by #11, in his 11th season, coming into the playoffs with 11 regular season wins.
