Chiefs look to end playoff woes against Texans

HOUSTON — The previous time the Chiefs won a playoff game Bill Clinton was president and Tonya Harding's ex-husband had just been arrested for hiring someone to attack figure skating rival Nancy Kerrigan.

Kansas City has lost eight postseason games since that win over the Oilers in Houston on Jan. 16, 1994, and will return to the city to face the Texans today in the AFC wild-card round.

The Chiefs, who have won a franchise-record 10 straight games after a 1-5 start, say they won't be thinking about their years of playoffs woes.

"I don't think this team's carrying that weight, to be honest," quarterback Alex Smith said.
