The Kansas City Chiefs spotted the Houston Texans 24 points in their Divisional Round matchup on Sunday, but they then went on a 41-0 run to take a 41-24 lead in the third quarter. Chiefs running back Damien Williams capped off the surge with a five-yard touchdown run, his third score of the game:
Six straight touchdown drives for the @Chiefs!

Williams had just scored from a yard out the possession before to make it 34-24. He also caught a 17-yard touchdown pass from Patrick Mahomes in the second quarter to finally get the Chiefs on the board after their awful start.
Williams joined teammate Travis Kelce with three scores for the game. A pair of teammates hadn't scored three touchdowns in a playoff game since 1995:
