Kansas City Chiefs 2016 Season Schedule & Scores

Guided by quarterback Alex Smith and head coach Andy Reid, the Kansas City Chiefs bounced back from a lackluster 11-5 season in 2015 to achieve an impressive 12-4 record, clinching the AFC West title for the first time since 2010. This remarkable turnaround was driven by a stout defense that ranked second in the NFL for points allowed and a well-rounded offensive strategy. Key contributors included running back Spencer Ware and a dynamic trio of receivers: Tyreek Hill, Travis Kelce, and Jeremy Maclin. Despite their successful season, the Chiefs' journey came to a heart-wrenching close with an 18-20 overtime loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC Divisional Round playoff game.
