ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) \u2014 Fresh off beating the Super Bowl champs, the Dallas Cowboys get the runner-up in their annual Thanksgiving home game.<\/p>\n
It doesn\u2019t get any easier after Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs visit Thursday with the Cowboys (5-5-1) pondering an improbable run to a playoff spot after coming off consecutive victories for the first time this season, including Sunday\u2019s rally from 21 points down in a 24-21 victory over Philadelphia.<\/p>\n
Some of the upcoming opponents might not look as formidable as they first did when the Dallas schedule for November and December showed six consecutive playoff teams from a year ago.<\/p>\n
Then again, the Chiefs (6-5) fit that description because they\u2019re outside the seven-team playoff picture just like the Cowboys. A winner of nine straight AFC West titles, Kansas City is 10th in the AFC right now \u2014 same as Dallas in the NFC.<\/p>\n
The star quarterbacks will lead the NFL\u2019s top two passing offenses onto the Thanksgiving stage, with Dak Prescott\u2019s Cowboys atop the league averaging 267 yards per game and him now holding the franchise record for career yards passing.<\/p>\n
His respect for Mahomes is perfectly reflected in a meeting where both teams feel the need to come close to winning out in order to reach the postseason. The Chiefs took a big step last week with a 23-20 overtime victory over Indianapolis.<\/p>\n
For the Cowboys, it probably will take at least four wins in their final six games. And even that might not be enough. First things first, though.<\/p>\n
Heading home<\/p>\n
Mahomes grew up in East Texas and his dad, former big league pitcher Pat Mahomes Sr., was a Cowboys fan. So, naturally, the younger Mahomes caught quite a few of their games over the years.<\/p>\n
He finally got to play at AT&T Stadium in college, when Texas Tech played Baylor, and remembers losing on a failed 2-point conversion as a freshman. The Red Raiders split his other two games against the Bears under the retractable roof.<\/p>\n
Mahomes reflects on returning to his home state of Texas for the Thanksgiving game vs. the Cowboys<\/p>\n
\u201cJust getting to play at home, having a lot of people in attendance that might not get to come to Kansas City, it\u2019ll be really cool to experience playing there, especially on Thanksgiving,\u201d Mahomes said, adding he\u2019ll probably have \u201c50-plus\u201d friends and family in attendance.<\/p>\n
Memory lane<\/p>\n
Facing the Chiefs might bring some wistful moments for Brian Schottenheimer. His dad, the late Marty Schottenheimer, led the Chiefs for 10 of his 21 years as an NFL head coach. Of the elder Schottenheimer\u2019s 200 career wins, 101 were with KC.<\/p>\n
Brian Schottenheimer remembers how the Hunt family, owners of the Chiefs, treated his dad after he was diagnosed with Alzheimer\u2019s disease. Marty Schottenheimer died at 77 in 2021.<\/p>\n
The younger Schottenheimer was a quarterback at Florida when the Chiefs lost their only Thanksgiving meeting against the Cowboys with his dad on the sideline in 1995. His second year as an assistant was Marty Schottenheimer\u2019s final season as coach of the Chiefs in 1998.<\/p>\n
Happy Hunt-ing<\/p>\n
Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt ran a career-high 30 times in Sunday\u2019s win over the Colts, and having a short week to recover from that workload is hardly ideal. But he figures to get a little bit of a break with the return of Isiah Pacheco, who has missed the past three games because of a knee injury.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019ll play,\u201d Chiefs coach Andy Reid said. \u201cHow much, I can\u2019t tell you that right now. See how it goes.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you purchase a product through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
