The Kansas City Chiefs face the Houston Texans on Sunday, Oct. 8 in NFL Week 5 on Sunday Night Football. Here’s all the info you need to watch.

Sunday Night Football has become the best of all the games. Monday Night Football used to rule the roost before moving to ESPN where not everyone can watch it, and Thursday Night Football hasn’t gained the support of every fan (or player) just yet. That leaves the nationally televised Sunday night game as the new king and in Week 5 it will feature the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs and the impressive Houston Texans.

After defeating the defending NFL champions, New England Patriots, on Thursday Night Football in Week 1 the Chiefs have been putting the league on notice. Often overlooked as a contender, they’re taking games over with a great mixture of offensive and defensive domination. Quarterback Alex Smith has yet to throw an interception, and rookie running back Kareem Hunt has become arguably the best runner in the game.

Houston is also led by an exciting rookie as quarterback Deshaun Watson is turning into a star in a hurry. After the team started veteran Tom Savage in Week 1, Watson got his chance thanks to some poor play by the more experienced player. Since then he has given them a much needed shot in the arm, and they enter prime time ready to move to 3-2 via a statement win over the Chiefs.
