Laurent Duvernay-Tardif looking forward to Chiefs rematch with Steelers
Canadian Laurent Duvernay-Tardif and the Kansas City Chiefs will get a second shot at the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.
Kansas City hosts Pittsburgh in the AFC divisional playoff game at Arrowhead Stadium. The Chiefs will not only be looking for their first home playoff win in over 20 years but also to avenge a lopsided 43-14 loss to the Steelers on Oct. 2 at Heinz Field.
“When we first heard we were going to play the Steelers I think everybody was kind of happy because nobody likes to get beat the way we got beat,” Duvernay-Tardif said during a conference call. “I think it’s our chance, our opportunity, to show we’re a really good football team and that we’re not the same team we were during our first go-around with them.
“I think it’s going to be in the back of our minds but in a positive way. Personally and collectively as a team everybody is really looking forward to that game.”
