The Kansas City Chiefs (11-1) will face the Los Angeles Chargers (8-4) in Week 14 of the 2024 NFL season on "Sunday Night Football."
The Chiefs, led by Andy Reid, Patrick Mahomes, and Travis Kelce, are fresh off a miniature bye week after a 19-17 win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Black Friday. While Kansas City clinched a playoff berth just last week, Jim Harbaugh and Justin Herbert's Chargers are in the thick of the AFC playoff race. A win for Los Angeles would help them punch their ticket with an AFC Wild Card spot, while a win for the Chiefs would see them clinch another AFC West title.
Will you be able to watch this game on TV?
Yes, this game isn't like last week's Black Friday game. It is nationally broadcast on local NBC networks and available for streaming as well. You can also watch pregame coverage on both NBC and Peacock beginning at 7 p.m. ET with "Football Night in America." NBC's Maria Taylor, Jason Garrett, Chris Simms, Tony Dungy, Rodney Harrison, Mike Florio, Devin McCourty, Matthew Berry, and Jac Collinsworth are featured on that pregame and post-Sunday afternoon football show.

Bud Light – Cheers to the Loudest Cheers
Make some noise Chiefs Kingdom, it’s time to celebrate the greatest (and loudest) fans in the league. On September 29, 2014, Chiefs fans broke the record for the loudest crowd noise at 142.2 dB at Arrowhead Stadium. To celebrate the fans and the 10-year anniversary of this feat, the Chiefs and Bud Light have partnered to create an unforgettable moment to commemorate the occasion during Sunday Night Football against the Los Angeles Chargers at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.
During the first half, fans will be prompted to unleash their team spirit and cheer as loud as they can. To honor the accomplishment, the Chiefs and Bud Light have created a custom, co-branded glass fridge that will sit on the GEHA Drum Deck in the stadium and will “break open” as fans cheer to honor breaking the world record in 2014.
Shortly before the moment happens, the videoboard will play a “Decade of Decibels” rewind highlight video, sponsored by Bud Light, followed by a live shot of Chiefs Legends, who played in the historical game in 2014, surrounding the fridge as it “breaks open,” setting off a special reward for fans.
For fans attending the game (21 and older), upon entry they will receive a commemorative koozie with a QR code inside. The QR code will lead them to a Bud Light webpage (that will be age gated before allowing entry to the site). Once the crowd cheers and the fridge “cracks open,” fans can enter online to win free beer for an entire year – and 142 people will be selected as winners.
For the fans who can’t make it to GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium (21 and older), there will be a Chiefs and Bud Light co-branded glass fridge set up at both The Other Place Overland Park (7324 W 80th St, Overland Park, KS 66204) and Johnny’s Tavern (1310 Grand Blvd, Kansas City, MO 64106) in downtown Kansas City. Once the in-stadium fridge “breaks open” during the first half, the fridges in each location will “break open” as well, and the bar will provide one free beer for each patron.
Cell Phone Light Show:
During the Sunday Night Football game, fans will cheer on the Chiefs in a way they’ve never done before – using their smartphones to create a light show to welcome the team onto the field as they are introduced and at the end of the third quarter. The stadium announcer will prompt fans as the lights go down, and the crowd will open their Chiefs app on their smartphone, press “join light show” and their screen will begin to flash in sync to the beat of the music of the stadium.
To be able to participate, fans should simply follow the steps below:
1: Download the Chiefs app on your smartphone
2: During player introductions and at the end of the third quarter, open the app and tap "join light show"
3: Make sure you enable microphone and camera access
4: Enjoy the show!
