If the whole postseason is going to be like this... buckle up. This is going to be fun.snpy.tv/1kW1gSS

The Kansas City Chiefs needed exactly 11 seconds to take a 7-0 lead over the Houston Texans in their AFC wild-card matchup on Saturday, or the amount of time it took Chiefs' running back Knile Davis to run the opening kickoff back 106 yards for a touchdown.
It was just the fifth time in NFL postseason history that a game's opening kickoff was returned for a score; the last time was in Super Bowl XLI, when Devin Hester did it for the Chicago Bears. Hester's special teams coordinator that day, Dave Toub, is the Kansas City coordinator now.
Davis' return was also the second-longest in postseason history, behind Jacoby Jones, who returned the second-half kickoff in Super Bowl XLVII 108 yards.
A third-round pick in 2013, Davis had a 108-yard return during his rookie year, in a regular-season loss to the Denver Broncos.
