That is just one step from reaching another Super Bowl after already winning back-to-back rings.
They are searching for a historic three-peat, which would be a first in the history of the league.
Kelce had a mixed start to the season, but has been back to his old self in recent times.
And the 35-year-old put in his best performance of the year against the Texans.
He caught for 117-yards and a touchdown from his Chiefs partner Patrick Mahomes.
The partner of pop sensation Taylor Swift also caught all eight of his targets.
And head coach Reid had a simple message for Kelce following the game.
“He’s the greatest tight end there has been,” said Reid.
The statement by the Hall of Fame-bound coach shows how much the Chiefs need him.
And all that comes after talk he could retire at the end of this season.
Following the game, Mahomes hailed his Chiefs teammate for his incredible playoff form.
“It’s simple,” he said.
“It’s real: Big-time players make big-time plays in big-time games.

“That’s just how simple it is. He’s one of those guys, he doesn’t let the moment be bigger than what it is.
“He just goes out there and executes at a high level, just like he does in the regular season, he just does that at a little bit higher intensity.”
“It’s playoff Trav,” Mahomes continued.
“”He’s a leader, man. This is what he lives for, is playing in these moments and having the chance to make big-time plays.
“He goes out there and does that. It seems like he does it every single playoff game.”
Kelce is one of only two players in NFL history to reach 2,000 receiving yards and 20 touchdowns in the NFL playoffs.
The other was Jerry Rice, who is a Hall of Famer and 13-time Pro Bowler.
On Saturday, Kelce passed Rice to set a new record with his ninth 100-yard-plus game in the playoffs
