If I had to bet one way or the other, I would say that it won't have any effect at all ........ but the players are human, so it's possible that they could feel a little extra pressure than if it were being played as the AFC Championship and/or if it were a team other than the Colts (who have been a thorn in their postseason sides over the last quarter of a century.)

The Colts are 4-0 vs. the Chiefs in the postseason since 1995.
3 of those 4 wins were rather historic (2 huge upsets in the AFC Divisional playoff round, and 1 that was the 2nd biggest comeback win in postseason history (1933 - Present.)
The only one of those 4 postseason wins against the Chiefs that was not particularly memorable and/or historic was the 2006 Wildcard playoff win ........ the Colts were playing at home, they were favored to win, and they won the game rather handily (23-8.)
