Quarterbacks Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen lead explosive offenses, setting the stage for yet another electrifying chapter in their rivalry.
Sunday’s game will mark the third time the Chiefs and Bills have met in the playoffs in the last four seasons, adding even more weight to this showdown.
For Reid, the familiarity with Buffalo extends beyond the Xs and Os. As posted by ESPN reporter Michele Steele on X, Reid said, “I feel like we play these guys all the time. So they know us, we know them.”
His candid remark underscores the intensity and frequency of their recent postseason battles. The Chiefs will lean on their playoff experience and home-field advantage at Arrowhead Stadium.
Meanwhile, the Bills look to prove they can finally overcome Kansas City in a winner-takes-all setting.
All eyes will be on whether Reid’s Chiefs can once again hold off Allen and his hungry Bills squad. One thing is certain: when Kansas City and Buffalo meet, the fireworks are guaranteed.
