In their first meeting, Mahomes threw for 325 yards and three touchdowns, leading Kansas City to victory. In their second encounter, Allen put up impressive numbers, but it was not enough to overcome the Chiefs, who won 38-24. The two teams also played one of the memorable NFL playoff games, which went into overtime and forced the league to change its overtime rules.
Despite their previous postseason failures against Kansas City, the Bills have had success against them during the regular season, winning their last three matchups. Both teams are coming into this game on winning streaks, with the Bills winning six straight games and the Chiefs winning three. The Chiefs struggled earlier in the season but bounced back in the final two weeks before dominating the Miami Dolphins in their last game.

The game promises to be a thrilling battle between two AFC powerhouses. Kickoff is scheduled for Sunday at 6:30 p.m. ET.
