Mahomes and Allen Set for High-Stakes Rematch in AFC Championship
Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen will face off once again in a highly anticipated AFC Championship game, with a trip to New Orleans on the line. The Buffalo Bills earned their spot after a hard-fought 27-25 victory over the Baltimore Ravens, forcing three turnovers and capitalizing on them to secure the win.
Buffalo will now head to Kansas City to meet the Chiefs next Sunday. In their Week 11 matchup, the Bills handed the Chiefs their first loss of the season, with Allen contributing 262 passing yards, one touchdown, and 55 rushing yards with a rushing TD. Despite that victory, Buffalo has never defeated a Mahomes-led Chiefs team in the postseason, with Kansas City eliminating the Bills in last year’s divisional round.
AFC Championship Game Prediction:
(1) Kansas City Chiefs vs. (2) Buffalo Bills
In Week 11, the Bills defense dominated, picking off Mahomes twice and sacking him twice while limiting both DeAndre Hopkins and Travis Kelce. Buffalo’s league-best +24 turnover differential during the regular season proves they can get to Mahomes, but can they finally get over the postseason hump?
USA TODAY Sports predicts a thrilling showdown between these two quarterbacks, each with something to prove. Will the Chiefs continue their postseason dominance, or will Allen and the Bills finally take the next step?
