The snow kept falling over Orchard Park and the entire New York City, leading to the game against the Kansas City Chiefs [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/kansas-city-chiefs-nfl/]. Many wondered if it was a repeat of the wild-card game against the Pittsburgh Steelers [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/pittsburgh-steelers/]. But the unstoppable snow met its match in the Buffalo Bills’ [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/buffalo-bills/] fanbase. Last week, the wild-card game was postponed due to harsh weather conditions and torrential snowfall. Though the government implemented no emergency or traveling restrictions, the pitch looked in no way near to being playable. But watch how the Bills Mafia came together and did the unthinkable. THE BUFFALO BILLS ARE PROUD OF THEIR FANS Snowfall hadn’t given the Bills’ staff a break leading up to the fixture. The task seemed impossible, with more than 30 inches of snow covering the field and the seats. Since the Highmark Stadium is almost 50 years old, it lacks modern technology. But a hardcore fan base is more than that. The lack of underground heaters couldn’t be enough to delay or postpone the game. The Bills Mafia answered the call raised by their team for volunteers to help with the shoveling process.

The Bills will find enough motivation from their fans to go on the gridiron and earn a victory in this old rivalry matchup. THE ROAD TOWARD THE AFC CHAMPIONSHIP This will be the 55th time these old rivals will face each other. Their rivalry has been going since the AFL days, before the inception of the NFL. And the Bills have a leg-up in this rivalry as they lead the series 29-24-1. The Buffalo Bills vs the Chiefs [https://static.clubs.nfl.com/image/private/t_landscape_tablet/chiefs/cucgo76qvsj65vbl7jhi.jpg] The last two matchups have been won by the Bills, including the regular season game in Week 14. However, the Chiefs came out on top the last time the teams met in the playoffs. Who will progress to the AFC Championship game? The Buffalo Bills or the Kansas City Chiefs?

<h2 style="text-align: center">Buffalo Bills 2022: News, Schedule, Roster, Score, Injury Report</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The Buffalo Bills were founded in 1960 as a charter member of the American Football League (AFL) and joined the ranks of the NFL in 1970 following the NFL-AFL merger. They are the only NFL club that plays its home games in the state of New York. The franchise is owned by Terry and Kim Pegula who picked up the majority ownership tag following the death of the original owner Ralph Wilson back in 2014.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-497552 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201230195043/buffalo.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />
<p style="text-align: center">The franchise won two AFL championships back in 1964 and 1965, and these chips stand as the only major professional sports championships from a team representing Buffalo. Chiefly, the Bills found heightened success between 1990 and 1993 when they appeared in a record-setting four straight Super Bowls. However, they would go on to lose all four games.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">This unparalleled success was followed by a meaningful active playoff drought making them the last NFL franchise and the last in the four major leagues to qualify for a post-season in the 21<sup>st</sup> century. The club seems to have found its footing under Head Coach Sean McDermott however, the Bills still remain the only AFC East team to have never won a Super Bowl.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-497555 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201230195135/flagrancy.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="600" />
<p style="text-align: center">The 2020 campaign of the Buffalo Bills was a resounding success as they improved on their 2019 record of 10-6 by finishing off the regular season with a 13-3 run placing 1st in the AFC East. The Bills beat the Colts 27-24 in the Wild Card Playoffs as well as the Divisional Round against the Baltimore Ravens 17-3.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">However, the Bills lost the AFC championships match-up to the Kansas City Chiefs 24-28 and faltered to turn in a trip to the Super Bowl.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Logo</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The current logo for the Bills is a blue leaping buffalo with a red beam running down the middle. This has been the franchise logo since 1974. Turning back the clock, the Bills original logo depicts two football players sunning alongside several buffaloes. This logo lasted from 1960 to 1961 and was subsequently changed in 1962.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">The next logo depicts a brown football encompassing a Bills Player running beside a buffalo. The next change came in 1970 and led up all the way up to the modern iteration. The 1970-1973 logo saw the Bills adopt an all-red silhouette of a standing buffalo facing right.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Owner Achievements</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">Terrance Michael Pegula is an American billionaire businessman with a vested interest in entertainment, real estate, and natural gas development.
