The Chiefs have released their injury report that rules out Kadarius Toney and many others from the Divisional clash. The Chiefs and the Bills are gearing up for a season rematch. Both teams won the Wild card round and have made their way to the next big stage. The game will take place in the home ground of the Bills mafia. Things are bound to get crazy as every Bills fan wants to give it back to the Chiefs in the playoffs.
The Bills won the regular season thriller against the Chiefs by 20-17. But the scars of last year’s loss 36-42 at the Divisional is fresh in the mind of Bills Mafia. That battle took place at Arrowhead. Now the Chiefs need to be in their best shape to give it back to the resurging Bills. But it seems they will miss some of their key players.

The Bills also released the list of seven inactive players before the game: WR Gabe Davis, S Taylor Rapp, LB Terral Bernard, CB Christian Benford, LB Baylon Spector, OL Alec Anderson, and DT Poona Ford.
So both teams are going to miss seven each. Still, this game is the battle of the two exceptional QBs. The primary question in fans’ mind before the game is: Who will win this round?

However, Josh Allen has amassed the greatest number of TDs (44) this season (29 pass and 15 rush). But, he has 18 interceptions in total as well and the Chiefs’ defense will try to exploit the same. Mahomes has retained his form and will need support from his team to be more focused and vigilant.
