NFL Playoffs 2024: Josh Allen Hopes to Conquer 2022 Demons as Bills QB Aims to Vanquish Patrick Mahomes’ Dynasty

The Buffalo Bills pulverized the Pittsburgh Steelers and are set to welcome the Kansas City Chiefs in the Highmark Stadium. We just hope that the game doesn’t get postponed like this one. Patrick Mahomes will play a playoff game on the road for the first time in his career. A lot is riding on this game for both teams.

The Bills defeated the Chiefs in their recent bout. But as far as revenge is concerned, the game is equally symbolic for both teams. For starters, the Bills lost to the Chiefs in the AFC Divisional Playoff game last year. Can they turn things around this time, especially after amassing a couple of injuries after the Steelers game? We just have to wait and find out.

Josh Allen will have to do his best to not repeat past mistakes

After the 36-42 loss to the Chiefs last year, the Bills have come so far. A tweet from Rich Eisen reveals some interesting facts about the upcoming matchup. The tweet points out that this is the franchise’s first time since 2015 that the Kansas City Chiefs are visiting the Bills Stadium.

Rich Eisen wrote on X, “The Bills get 4 touchdowns from @JoshAllenQB and finally get the @chiefs in their house for a postseason game. It will be the first-ever road playoff game for @PatrickMahomes and the first for the franchise since the 2015 team lost in the Divisional round in Foxboro.”

In the wake of this game, more interesting facts about the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs rivalry have surfaced. The Bills Mafia lead the rivalry with a 29-24-1 record in their favor. They once tied with each other back in 1963 when the game ended with 27 points on the board.

In their last AFC Division Playoff Game, Josh All had 4 touchdowns, but still lost to Patrick Mahomes and Co. in Arrowhead Stadium.

Bills Vs. Chiefs analysis: A trip down memory lane

In the battle of the QBs, Josh Allen made 27 of 37 passes for 329 yards and went for 4 touchdowns. He also got sacked twice but came out with a passer rating of 136.0 and had 8.9 yards per attempt. However, the story of Patrick Mahomes is a bit different.

Mahomes was able to complete 33 of 44 passes he made for 378 yards and had 3 touchdowns in the game. Mahomes was taken down twice and had an 8.6 YPA. He came out with a passer rating of 123.1 when the game ended.

According to an analysis from Pro Football Database, it seems like the Bills are slightly short of rushing and passing games, mostly because they lost a couple of yards due to various reasons. Further analysis showed that the Chiefs are better in terms of third-down percentages with 8-13 which makes it just above the 61% mark.

However, the Bills were 6-14 on their third downs, making it about 42% of completed plays. Hopefully, the Bills do better this year considering that this would be a home game. Exciting times ahead to say the least.
