The results are in and the AFC has its last two competitors standing. One of the perpetual candidates for the past half decade has been the Kansas City Chiefs. With Patrick Mahomes as their starting QB, the team has made 5 straight AFC games. They defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars and Trevor Lawrence 20-27 yesterday to book their place.

Meanwhile, the Cincinnati Bengals shocked the NFL world with a clean and controlled win over the Buffalo Bills. The pass rush was breathing down Josh Allen‘s neck all day. Notably, the Bills’ defense had no answers for the calm and calculated Joe Burrow. It is the second straight AFC game for the Bungles as well. And, it was the orange and black which came out on top during the last encounter.
Patrick Mahomes issues a bold warning to Joe Burrow
Right after the game for the final spot was over, MVP frontrunner, Mahomes, shared a cryptic post via his Twitter. The message showcased a clock, possibly indicating the countdown to the AFC game coming up. While last time, the 27-year-old was sent home by a QB in his second year and with a questionable offensive line.

PM15 won’t be underestimating his enemies this time. Especially Joe Burrow, who seems to have the number of the former Super Bowl winner. Burrow has a 3-0 record against the Chiefs’ superstar. He is one of the very few QBs to have such an impressive streak against Mahomes. The list only includes the name of Tom Brady.
NFL world pumped up for an epic rematch
Looking at what happened last year, and reading into the message of Mahomes, the fans are more than pleased with the upcoming game.
Where Patrick shared a clock, this fan suggested that he should be rather concerned about the historically unfavorable matchup.
Your alarm bells should be going off.

Another Twitter user took a dig at the Chiefs’ player, by indicating that Burrow is clear of him.
Joe’s son is tweeting again.

On the hand, the supporters of Mahomes do not believe that their star will fall to the Bungles again.
