No. 1 Kansas City Chiefs def. No. 2 Buffalo Bills 32-29

The Kansas City Chiefs are headed to the Super Bowl for the fifth time in six seasons following their AFC Championship win over the Buffalo Bills. Patrick Mahomes had a strong performance, throwing for 245 yards on 18-of-26 passing with one touchdown and rushing for 43 yards on 11 carries with two touchdowns.

The Bills managed to tie the game at 29-29 in the fourth quarter, but the Chiefs were able to work their way down the field on the ensuing possession to score a field goal with 3:33 left in the game. Buffalo faced a do-or-die situation on their next drive but failed to convert on a critical fourth-down play as the Chiefs’ defense came up with a clutch stop.

The Bills continue to struggle against the Chiefs in the postseason, losing all four playoff meetings since 2020. They also dropped their eighth straight road playoff game, while Josh Allen fell to 0-2 in AFC Championship appearances.

The Chiefs now have a chance at a championship three-peat and will face the Philadelphia Eagles in the Super Bowl. This will be a rematch of Super Bowl 57, where the Chiefs defeated the Eagles to win the championship.
