Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills know the feeling all too well. But the Bills fell short of their ultimate goal Sunday night with a 27-24 loss in the divisional round — again — and against the Kansas City Chiefs — again. It was the third straight year the Bills' season ended in this round of the playoffs. Political Cartoons View All 253 ImagesTwo years ago, it was “13 Seconds” — the amount of time it took Patrick Mahomes to drive the Chiefs for a tying field goal. Tyler Bass missed a 44-yard field goal attempt with 1:43 left, and the Chiefs ran out the clock from there.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Travis Kelce caught two touchdown passes from Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs advanced to their sixth straight AFC championship game with a 27-24 win over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night. The defending Super Bowl champion Chiefs (13-6) move on to Baltimore to face Lamar Jackson and the conference’s top-seeded Ravens, who beat Houston 34-10 on Saturday. Baltimore defeated Kansas City 36-35 in their most recent regular-season matchup in Week 2 of the 2021 season. And the Chiefs ended Buffalo’s season for the third time in four years, including a 38-24 decision at Kansas City in the 2020 season AFC championship game. It was another disappointing finish for a Bills team that won its fourth consecutive AFC East title, and was on a six-game roll since a 20-17 win at Kansas City on Dec. 10.

CNN —Taylor Swift has become part of the “Chiefs Kingdom” and embraced by the team during her relationship with tight end Travis Kelce, according to Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes. “For us, there were a couple of jokes here and there at the beginning, but she’s just part of Chiefs Kingdom now. She’s part of the team,” Mahomes told Nate Burleson on “CBS Mornings.”“It’s cool that she’s embraced Brittany (Mahomes’ wife), and they’ve built a friendship as well.

(AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs have scored an NFL-worst 53 points in the second half of games this season, which equates to just over five per game, and they sure could have used that measly total against the Eagles on Monday night. The Chiefs were shut out in the second half for the third consecutive game, this time by Philadelphia in their highly anticipated Super Bowl rematch, allowing Jalen Hurts and Co. to rally from a 10-point deficit for a 21-17 victory at Arrowhead Stadium. “All season long,” Mahomes said, “we haven't played good football in the second half. "I’ve got to be better.”Had he held onto the ball, the Chiefs could have turned a 17-14 lead into a two-possession game. After the teams traded punts, the Chiefs had one last chance with the ball at their own 9-yard line and 2:49 left.

Mahomes finished 20 of 30 for a season-low 185 yards in his European debut, but the Chiefs’ offense struggled in the second half. Miami hadn’t been shut out in the first half of a game since Week 2 of the 2021 season. After a game that could have playoff implications — the Chiefs have hosted a record five straight AFC championship games — Chiefs coach Andy Reid said the flight home will feel shorter. The Chiefs haven’t lost back-to-back games since early in the 2021 season and stayed undefeated in international games.
