If you’re trying to beat Patrick Mahomes, settling for field goals isn’t the best strategy. But it’s a tack the Buffalo Bills took repeatedly in Sunday’s AFC championship loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. The Bills twice faced fourth-and-short inside the 10-yard line with a chance to cut a two-score deficit to one with a touchdown. They twice kicked gimme field goals instead. Bills play it safe before halftime The first opportunity arrived at the end of the first half. With Kansas City… Source link

Patrick Mahomes is 25 years old. He has already achieved more than just about every quarterback to play in the NFL before him. Mahomes has been the Kansas City Chiefs’ starter for three seasons. He has one overtime loss in the AFC championship game, a Super Bowl win and he’ll be going to his second Super Bowl after the Chiefs had a surprisingly easy 38-24 win over the Buffalo Bills in the AFC championship game Sunday. They’ll play the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Tom Brady — who handed… Source link

Every year around this time, the NFL coaching carousel winds down. And every year around this time, the league’s stunning lack of diversity in its front-facing leadership positions rears its ugly head. This year is no different. Oh, we’ve got a bit of a respite at the general manager spot, as two African Americans — Brad Holmes and Terry Fontenot — have been named general managers of the Detroit Lions and Atlanta Falcons, respectively. That brings the league-wide total of Black GMs to… Source link

The Kansas City Chiefs won on Sunday and advanced to their third straight AFC championship game. And nobody was talking about that after the game. Patrick Mahomes, considered by many to be the NFL’s best player, suffered an injury in Sunday’s AFC divisional-round playoff game against the Cleveland Browns. He was hit on a called run play and was unsteady as he got up. The Chiefs said he was being evaluated for a concussion and ruled him out shortly after. Kansas City survived, barely,… Source link

It’s hard to say a 25-year-old could be passing the torch. Maybe it’s more fair to wonder if Patrick Mahomes will be sharing the torch with Josh Allen. We’ve heard for so long this season that the Kansas City Chiefs will win the Super Bowl that it seems weird to suggest anyone else can win. Suggesting the Chiefs might not be the best team seems even crazier. If you’ve seen Allen and the Buffalo Bills play lately, it doesn’t seem so weird.
