The Chiefs also have to play the Chargers and Broncos twice, along with the Indianapolis Colts and San Francisco 49ers, who figure to be right back in the playoff hunt as well in 2022. Buffalo Bills vs Kansas City Chiefs: Live Game Watch The NFL Divisional round of the playoffs concludes with the Bills vs Chiefs on Sunday Night. In the first half, he was flawless, throwing for 220 yards, 3 touchdowns, no. Mahomes had a night and day difference between the first and second half of the AFC title game. Perhaps this weakness gets solved in 2022, but if not, the Chiefs may struggle with their toughest in the league schedule, which contains a stunning eight games against 2021 playoff teams. See y’all next year Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes is shouldering the blame for his team’s overtime loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in the AFC championship game. The only commanding road victories the Chiefs had in 2022 were against the Washington Commanders, a team which figures to once again be near the bottom of the standings, and the Raiders, who the Chiefs blew out in both meetings in 2021.Īgainst non-Raiders playoff teams in 2021, the Chiefs went 4-3 which sounds fine, but it misses the added context of a 13-7 win against a frankly hapless Green Bay Packers team that had Jordan Love at the helm, along with a blowout win against a Steelers squad that was lucky to make the playoffs. Long a Josh Allen supporter, Simms believes that the Buffalo Bills quarterback has usurped Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs as the top player at his position in the sport. All three of those teams are either 2021 playoff teams, or playoff-caliber teams, not to mention the Chiefs also logged fairly narrow road wins against the Broncos, Philadelphia agles and Chargers, all playoff-caliber teams in 2022. They finished 5-3 on the road, dropping games on the road to the Cincinnati Bengals, Baltimore Ravens, and a blowout loss away to the Tennessee Titans. Remember what I mentioned about the Chiefs not playing a road playoff game since 2013? The Chiefs also weren’t exactly a great road team in 2021.
