ORCHARD PARK – One reason why the Buffalo Bills are playing the Kansas City Chiefs in the last NFL divisional round playoff game of the weekend Sunday night was due to the Bills having just played their wild-card game the previous Monday.
That, of course, was due to the blizzard that engulfed the Buffalo region and made it impossible for the Bills to play the Steelers in their original 1 p.m. Sunday window. The NFL recognized that scheduling the Bills any earlier in the divisional round would have been a little unfair, especially since the Chiefs played their wild-card game last Saturday and already had a rest advantage.

However, even if Bills-Steelers hadn’t been pushed back a day, Bill-Chiefs still would have been placed into the cleanup spot this weekend because their matchup is without question the juiciest of the four games.

Texans at Ravens, Packers at 49ers, and Buccaneers at Lions are obviously important games, but they simply do not come close to Chiefs at Bills, Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen, given all the recent history between these two teams.

“Exciting, exhilarating, fun, most-watched game, however you want to put it and sum it up,” Bills defensive tackle Ed Oliver said. “When the Bills and the Chiefs play, everybody just seems to be watching.”
Buffalo and Kansas City have forged a rivalry that is nearly as intense as if they were division antagonists. And really, they’ve played almost as often as division rivals would have since 2020.
The Bills have played fellow AFC East inhabitants New York and New England eight times since 2020, and this will be their seventh showdown with the Chiefs – three in the playoffs where the Chiefs so far won both, and four in the regular season with the Bills winning three.
If this was the World Series or a Stanley Cup playoff series, Sunday’s game would be for all the marbles, Game 7 if you will, and for just the second time in this recent epoch, it’s being played in Buffalo.
“It feels like we’ve played each other 100 times over the last like (four) years,” Mahomes said. “The Bills are a great challenge, I think everybody understands that. They’ve gotten my number a lot of times. We’ve been lucky enough to get them in the playoffs, but they beat us earlier this year, so we understand that we’re going to have to play our best football to win the game, especially at their place.”
