Throughout the entire game, Patrick Mahomes eschewed the Buffalo Bills’ pass rush, giving the Chiefs every chance to sack him and winning 27–24.
At least once, Bills fans attempted to reach Mahomes as he said hello to Chiefs supporters before heading off the field. The quarterback was being hurled snowballs, which he had to dodge.
Throughout the game, snowballs were thrown from Highmark Stadium, particularly when the Chiefs were attempting to score in the end zone.
Mahomes completed the game on 17 of 23 passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns, both to Travis Kelce. Since the Chiefs’ playoff game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on January 21, 2023, this was the tight end’s first multi-touchdown performance.

They surpassed Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski to establish the record for the most postseason touchdowns by a quarterback-receiver combination.
“It speaks to Travis and his work, to be able to go out there and make plays in big games,” Mahomes stated. “Anything with Brady and Gronk in it is worth passing.” since those two players are among the best.”
For the sixth time in a row, Kansas City made it to the AFC Championship Game. They will take on the Baltimore Ravens this time, who are the top-seeded team in the conference and have never hosted a conference championship game.
Mahomes stated of the Ravens, “There’s no weakness there.” It will require our utmost effort. They handle it all—offensive, defensive, and special teams. We’re excited for the challenge because it’s always a great one and that stadium is going to be awesome.”
