Cameras caught the epic message Patrick Mahomes had for Josh Allen following Sunday’s thriller between the Kansas City Chiefs and Buffalo Bills.
10 months after their epic meeting in the 2023 Divisional Round (a 27-24 Kansas City victory), the undefeated Chiefs returned to Highmark Stadium to meet the Bills. This time, Josh Allen got the better of Mahomes in a 30-21 victory to hand Kansas City their first loss of the season.
Gracious in defeat, cameras and microphones caught Mahomes delivering a powerful message and promise to Allen after the game:

Patrick Mahomes had a frustrating outing in what marks his first career loss in Buffalo. He was just 23-of-33 for 196 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. Allen outplayed his rival with 262 passing yards, one touchdown, one interception, 55 rushing yards and a rushing score in the victory.
Josh Allen Evens Head-To-Head Series vs. Patrick Mahomes
With Sunday’s victory, Josh Allen is now 4-4 in his career against the three-time Super Bowl champion.
Of course, Allen’s Bills have lost all three playoff meetings to Mahomes (2020 AFC Championship Game, 2021 and 2023 Divisional Rounds). Nonetheless, Sunday’s victory was another firm reminder that Allen and the Bills are more than capable of thwarting a Kansas City three-peat.

I don’t know how it is possible, but every week seems to bring yet another missed call that greatly benefit the Kansas City Chiefs and now the Buffalo Bills are feeling the burn.
The Chiefs are once again at the center of controversy, with fans accusing them of receiving favorable treatment from referees.
The latest incident occurred in a game against the Buffalo Bills, during which a missed facemask penalty on Chris Jones sparked intense outrage.
Bills’ running back Ty Johnson could be seen on replay getting his facemask grabbed and his head being turned on his run.
here is the sick part about this no call
the refs BLATANTLY MISS this face mask
but next Saturday the NFL will go and FINE Chris Jones
I’ll guess either $11,255 or $16,883
disgusting the NFL will not call it right but still get a money grab

However, no flag would be thrown, and it has once again left many viewers to question the integrity of the officiating crew and whether the Chiefs are getting an unfair advantage.
THE REFS DID NOT CALL THIS A FACEMASK PENALTY ON THE #CHIEFS…

Once again, the Chiefs are in a close game, and it looks like it might come down to the final possession.
Chiefs Looking To Continue Undefeated Season While Bills Want to Find Chink In Their Armor
Kansas City returned to Buffalo for the first time since last year’s AFC Divisional Round game.
The Chiefs could set a franchise record for wins to start a season, but BBuffalo certainly does not want that to happen, as they are also in the midst of a good season and would love to have a first-round bye.
In order to get that done, the Chiefs need to start losing games.
The Bills can possibly start that on Sunday.
