The near annual playoff matchups between Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen are hardly unprecedented. The one-sided nature of the postseason rivalry between the two star quarterbacks is more unusual.

Six players on the Kansas City Chiefs' active roster are still around from January 2019, when they lost to the Patriots in overtime in the AFC championship game.

The targets can always change but here's an early look at 7 players the Dallas Cowboys could consider in free agency.

Bills NFL draft history The Buffalo Bills now have their franchise quarterback in Josh Allen... but every team, including the Bills, will tell you it's not easy to find one. It's often the case that teams will take multiple swings on QBs throughout the years at the NFL draft in order to find their man.

With the Chiefs' star quarterback hitting best buddy Kelce seven times for 117 yards and a touchdown, Kansas City rolled to a 23-14 victory Saturday.

The first time Patrick Mahomes led the Kansas City Chiefs to the AFC championship game, back in January 2019, he was a first-year starter who had just guided a long-suffering franchise to a divisional rout of the Indianapolis Colts.

The Georgia native has had a well-traveled professional career. He was selected by the Cleveland Browns in the first round of the 2015 NFL Draft. After two years with the Browns, he joined the Kansas City Chiefs and started for eight games as the franchise ultimately defeated the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LIV.

Buffalo Bills' head coach Sean McDermott provided injury updates on CB, LB and safety on Wednesday in Orchard Park.

Mahomes can join them on Sunday with a fourth playoff win against Buffalo. A loss would tie Allen with Aaron Rodgers (0-4 against San Francisco) for the most defeats against one opponent in the playoffs. The Los Angeles Rams seem to bring out the best in Saquon Barkley.
