After last year’s AFC Championship game, you already knew that the Kansas City Chiefs were waiting for their next opportunity to strike against the New England Patriots. When the schedule for this season was released, the Chiefs had this contest circled on their calendar and I bet the Patriots did the same.
Sunday afternoon, the Chiefs and Patriots will face one another for the first time since New England punched their ticket to the Super Bowl almost a year ago. While times have changed, the Chiefs and Patriots are still two of the best teams in the AFC.
