The Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs will meet again in the NFL Playoffs. The two teams have had classic matchups in the postseason the last few years, and Sunday’s Divisional Round game could prove no different.
Things will be different for a key reason this time though. The game won’t be played at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City. Instead, the setting turns to Western New York. Highmark Stadium will play host to this year’s game, turning the tables on things. The last two times the teams met in the playoffs, it happened in Kansas City.
Buffalo tackle Dion Dawkins is well aware of the differences in environments. Dawkins boasted about Highmark Stadium and the fact that the game is in Buffalo. In turn, he wished Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs “good luck.”
ESPN.com wrote that Dawkins said, “Mahomes has only been here once. So, he’s never been here. Simple as that. Pat has never been to the Bills’ stadium in full.
“The environment will be different, and not to say it’s in our favor, but the stadium is in our favor. Stadium is us. That helps us. I don’t care what nobody says. This is the most dopest feeling I’ve ever had. We’re having two back-to-back playoff games at home. Come on now, like we get to leave and go eat wings. It’s cool. So good luck.”
Another stirring edition of this rivalry is expected this weekend.
