The Kansas City Chiefs have been nothing short of sensational this season. They have got their combinations right, and their offense led by Patrick Mahomes has been simply magnificent. In the Divisional Round clash, they were given a mighty scare by the Buffalo Bills.

Touted as one of the biggest rising stars of the NFL, Josh Allen almost took the game away from the Chiefs, however, Mahomes worked his magic in the final moments and guided his side home. In the Conference Championship finale, the Chiefs will take on the Bengals.

The Cincinnati Bengals were clearly the underdogs when they entered into the playoffs, however, they played like true champions and defeated the Raiders and the Titans, respectively, in their playoff games. While Joe Burrow has led the Bengals beautifully, Nick Wright reckons that he still can’t match Patrick Mahomes.

I’ve seen the Chiefs score 54 in the postseason. I saw the Bengals last week score 1 touchdown. I like Joe Burrow, but he can’t go toe-to-toe with Patrick Mahomes because nobody can,” Nick claimed, adding that the Bengals must be ready for a culture shock, similar to the one the Bills faced.

He went on to add that the Bills had the absolute best defense, however, even they were caught off-guard by magnificent Mahomes. Wright also said, “I like Joe Burrow’s style, I like his swag, I like his confidence, but it will be somewhat shattered this weekend when he gets beaten by a couple of Touchdowns.”

Indeed, the Bengals have a gigantic task ahead of them and the Chiefs will walk into the encounter as favorites, but one must not forget that the Bengals have a knack for producing incredible performances under pressure. They defeated the Chiefs the last time these two teams faced each other and they sure can do it again.
