come into the game with their last 10 wins.<\/p>\n<p>The Chiefs have held the AFC Championship for five consecutive seasons and currently have one Super Bowl title. Sunday&#8217;s loss is devastating.<\/p>\n<p>And while the defending Super Bowl runners-up Bengals have perked up over what they believe has been neglected this postseason, they believe they&#8217;re a team only to deliver yet another debilitating blow to the Chiefs. .<\/p>\n<p>The Bengals&#8217; leader and root of their bragging rights is quarterback Joe Burrow, who has warned that each of the last three meetings between the teams has been decided by three points.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We know who we&#8217;re playing against. They&#8217;ve been in this game the last five seasons, and they&#8217;re all in that stadium,&#8221; Burrow said.  \u201cSo for me they are still a team to beat and we are here for them, but I know it will be difficult. I know you&#8217;re playing against players like that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignleft\">\n\t<\/aside>\n<p>In last year&#8217;s conference title game, Mahomes threw three TD passes in the first half before Burrow led a dramatic comeback for the Bengals.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Preparation breeds confidence,&#8221; Bengals head coach Zach Taylor said this week.  &#8220;That&#8217;s what Joe and all the players see. So they&#8217;re relaxed when they walk the field on Sunday.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>For all these reasons, the pressure in this game is on the Chiefs.<\/p>\n<p>Chiefs receiver Juju Smith-Schuster said of Cincinnati, &#8220;I&#8217;m sure a lot of people are noticing their comments. The Bengals have always been Lara&#8217;s team and back it up. And they&#8217;re doing it again in the postseason.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Bengals outright bullied the Bills last Sunday to advance to this game despite an offensive line missing three of their five starters.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Listen, they should probably be confident,&#8221; Reed said. [in a row against Kansas City]. that&#8217;s ok. we&#8217;re still going to play games. they know us we know them And we&#8217;re all looking for that little extra that you can throw at them. .  &#8220;<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/__i\/rss\/rd\/articles\/CBMiWWh0dHBzOi8vbnlwb3N0LmNvbS8yMDIzLzAxLzI4L2JlbmdhbHMtZ2VhcmVkLXRvLXBsYXktc3BvaWxlci1mb3ItY2hpZWZzLXN1cGVyLWJvd2wtcGxhbnMv0gFdaHR0cHM6Ly9ueXBvc3QuY29tLzIwMjMvMDEvMjgvYmVuZ2Fscy1nZWFyZWQtdG8tcGxheS1zcG9pbGVyLWZvci1jaGllZnMtc3VwZXItYm93bC1wbGFucy9hbXAv?oc=5\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] Kansas City, Missouri \u2014 On the surface, this looks like a dangerous game for the Chiefs.
