These two quarterbacks have gotten to know each other well over the past two seasons, and they will be meeting again tonight, as the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs battle for a spot in next week's AFC Championship Game. The Bills and Chiefs last faced each other in Week 5 of the regular season, with the Bills winning 38-20 at Arrowhead Stadium. But the Bills will be looking for additional payback after last year's AFC Championship Game loss.
