The game time and TV network for the AFC Championship Game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Buffalo Bills has been set, following a riveting round of action in the Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs.

Buffalo advanced to the AFC Championship Game by knocking off the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday evening in brutally cold conditions in a game that came down to the wire.

Turnovers were a major problem for the Ravens, and the Bills made sure they capitalized just about every time they had an opportunity. Meanwhile, quarterback Josh Allen was sharp again, pretty much nails throughout the contest.

The game finished 27-25 in favor of Buffalo, which locked up a playoff rematch against Kansas City.

Kansas City advanced to the AFC Championship Game with a 23-14 win over the Houston Texans on Saturday afternoon. The game was never really in doubt, as the Chiefs never trailed in the contest.

Quarterback Patrick Mahomes was sharp as he guided the Chiefs to the AFC Championship Game for the seventh consecutive season. Mahomes finished the game 16-of-25 passing for 177 yards and a touchdown, while also rushing seven times for 14 yards.

He’ll be the player to beat if anyone hopes to stop the Chiefs, who have been dominant in the postseason since his arrival.

But you’ll also have to stop talented tight end Travis Kelce, a seemingly ageless wonder. Kelce was dominant in the playoff win over the Texans, hauling in seven passes for 117 yards and a touchdown.

In any case, the contest between two of the NFL’s best teams figures to once again be thoroughly entertaining. And now we know exactly when and where it will be played.
