Chiefs-Bills rivalry intensifies with Patrick Mahomes' regular-season struggles and defensive challenges

The Kansas City Chiefs have developed a significant rivalry with the Buffalo Bills, serving as the benchmark for each other in recent years. Patrick Mahomes has struggled against the Bills in regular-season games, with a 7:5 TD:INT ratio and a 1-3 record, though he often improves in the postseason. On defense, Chris Jones's presence is substantial, with the cornerback performance, except for standout Trent McDuffie, being a vulnerability the Bills are likely to target. Meanwhile, Chamarri Conner has stepped up this season, contributing effectively to the defense.
