The Kansas City Chiefs are gearing up to play the Cincinnati Bengals in one of the most eagerly anticipated games of the 2024 NFL season, with kickoff just under 24 hours away. The spotlight is on the quarterback duel between Joe Burrow and Patrick Mahomes. Leading up to the game, Burrow has praised Mahomes, saying, “Pat is one of a kind. He’s great at extending plays, moving to find open receivers, and really understands the game. It’s always a big challenge to play against him.”
After a disappointing loss to the New England Patriots in Week 1, Burrow and the Bengals are extra motivated to secure a win in Kansas City. Despite Mahomes’ impressive achievements—three Super Bowl titles and two MVP awards—Burrow has had a strong track record against him. Burrow is 3-1 in his career against Mahomes and the Chiefs, with 1,252 yards, nine touchdowns, and three interceptions in those games. However, the Chiefs did defeat the Bengals in the 2023 AFC Championship and went on to win the Super Bowl. Although it’s only Week 2, this game could be crucial for the playoff race if both teams are vying for top spots in the AFC later in the season.
