Patrick Mahomes’ Kansas City Chiefs are back in their usual spot: the conference championship game. And there will be a tough opponent waiting for them.
The Chiefs beat the Buffalo Bills on the road 27-24 in the Divisional Round of the playoffs on Sunday night at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, N.Y. The win means Kansas City has advanced to the AFC Championship Game for the sixth straight year — every year that Mahomes has been the team’s starting quarterback.
The difference this year is that the Chiefs will be on the road for the conference championship game. They have to play at the Baltimore Ravens, which Mahomes knows will be a challenge.
During his postgame interview with CBS’ Tracy Wolfson on the field, Mahomes was asked about facing the Ravens next weekend.
“There’s no weakness there,” Mahomes said of the Ravens.
“It’s going to take our best effort. Defense, offense, special teams, they do it all. It’s always a great challenge, and that stadium’s gonna be rocking. So we’re excited for the challenge,” Mahomes added.

Baltimore went 13-4 in the regular season and was the only team in the NFL to post a record better than 12-5. They had a bye for the Wild Card Round of the playoffs and then demolished the Houston Texans 34-10 in the Divisional Round on Saturday.
Though the Ravens are a tough team and have “no weakness” according to Mahomes, the Chiefs won’t be an easy team to beat either, especially after they just proved they can win in a tough environment on the road.
