Joe Burrow will look to take his record against Patrick Mahomes to 4-0 this weekend as the Cincinnati Bengals and Kansas City Chiefs meet in the AFC Championship game.
After beating Josh Allen’s Buffalo Bills in the divisional round, Joe Burrow ensured the Cincinnati Bengals’ place in the AFC Championship game for a spot in the Super Bowl.
Across Burrow’s career, he has matched up with Patrick Mahomes three times and is undefeated, including in last year’s AFC Championship game.
If you take away their rookie seasons, Burrow and Mahomes have made the AFC Championship game every year of their respective careers and are widely regarded as the NFL’s two best quarterbacks.
