Chiefs fans celebrate Bengals’ win at Tennessee, which just may help Kansas City
The stakes for the Chiefs’ AFC Divisional Playoff game against the Buffalo Bills just became a little more meaningful.
Rather than travel to Nashville to faced the top-seeded Titans in the AFC Championship Game, the Chiefs-Bills winner will play host to the title game.
The Tennessee Titans lost 19-16 to the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday, opening the door for the No. 2-seeded Chiefs or No. 3 Bills to play at home the following week.
Chiefs fans were thrilled at the thought of Arrowhead Stadium potentially being the site of an AFC Championship Game for a fourth straight season.
Here is what fans, including a former Chiefs player, were saying on Twitter.
Handle our business tomorrow!!

This season for the chiefs feels like 2019. the year we were “finished” early. Got the 2 seed. Then faced 2 teams that beat us earlier in the year to play them again beat them and win the SuperBowl. #feelslike2019 #ChiefsKingdom
