Some similar cases of familiarity loom with the AFC’s final four, too, though not as many.
In the upcoming divisional round, the Bills and Chiefs are meeting at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City again after playing for the AFC title there last season.
If the Chiefs and Titans both advance to play next week, that’ll be a rematch of the 2019 AFC Championship, though it would be in Tennessee this time with the Titans holding the top seed in that conference.
If it’s Bills at Titans, those two teams met in Nashville in Week 6.
The outlier, of course, is Cincinnati, with the Bengals having won their first playoff game in 31 years last week. They’re in the divisional round for the first time since 1990, when they played at the L.A. Raiders, who have changed locations twice since then.
Should the Bengals move on from here, they would make their first appearance in the AFC title game since the 1988 postseason, when they beat Buffalo to reach the franchise’s second Super Bowl.
