Following their victory over the Cincinnati Bengals last week, the Kansas City Chiefs were assured of their spot as the AFC's third seed. While it was unclear whom Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs will take on in the wildcard round, the final game of the regular season ensured that they will be facing the Dolphins at Arrowhead.
The Miami Dolphins vs Buffalo Bills game provided fans with a thrilling finale to the NFL regular season. With their 21-14 victory, the Bills won the AFC East title. That not only decided the divisional crown but also had a significant impact on the playoff bracket.
After losing in Week 18, the Dolphins, guaranteed a No. 6 seed, will play the Chiefs in the Wildcard Round next week in Kansas City.

It will be Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes' first wild-card game. This game will also be an emotional homecoming for Tyreek Hill, who began his NFL career with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2016. The star wide receiver left the Chiefs for a $120 million contract with the Dolphins in 2022. And it will be his first game in Arrowhead since his departure.
Earlier this season, the Chiefs beat the Dolphins 21-14 in Germany in a Week 9 international series game. But this wildcard clash has everything at stakes, with Tua making his playoff debut and Mahomes looking to carry the franchise to back-to-back Super Bowls.
