For the first time since 1994, the KC Chiefs are advancing to the next round of the playoffs.

The Chiefs have not played in an AFC Divisional Round game since the 2003 season when they hosted the Indianapolis Colts at Arrowhead Stadium. That game was known as the no punt game, as it was the first NFL playoff game to not feature a single punt by either team.

This game will be played in Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, and we all know how diehard those Patriots fans are. Point being is that it’s going to be cold and it’s going to be loud.

The offense will need to bring their A-game to Foxborough and limit their mistakes. They can’t give Tom Brady any extra opportunities to put points on the board, and the defense absolutely can’t let him and Rob Gronkowski get into any type of a rhythm.

The Patriots are a good football team, and that’s been the case since Brady took over as quarterback in the early 2000s. They’ve been the team that many people love to hate, and the Chiefs have a chance to play spoiler and knock them out of the postseason early.

Just imagine… If the Kansas City Chiefs win in Foxborough (it is possible, guys), then they’ll be moving onto their first AFC Championship game since 1994 when Joe Montana was the quarterback in Kansas City.
