Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen received a strong reality check about the NFL Playoffs with Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs out.

Seventeen years apart, Mahomes and Brady suffered season-ending knee injuries after Super Bowl losses, sparking striking parallels in their careers.

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes sustained a torn ACL in Kansas City’s 16-13 defeat to the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Mahomes will miss the remainder of the season, and following this loss, the Chiefs have officially been eliminated from playoff contention.

As the Chiefs struggle through a disappointing season, Patrick Mahomes received a bold prediction regarding the Super Bowl.

Chiefs vice president Rick Burkholder outlined Patrick Mahomes' recovery timeline after the quarterback suffered ACL and LCL injuries in Sunday's loss to the Chargers.

Mahomes threw three interceptions and no touchdowns in the Chiefs' 20-10 loss to Houston that dealt a major blow to their playoff hopes. Hurts threw four interceptions, lost a fumble and had no TDs in a 22-19 overtime loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Kansas City Chiefs’ stunning fall has turned one of the NFL’s most dominant dynasties into a cautionary tale. Just one season after a 15-2 campaign, the Chiefs are now 6-8 and officially out of playoff contention.
