Excerpt:
"Since 2014, there have been a total of 11 AFC or NFC title games that have been rematches from the regular season and in those 11 games, the team that won during the regular season has gone 9-2 in the title game rematch. I should also point out that one of those two wins only happened because the officiating crew decided not to throw a pass interference flag on the Rams when they beat the Saints in January 2019. So if we take that fluke game out, then the team that won in the regular season is 9-1 in the conference title game rematch, which is definitely an advantage for the Bengals (and the 49ers for that matter, since they swept the Rams this year). "

Didn't know this, another reason to be positive in a W against the Chiefs. Rock On

The last QB to win the AFC championship game in their first try was Brady in 2001. 

Sometimes trends are just trends. We'll see which one proves correct this go around!

Yes we will see. Ironically the QB Burrow reminds me of the most in mental makeup is Brady.

Height, accuracy, will power, fearlessness etc.

These are all uncanny comparisons between the two.
