In order to extend their reign atop the AFC, the New England Patriots have to beat one of the best young players in the NFL and a head coach hungry to win his first Super Bowl in Sunday's AFC Championship Game.
The Patriots are 10-4 all-time in the AFC Championship Game, with eight of those victories coming under head coach Bill Belichick.
However, New England's suffered three AFC Championship defeats on the road since Tom Brady and Belichick took control of the AFC, which gives the top-seeded Chiefs hope they can return to the Super Bowl for the first time since 1970.
