The Kansas City Chiefs are heading to the AFC Title Game once again, but they'll have an unfamiliar playoff opponent in the Cincinnati Bengals. Just a few weeks ago, Joe Burrow and Co. beat the Chiefs in a 34-31 thriller and Andy Reid knows he can't take this team for granted on Sunday.

Via Pro Football Talk:

“They made big plays on us on both sides of the ball. They were able to slow us down and then pick it up on the offensive side,” the Chiefs coach said. “So, we’ve got to do a better job all the way around, special teams included. Every phase can be better.

“They beat us. It wasn’t a fluke. They beat us, so they’re a good football team and it’s important that we have a great week of preparation here, and that’s one reason why the urgency level is there even yesterday once the game was over to get busy.”

Burrow and the Bengals beat the top-seed Tennessee Titans on a game-winning field goal from rookie Evan McPherson. He did the exact same thing to the Chiefs at the end of regulation in Week 17.

In that game, Burrow tore apart Kansas City's defense, helping the offense rack up 475 yards on the day as well. That being said, they will have to do a much better job at containing the lethal combination of Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase, who are having their way this season.
