KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The previous time Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen saw each other in the heat of competition wasn't at Arrowhead Stadium during their epic January playoff game, when the Chiefs quarterback rallied past Allen and his Bills for an overtime victory and a return to the AFC title game.
In fact, it wasn't on a football field at all.
And both turned out to be losers.
It happened in June, when the uber-competitive QBs teamed up against Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady in a match-play event in Las Vegas. Mahomes and Allen led after the first eight holes in the 12-hole exhibition, only to watch as Brady tied it up at the 10th and Rodgers walked in a winning birdie putt on the final hole.
