We’ve reached the AFC Championship Game, and the Kansas City Chiefs are still alive.
All season long, fans and analysts have debated which team would be able to take them down, yet here they are.
Only a handful of teams are left in contention, so anybody’s chances of beating them are almost ending.
However, the narrative hasn’t changed at all.
When asked whether someone could stop them, Las Vegas Raiders star Maxx Crosby stated that the Philadelphia Eagles were the most likely candidate.
Talking on SPORTSRADIO 94 WIP, the star defensive end argued that the Eagles were the most dominant team in the trenches.

He raved about their offensive and defensive lines, believing their ability to establish the run with Saquon Barkley would make all the difference.
Of course, that makes sense, and as a divisional rival, Crosby is very familiar with Andy Reid’s team.
The Eagles are one of the best teams in the league, and there’s no reason to believe they can’t beat the Chiefs or anybody else.
Then again, this has been a never-ending story with the Chiefs.
People continue to claim that they’re mortal and vulnerable and can be beaten, yet no one beats them.
Patrick Mahomes is 16-3 in the playoffs in his career, and he’s never gone home before the AFC Championship Game.
The Chiefs might not play the flashiest brand of football right now, but they’re still the team to beat until proven otherwise.
